Why it is important to top-up your laser hair removal sessions.
Laser hair removal works by targeting the melanin (pigment) in hair follicles, which absorbs the light energy from the laser and converts it into heat. This heat then damages the hair follicles, inhibiting or delaying future hair growth. However, the process isn't 100% effective on all hairs during one session due to the hair growth cycle.
Can I use Retinol every night?
Retinol, a derivative of Vitamin A, is a potent skincare ingredient known for its ability to speed up skin cell turnover and promote collagen production, which can result in smoother, younger-looking skin. However, because it is so potent, it can also cause skin irritation, especially when you first start using it.
Microneedling for acne scars.
Microneedling is a procedure that's used to treat skin conditions by stimulating collagen production. It can be especially effective for acne scars, as it can promote the healing and regeneration of the skin.
Here's a brief explanation of the process:
What is folliculitis?
Folliculitis can occur before or after laser hair removal when the follicles become inflamed, infected or damaged. There could be many reasons why this could occur. Some of the most common reasons is shaving before treatment, if the razor is old or was kept in a damp or wet area for example the shower or bathroom, the blades become rusty (not visible to the eye) and carry bacteria which leads to an infection of the follicles.
Can you have laser hair removal when pregnant?
Laser hair removal is safe and there is no clinical evidence that laser hair removal can affect babies. But there is no long term studies that analyse the effects of laser hair removal on unborn children. So currently no reputable clinic will perform laser hair removal on pregnant women.

Perianal laser hair removal
We get asked many times if we can do laser hair removal in the perianal area.
The answer is, Yes we do. The good thing it is included in both our Hollywood/bikini area zone and also in the buttocks area. So if you decide to choose any of these areas then the perinanal is also included.
All you need to do is make sure the area is shaved really well.
