Light is emitted from the laser machine's hand piece and absorbed by melanin (pigment/colour) in the hair. The light is then converted to heat energy, with the aim of damaging the hair follicle and preventing regrowth.

Our EVOLVE technology is suitable for all skin types. There are certain factors that can make you unsuitable for treatment, such as certain medications or medical conditions. Booking a consultation with Emma is the best way to determine if you will be suitable for treatment. It is also important to point out that laser hair removal will not work on grey/white hair due to the absence of pigment in the hair.

There is no concrete answer to this question as it varies so much between individuals. The number of sessions required can depend on genetics, hormones, medications, gender & ethnicity, among other factors. You will definitely require a minimum of 6 treatments for any area, however this could be double for some people. 

Males will need more treatments due to testosterone levels. Women with hormonal disorders/imbalances such as PCOS will also require more treatment/maintenance. Individuals with darker skin types will also require more treatments.

Yes! Laser hair removal should really be called laser hair reduction. Your body has hair follicles all over, some of which may not currently grow hair. Laser treatment may not damage ALL of the stem cells in the hair follicle meaning that over time they can regenerate and result in some more hair growth. It is recommended that you visit us every 12-18 months for a top up treatment to keep any new hairs at bay.

For some people, results can be seen after just a few treatments. You may notice hair growing back slower, hair growing back thinner or patches of hair that do not grow back at all.
