1. Initial Consultation & Patch Test

Every journey begins with a personalised consultation. During this session:

• We assess your skin and hair type.
  
   
• Discuss your goals and expectations .  

• Review any underlying medical conditions and medications .
  
   
• Explain the process, potential results and answer your questions.

• Discuss pricing and treatment options.  
  
   
• A patch test /test patch will be performed to ensure your skin reacts safely to the laser and it is comfortable for you. 
  
   

This step is essential for achieving semi permanent hair removal safely and effectively.

2. Understanding the Technology

We use advanced medical-grade lasers suitable for a wide range of skin tones and hair colours. Unlike at-home devices or lower-grade systems, our equipment offers:

• Faster treatment times
  
   
• More precise targeting
  
   
• Reduced discomfort with a built in adjustable cooling system 
  
   
• Better long-term results
  
   

Our laser clinic in Hereford only uses machines operated by trained professionals for maximum safety and results.

🔍 How to Prepare Before Your Treatment

To get the best results from your laser hair removal session, we recommend:

• Avoiding sun exposure or fake tan on the treatment area for at least 2 weeks.
  
   
• Shaving the area 24 hours before your appointment (but avoid waxing, plucking or any removal from the root).
  
   
• Avoiding active skincare ingredients like retinol or glycolic acid near the treatment zone.
  
   

💡 What It Feels Like

Clients often describe the sensation as slightly prickly, however this depends on your skin's sensitivity. You are likely to feel slight warmth, a bit of pressure from the laser handpiece and the odd zap on thicker hairs. Most areas are treated in under 30 minutes, and discomfort is minimal—especially compared to waxing. Our Hereford clients often report that each session gets easier over time. 

📅 How Many Sessions Will You Need?

Laser hair removal works in cycles, targeting hairs in their growth phase. Most people need between 6–8 sessions, spaced around 4–6 weeks apart ( depending on the area ) for optimal results. You’ll begin to see reduced growth after just one treatment! 

🧴 Aftercare Tips

Post-treatment, your skin may be slightly red or feel warm. This typically resolves anywhere from within a few hours or up to 48 hours later . Aftercare includes:

• Avoiding hot showers, saunas, and intense workouts for 24 hours.
  
   
• Using a soothing aloe vera gel or recommended aftercare cream.
  
   
• Applying SPF if the area is exposed to sunlight.
  
   

Our Hereford laser specialists will guide you through every step of the process to ensure your skin stays healthy and protected.
