How Our Laser Hair Removal Treatment Works

Most of the popular laser hair removal procedures work by converting light energy into heat energy which helps destroy hair follicles from the roots and hampers the growth cycle. With new and improved technologies coming to light, laser hair removal procedures have significantly improved.

Soprano Titanium offers stronger, faster, smarter, and virtually PAIN-FREE solutions! Best of all you can have your Fake Tan or Sun-Kissed Tan and no longer need to wait! No more having long appointments, so this means more time for you! Cut your laser treatment time by at least 70%.

Featuring its exclusive 3D technology, Soprano Titanium combines the three most effective laser wavelengths into a single applicator, simultaneously targeting different tissue depths and anatomical structures within the hair follicle. By combining the absorption and penetration levels of different wavelengths, along with extended treatment coverage, increased comfort and low maintenance requirements, Soprano Titanium is the safest and most efficient laser hair removal treatment in Bondi Junction.

FAQs

1.  What is the minimum age for Laser Hair Removal? 

While there is no strict legal minimum age for laser hair removal, it is generally recommended that clients be at least 14 to 16 years old. For minors, parental consent is required.  This age range allows for better hair growth and skin development evaluation, ensuring a safer and more effective treatment.

2. Does laser remove hair permanently?

Laser hair removal provides long-term hair reduction but may not result in permanent removal. The treatment targets hair follicles, significantly reducing hair growth. Many experience lasting results, although some regrowth may occur over time, which is often finer and lighter. Maintenance sessions are necessary to maintain the desired outcome.

3. What happens if I stop laser hair removal after 4 sessions?

If you stop laser hair removal after 4 sessions, you may notice some regrowth, as most people require around 8 to 10 sessions for optimal results. The hair that regrows is often finer and lighter, but the full reduction in hair growth may not be achieved. Since laser treatments target hair in the active growth phase, completing the recommended number of sessions is important for long-lasting results.

4. Is laser hair removal good for the face?

Yes, laser hair removal is an effective method for reducing unwanted facial hair. It is commonly used on the upper lip, chin, cheeks, and jawline. The treatment works by targeting hair follicles with laser energy, inhibiting future hair growth and resulting in smoother skin. After completing the treatment, most people experience long-term hair reduction, though maintenance sessions are sometimes required to maintain smoothness.

5. Will hair grow back after laser hair removal on the face?

Laser hair removal significantly reduces facial hair growth, but some hair can regrow over time. However, the regrowth is typically finer and lighter. Since hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are necessary to achieve the best results. 

Laser hair removal on the face offers long-lasting results compared to traditional methods like shaving or waxing. The procedure suits most skin types, but effectiveness may vary depending on hair colour and thickness, with the best results typically seen on darker, coarser hair.

6. Is laser hair removal safe in pregnancy?

Healthcare professionals generally advise against laser hair removal during pregnancy due to the limited information available on its potential effects on the developing fetus. Hormonal changes during pregnancy can also affect skin sensitivity, increasing the likelihood of irritation. As a result, it’s often recommended to wait until after pregnancy to undergo laser treatments.

7. How does laser hair removal affect tattoos?

Laser hair removal should not be performed directly over tattoos due to the risk of damaging the ink. The laser targets pigment in hair follicles, but it can also affect the pigment in tattoos, leading to fading or distortion. Additionally, the intense heat from the laser can cause skin irritation, burns, or blistering in the tattooed area.

For individuals with tattoos, it is advisable to avoid laser hair removal in those areas. Treatments can still be conducted on surrounding skin, but care should be taken to ensure the tattoo remains protected to maintain its appearance.

8. How long after laser hair removal can I go in the sun?

After treatment, the skin is more sensitive and vulnerable to UV rays, increasing the risk of irritation, sunburn, or pigmentation changes. Thus, you should avoid sun exposure for two to three weeks after the treatment, as the skin is more vulnerable during this period. However, minimising sun exposure 24 hours before the treatment is also a good practice to reduce sensitivity and potential irritation. 

Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF to protect the treated areas. Once the initial healing period is over, it's still wise to use sunscreen to maintain your results and protect your skin when exposed to the sun.

9. Does laser hair removal work on all skin types?

Laser hair removal can be effective on various skin types, but results may vary depending on the individual’s skin tone and hair characteristics. Advancements in laser technology have led to the development of systems specifically designed for a wider range of skin tones, including those with darker skin. These newer lasers can effectively target hair while minimising the risk of skin damage. Our qualified professionals can assess your skin type and hair characteristics to determine the most suitable laser technology for optimal results.

10. Who cannot do laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is suitable for:

  1. Pregnant Individuals: Avoid laser hair removal during pregnancy due to insufficient research on its safety for both the mother and developing fetus.

  2. Certain Skin Conditions: Steer clear of treatment if you have active skin infections, rashes, or open wounds to prevent complications.

  3. Tanned Skin: Refrain from laser hair removal after recent tanning, whether from the sun or tanning beds, as it can elevate the risk of skin damage.

  4. Dark or Very Light Hair: Understand that laser hair removal is most effective on dark hair; individuals with very light or grey hair may experience limited results.

11. Does laser hair removal hurt?

Laser hair removal can cause minimal discomfort, often described as a brief snapping or tingling sensation during the procedure. Pain levels vary from person to person and can depend on factors such as the area being treated and sensitivity.

While many people find the sensation tolerable, modern laser systems often include cooling features to help reduce discomfort. For pain concerns, a topical numbing cream can be applied before the session to enhance comfort.

12. How can I maximise my laser hair removal results?
To maximise your results from laser hair removal:

  • Prepare Your Skin: Avoid sun exposure and waxing for at least four weeks before treatment. Shave the area a day prior to your session to ensure the laser targets the hair effectively.

  • Stay Consistent: Attend all scheduled sessions every 4 to 6 weeks to effectively target hair during its active growth phase.

  • Follow Aftercare Instructions: After treatment, protect your skin from the sun and follow any aftercare guidelines to minimise irritation and support healing.

  • Communicate Openly: Keep your practitioner informed about any changes in your skin or medications that could impact your treatment.

13. How many sessions do I need for optimal results?

Most individuals require 8 to 108 laser hair removal sessions for optimal results, although this can vary. The number of sessions needed depends on the hair growth cycle, as multiple treatments are necessary to target hair that grows in different phases effectively. 

Additionally, various body areas may require differing sessions; for instance, thicker areas typically need more treatments than finer areas. Individual factors, such as hair and skin type, also play a role in determining the number of sessions needed. Regular follow-up appointments will help assess your progress and decide if further sessions are necessary.

14. How does laser hair removal compare to other methods in terms of cost?

While traditional methods like shaving and waxing may seem more affordable initially, the ongoing costs of razors, creams, and salon visits can accumulate over time. In contrast, although requiring a higher upfront cost, laser hair removal is more economical in the long run.

Additionally, there are options available to make laser hair removal even more affordable:

  • You can save up to 15% by opting for a package of 4 sessions.

  • Membership programs are available, offering a 20% discount for an annual fee.

  • A special plan is available for teens aged 13-19, providing a 30% discount on treatments, making it a more budget-friendly option for younger clients.
