Excess hair can be time consuming, unsightly, and difficult to remove. Shaving, waxing and hair removal creams are all temporary methods of hair removal and come with a variety of problems, such as razor rash and ingrown hairs.

We are the go-to company for laser hair removal in Plymouth, offering effective and long-lasting solutions. Laser removal can be used in various areas to eliminate or reduce hair on the body by using lasers to target follicles.

Laser Hair removal is the most effective long term way to remove body hair and leaves smooth, clear skin. We offer the most competitive prices, whilst not compromising on quality.

There are many benefits when opting for laser hair removal, including:

  • It’s a quick and easy process
  • Highly accurate
  • Stops ingrown hairs
  • A durable solution
  • Eliminates hair from any area of the body
  • Less painful and effective than other removal techniques

Excess hair can be unsightly, difficult or inconvenient to remove, and grows back quickly. Shaving, waxing and depilatory creams are all temporary methods that must be repeated on a regular basis.
Laser hair removal is the only clinically proven treatment available for permanant hair removal.

At our Plymouth Laser Clinic we use the Laser for permanent hair removal, enabling us to treat all skin types. Your skin is safe in our hands.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

In simple terms, laser hair removal works by focusing an intense beam of light to the treatment area.

This light will reach the hair follicles, where pigment in the hair absorbs it. This absorption damages the follicle and prevents further hair growth, providing a successful solution to removing hair. Only hairs that are in their ‘active’ growth phase will be destroyed. This is why a course of treatments are required.

The rate of hair growth decreases the more treatments you have.

How Many Treatments Are Needed?
Everyone is different, it can depend on your hair colour, the area of the body we are treating, and your individual response. The recommended number is between 6-12 treatments, on average 8 treatments will be needed.

What Areas Can Be Treated?
Most areas of the body are suitable for treatment. The most popular areas are the bikini area, underarms, lip, chin, neck, legs, abdomen and legs.

Is Treatment Suitable For All Hair Colours?
Intense Pulsed Light will not target white, grey or, very blonde hairs. There is not enough pigmentation in these colours for the light to target.
It works best on dark hairs because they contain more pigmentation to absorb the light.

  • A consultation will be necessary as not all individuals will be suited to this procedure. A patch test with one of our qualified clinicians is required before you book a course of treatment. We would advise that you have at least six sessions, and we can divide the payments into monthly instalments to increase affordability if preferable.
