What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal uses focused light energy to target the melanin in each hair follicle, heating it at the root and preventing future growth without damaging the surrounding skin.

Our advanced diode laser delivers safe, precise treatment suited to a wide range of skin tones and hair types. Over a course of sessions, the majority of patients achieve an 80 to 95% permanent reduction in unwanted hair.

At Skintique Beautiful Smiles, every treatment begins with a free consultation and patch test to confirm suitability and build a personalised plan around your skin type, hair colour and treatment goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Laser hair removal works by directing focused light energy into the melanin in each hair follicle. The heat damages the follicle at the root, inhibiting future hair growth without harming the surrounding skin. Each session targets hair in its active growth phase, which is why multiple sessions are needed for full coverage.
Laser hair removal provides long-term, significant hair reduction rather than guaranteed 100% permanence for every follicle. Most patients achieve an 80 to 95% permanent reduction after a full course of sessions. Some patients require occasional maintenance top-up sessions over the years, but the majority of treated hair is gone for good.
Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snapping or warmth against the skin. Modern diode lasers include built-in cooling systems that significantly reduce discomfort. Pain tolerance varies between individuals and body areas, but most patients find it very manageable throughout the session.
Most patients require between 6 and 9 sessions to achieve optimal results, spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart depending on the treatment area and hair growth cycle. Some areas with coarser or denser hair may require additional sessions. We will discuss realistic expectations at your consultation.
Yes. Our advanced diode laser technology is safe and effective for skin types I through VI, including darker skin tones. A consultation and patch test are required first so we can confirm the correct settings for your individual skin and hair type.
Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your session. Do not wax, epilate or use hair removal cream in the weeks before. Avoid sun exposure, sunbeds and fake tan for at least 4 weeks before treatment. Arrive with clean, product-free skin in the treatment area.
Most patients experience no downtime at all. You may notice mild redness or warmth in the treatment area for a few hours after each session, which is entirely normal. We recommend avoiding heat, direct sun exposure and exercise for 24 hours after treatment.
Yes, absolutely. We offer a free, no-obligation consultation where you can discuss your goals, ask any questions and have your skin and hair assessed. There is no pressure to proceed — we want you to feel fully informed and confident before making any decisions.
