There are many choices for removal of unwanted hair. Techniques such as shaving, waxing and depilatory creams provide only a short-term solution and require repeat use within days or weeks, and can result in a sensitivity rash after use. Treatment with light (Intense Pulse Light and Laser) destroys the hair root to stop re-growth, and represents the only alternative to electrolysis for long term removal of hair.

There is no need to grow the hair for the treatment, allowing you to shave or use a depilatory cream between each monthly session. The pulses of light are absorbed by melanin within the hairs, creating heat that destroys the hair root.

The treatments are fast, allowing the whole area or multiple areas to be treated at each session. As the technique is non-invasive, there are fewer traumas caused to the skin than most other hair removal methods. The light pulse is very short, causing only a mild sensation during treatment. With each treatment, the number of growing hairs is reduced, leading to long term reduction in a course of 4 to 7 treatments
