Frequently Asked Questions

How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal works by applying a single wavelength of light to the skin. It Is thought that the laser light is absorbed by the hair follicles and nearby tissue structures, which are the active growing part of your hair.

Generally the hair follicle is darker, so there is preferential uptake of the energy by the hair follicle causing it to warm up and it subsequently becomes destroyed. This process takes milliseconds.
