Laser Hair removal

Does laser hurt?

One of the benefits of laser hair removal at Facesbyfbc is that the treatment is virtually painless compared to waxing. Each pulse lasts less than a second, producing a slight tingling feeling. Our advanced laser hair removal machine uses a cooling technology to emit cold air to minimise and reduce any discomfort or heat sensation on the skin.

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal is a highly effective way to achieve long-term hair reduction. It works by sending a concentrated pulse of laser light at the hair follicles. The pigment in the hair follicles absorbs the laser energy, causing heat and damage to the follicle, preventing future hair growth. Over a number of sessions, this procedure decreases or eliminates hair in the treated area, leaving your skin smoother and hairless.

Does laser hair removal have any side effects?

Laser hair removal is overall considered safe and well-tolerated. Many people only suffer relatively minor, temporary side effects, such as redness or mild skin sensitivity, which fades quickly. Our skilled laser technician will keep you comfortable and safe throughout the procedure, allowing you to relax and enjoy the benefits of smooth, hair-free skin.

What laser hair removal machine do you use?‍

At Facesbyfbc, we use one of the world’s most advanced and effective technology. The Soprano Titanium is known for its In-Motion™ technology, this involves gradually heating the skin for a significant reduction in pain which allows a more comfortable yet effective experience. It also has Crystal Freeze™ cooling technology. This feature helps minimise the heat sensation emitted by the laser machine in order to achieve a comfortable treatment.

Can laser be used on any skin type?

At Facesbyfbc we can treat all skin types with our medical grade laser hair removal technology. Our highly trained laser technician uses the Fitzpatrick scale to determine your skin tone at your consultation in order to select the correct parameters for your laser sessions, tailoring the treatment specifically for each individual. Please be advised that your settings may change throughout your course to ensure optimal results.

What do i need to do to prepare for my laser appointment?‍

• Shave the treatment area 12-24 hours prior to your appointment.
• Cleanse & exfoliate your skin atleast 2-3 days prior to your appointment, this will help ensure the laser has an easy obstacle-free route to the hair follicle.
• Avoid waxing, threading or epilating before and in between your laser sessions.
• Do not wear makeup or deodorant if pertaining to treatment area.
• Avoid perfumes, scented body lotions and oils on the area being treated.

When will i see results after having laser hair removal?‍

Results from laser hair removal depend on many factors such as hair type and skin type. Typically, most clients begin to see significant changes around the fifth/sixth session. However it is important to complete your course of sessions to see optimal and long lasting results.
