Facial Laser Hair Removal
Laser Hair Removal on Face
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
During the facial laser hair removal treatment, the laser focuses on the melanin within the hair follicles whilst the entire shaft of hair is heated, leaving it to be weakened or destroyed. This laser wavelength is absorbed by the hair follicle, which prevents the laser from reaching deeper into the skin and causing damage.
Unlike waxing and other hair removal methods, this method attacks the hair follicle’s structure to the root, disrupting its ability to grow again. Our laser hair removal for face treatment is completely safe and pain-free, leaving you with long-lasting results that are free from the irritation and redness associated with other hair removal methods.
When you undergo laser facial hair removal, the laser will target hair in the active growth stage. As laser hair removal is a repeated treatment, you will need to have multiple sessions to ensure that all of the hairs are targeted. This is because not all of the hair follicles will be in the active growth stage at the same time.

Laser Hair Removal for Men’s faces is an excellent option because it’s a painless and long-lasting solution to unwanted facial hair. The Soprano laser machines we use at Este Medical Group are the latest and most advanced laser technology available and provide superior results.
The Soprano laser machines use laser light energy to penetrate the skin and specifically target the hair follicles. This laser energy destroys the hair follicles, preventing new hairs from growing. The best part is that this treatment is completely painless – most people compare it to a warm massage. And since the laser targets only the hair follicles and not the skin itself.

When is the best time to have Laser Hair Removal?
The hair growth cycle is divided into four main stages – anagen, catagen, telogen and exogen.
Anagen is the active growth stage of the hair and lasts between two to six years. Catagen is the transitional stage that lasts for about two weeks. Telogen is the resting stage, which can last for up to four months. Exogen is the shedding stage, which occurs when the hair falls out, and new hair begins to grow in its place.
Our facial laser hair removal and full body laser hair removal is most effective when performed on hairs in the active growth stage, which is why multiple sessions are needed to ensure that all hair follicles are targeted. Not all of the hairs will be in the active growth stage at the same time, so by having multiple sessions, you will be able to target all of the hairs and achieve long-lasting results.
Can laser hair removal be performed on any part of the body?
Yes, laser hair removal can be performed on any part of the body. However, it is essential to remember that laser hair removal can cause some side effects, such as redness and irritation, so it is recommended to consult your doctor or a laser hair removal specialist before undergoing this treatment.
Does it hurt?
The Soprano Ice is pain free, but you can expect some mild heat and pinching whilst undergoing treatment.
How many sessions do I need?
We usually recommend a course of between 6-8 sessions to see results that will last.
How often should I have sessions?
Sessions are routinely carried out approximately every 4-5 weeks.
Which hair removal can I do in between sessions?
During the course of having laser hair removal sessions, we will only allow you to shave or trim your hair. This is because waxing and plucking will pull the hair out of the root meaning the laser will be less effective at your next session.
