Laser Hair Removal Sheffield

Laser Hair Removal is a non-invasive treatment that removes unwanted body and facial hair by using laser light to target and heat the hair shaft, preventing future hair growth. Multiple sessions are required to achieve permanent hair reduction.

What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that utilises laser energy to target and permanently reduce unwanted body hair. During the Sheffield laser hair removal treatment, a concentrated beam of light energy is directed at the target area of the body and damages the pigment in the hair follicle, effectively destroying it and preventing it from any further growth.

Here at Este Medical, our laser hair removal in Sheffield treatment offers an efficient and long-lasting solution to unwanted body hair while reducing the discomfort associated with more traditional methods of hair removal like waxing or shaving. The non-invasive procedure prevents any damage to the surrounding skin tissue, ensuring your skin remains safe without compromising the efficiency of the treatment.

FAQ's

How does Laser Hair Removal work?

You will wear protective eyewear and a cool gel will be applied to the area to be treated. Our laser will glide over the treatment area several times.

You need multiple laser hair removal sessions because hair growth has four stages, and to ensure long-lasting results, we need to target the hair follicle at the growing stage. Still, each hair follicle can be at a different location in the cycle. And to ensure that every hair follicle is targeted, multiple sessions are needed. By having multiple sessions, you ensure the best chance at having effective, long-lasting hair-free skin. One session alone is not enough to provide you with long-lasting results.
