Laser Hair Removal Services in Melbourne – What You Should Know

Step-by-Step: How We Handle Treatments

• Initial chat and patch test: We talk about your health, recent sun exposure, and medications. We test a small spot first.
• Planning sessions: We estimate how many visits you’ll need based on the area, hair density, and growth cycles.
• Treatment day: Quick bursts of laser light target the hair. We use cooling to make it tolerable and keep the skin safe.
• Aftercare: We’ll tell you what to avoid like hot showers, harsh products, direct sun for the next couple of days.

Face Laser Hair Removal – Extra Care Where It Counts

The face is different from other areas. The skin is thinner, more sensitive, and exposed to sunlight daily. We start slow here, with a conservative setting, monitor your reaction, and space sessions carefully. We often treat upper lip, chin, jawline, or sideburns, but never push speed over safety.

Laser removal doesn’t always mean that the hair will never grow back again. In most cases, it slows down the process, meaning no more frequent salon visits, regular waxing or shaving sessions. Also, treated hairs usually grow back finer, lighter, and less dense, and many follicles may stop producing hair entirely, leading to a lasting reduction in hair growth. So, the result could vary from person to person but you will be sure to see noticeable results.

What Affects Laser Hair Removal Results?

One thing we talk about in almost every consultation is that results can vary between people. There are a few reasons for this, and understanding them helps you set realistic expectations before starting treatment:

• Hair Colour and Thickness: Darker, coarser hairs respond better to lasers because they absorb more light energy. Very fine or light hair can be harder to target.
• Skin Tone: Different skin tones need different laser settings to keep the treatment safe and effective. We adjust this for every client.
• Hormonal Factors: Conditions like PCOS or hormonal changes (e.g., during pregnancy or menopause) can influence how quickly hair grows back.
• Growth Cycles: Hair doesn’t all grow at once. This is why multiple sessions, spaced out over weeks, are needed for lasting results.
• Consistency: Following your recommended schedule and aftercare instructions improves the chances of smoother, long-term results.

We explain these factors in detail during your first appointment. That way, you know what’s likely to happen over time, how many sessions you may need, and what sort of maintenance could be required later on.
