How often can I repeat Laser Hair Removal treatment?
As long as the hair follicle or surrounding skin is not red, sore
or inflamed, treatment can be repeated after 24 hours. Most
people wait 3–4 weeks between treatments to see which hairs
have been shed and to identify new regrowth. The timing for
follow on treatments is not critical. Choose a time which is
convenient for you. Avoid excessive treatment on the same
region at one time. This may cause reddening and swelling.
How many treatments will I need?
Laser hair reduction is generally considered to be effective
and permanent after 6 treatments over a 6 month period.
This varies from person to person and depends on the area
you are treating, hair density, your hair's growth cycle and
colour. Dark hair on fair skin responds to laser therapy best,
but both dark and fair hair may take several treatments for
long-term results. Some individuals may require more, and
some fewer treatments, to achieve satisfaction. Initially with
each treatment you will notice a gradual thinning/reduction of
hair growth in the treated area. Women who suffer excessive
hair growth due to male type hormones are likely to require
long term maintenance.

What areas can I treat?
Most body hair can be removed using Laser Hair Removal -
the most common areas are the face, underarms, legs, chest,
back and bikini line. We do NOT recommend using the Salon
Laser Scanning Hair Remover on eyebrows.
Can I use Laser Hair Removal on sensitive skin?
Yes, the laser reacts with the hair, so the surrounding skin will
not be affected.
What does it feel like?
Most people don't feel anything, although one or more mild
'pin prick' sensations may be felt.
Can I use other hair removal methods between treatments?
Because the Salon Laser Scanning Hair Remover needs a
hair to be present in the follicle hair removal methods which
pluck the hair, such as waxing, epilators and tweezing are NOT
suitable for use between treatments. Bleaching hairs is also
NOT suitable as it removes the pigment and renders the laser
ineffective. Shaving, micro-dermabrasion discs and cream
depilatories are ideal for use between treatments.
