Laser Hair Removal

Laser Hair Removal

At Brisbane Skin and Laser we only use the latest laser technology with the Candela GentleLASE and GentleYAG Laser systems. Medical-grade laser treatment is safe and does not harm or alter the surrounding skin or tissue. These lasers apply precisely controlled pulses of energy that reach the hair follicles and disable their ability to grow. For comfortability during your treatment our laser technology has built-in cooling devices referred to as cryogen. A spray of cryogen with each laser pulse helps prevent the skin from overheating and causing hot spots. 

Hair grows in cycles, laser hair removal is only effective on hair that is in the Anagen or active growth phase. About 85% of hair is in the anagen phase at any time, which is why multiple laser treatments over a period of time are required to damage and destroy all hair follicles. Your laser technician will consider your skin and hair type before creating a personalised treatment plan as the number of laser treatments is dependent upon this. 

We can not guarantee that hair will not grow back after a series of laser hair removal treatments. Whilst most clients experience significant hair reduction with laser hair removal, each client’s hair growth is influenced by multiple factors, which makes predicting those clients who may not achieve significant reduction in their hair growth impossible.
