Laser Hair Removal
Laser Hair Removal at Elite
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser Hair Removal is a safe, advanced treatment designed to reduce unwanted hair by targeting the pigment in the hair follicle. Using medical-grade laser technology, the light energy is absorbed by the hair root, effectively damaging the follicle and preventing future growth. Over time, this leads to smoother, hair-free skin—without the irritation of shaving or the discomfort of waxing.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Hair grows in cycles, and laser treatment is only effective on hairs in the active growth (anagen) phase. Because not all hairs are in this phase at the same time, a course of treatments is essential for the best results.
-
Most clients need 6–8 sessions for significant, long-lasting reduction.
-
Treatments are spaced 4–6 weeks apart (depending on the area).
-
Occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended to keep results optimal.
Your practitioner will create a personalised treatment plan based on your hair type, skin type, and the area being treated.
What to Expect
-
The treatment is quick and precise, with minimal downtime.
-
You may experience slight warmth or a tingling sensation during treatment.
-
Mild redness or sensitivity in the treated area can occur but usually subsides within a few hours.
-
Results build gradually over your course, with smoother skin and less regrowth after each session.
Aftercare Guidance
To protect your skin and ensure the best results:
-
Avoid heat and irritation for 24–48 hours – no hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, or vigorous exercise.
-
Stay out of direct sun and avoid tanning – your skin will be more sensitive. Always wear a high-factor SPF (SPF 30+).
-
Do not wax, pluck, or thread between sessions – shaving is the only method recommended.
-
Moisturise the area to soothe the skin, and use aloe vera if any redness occurs.
-
Avoid perfumed products and active skincare (acids, retinol) for 48 hours post-treatment.
