This is dependent on the treatment area; for example, the lip and chin takes just 5 minutes, the underarms and bikini area take 15 minutes and bigger areas like the arms, legs and back take 30-45 minutes.

The number of treatments required varies based on hair type, colour and the hair growth cycle. Typically, clients need 6-8 sessions to achieve optimal results. Our specialists at The Laser Fix will create a customised treatment plan for you.

Results vary, but most clients at The Laser Fix start noticing a reduction in hair growth after the first few sessions. Optimal results are usually seen after completing the full course of treatments, with hair becoming finer and less noticeable.

At The Laser Fix, our laser technology is suitable for most skin types. However, during your consultation, we will assess your skin and hair type to determine the most effective treatment plan for you.

Before your appointment at The Laser Fix:
– Shave the treatment area 24 hours prior.
– Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least two weeks.
– Do not wax, pluck, or use hair removal creams for four weeks before treatment.
– Avoid using skincare products with active ingredients like retinol or glycolic acid for a few days before the session.

Post-treatment, you might experience slight redness or swelling, which typically subsides within a few hours. It’s essential to avoid sun exposure and apply SPF to the treated area. We recommend using soothing products like aloe vera to aid recovery.

Side effects are generally minimal and temporary. You might experience slight redness, swelling or a sunburn-like sensation. These typically resolve within a few hours to a couple of days. Our specialists at The Laser Fix will provide detailed aftercare instructions to minimise any potential side effects.

There is minimal to no downtime after laser hair removal at The Laser Fix. You can typically resume your regular activities immediately following the treatment, although it’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise and sun exposure for a short period.

Post-treatment, avoid sun exposure, hot showers, saunas and any activity that causes excessive sweating for at least 24-48 hours. Do not apply any products with active ingredients like retinol or glycolic acid to the treated area for a few days. Always use a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your skin.

No, at The Laser Fix, we cannot perform laser hair removal over tattoos. We can treat around tattooed areas, maintaining a gap of 4cm.

Yes, shaving is allowed and even recommended between your laser hair removal sessions. However, avoid waxing, plucking or using hair removal creams, as these methods remove the hair follicle, which is necessary for the laser to be effective.

While there is no conclusive evidence that laser hair removal is harmful during pregnancy or breastfeeding, we recommend waiting until after this period to start or continue treatments.
