Using advanced laser technology, the treatment targets the hair follicles, delivering concentrated light energy that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair shaft. This light energy damages the follicles, inhibiting future hair growth while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.

IPL produces a broad bandwith of light wavelengths, whereas laser produces a single band of light. Laser is more specific to a given target than IPL, and therefore is more effective than IPL and has fewer side effects and complications. 

We proudly use the GentleMax Pro Plus by Candela.

Permanent side effects are rare which may include prolonged redness, excessive swelling, hyper- or hypopigmentation, blistering and purpura (laser bruise) in the treated area—these usually do not last more than a few days.

The treatment time can vary depending on the treatment area and the condition being treated. It can take as little as a few minutes to as long as an hour Both lower legs can often be treated in roughly 15 minutes, as can two full arms or an average-sized man’s half back.

Multiple treatments are required to achieve the full hair removal effect.

Depending on the types of pigmentation and vascular lesions you presented with, our laser technician will discuss with you the required, customised treatment plan prior to the actual procedure.

Improvements are usually seen within the first few treatment sessions (3-4) however typically 8-10 sessions are recommend.

The recommended wait time in between treatments is 6 weeks.

For hair removal, the treatment is usually very tolerable, some patients may feel a slight discomfort, which has been compared to snapping a rubber band against the skin. Body areas which are relatively more sensitive such as upper-lips, genital and fingers may result in a stronger feeling. However, the feeling of discomfort generally resolves quickly and is minimised by our Cryo cooling machine.

After your laser treatment, prevent sun exposure by applying sunscreen SPF 50+. In the first few days after treatment, please do not scrub or rinse the treated areas with abrasive skin cleansers. Our laser technician may advise additional precautions according to your needs.
