How does Cynosure Elite+ laser hair removal work?

During laser hair removal procedures, a laser device emits light energy that travels through the skin and is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle and hair shaft. Pigments are the substances that give skin and hair its colour (also known as melanin). The energy absorbed damages the pigmented hair follicle, which impairs its ability to grow. Hair follicles that are in the anagen, or active growth phase, have more pigment and absorb more energy, and typically respond the best to treatments. For this reason, it typically takes multiple treatments to achieve the best results – its important to “catch” your hair in this active growth phase when you are receiving treatments.

Technology we use

There are many devices for laser hair removal however, we use the best in laser technology, the Cynosure Elite+. The Elite+ uses two proven laser wavelengths that provide treatments for patients of all skin types. Treatments with this system are fast, effective and safe. Our laser can be used on ALL skin types.

What areas can be treated?

Laser hair removal can remove hair from faces, backs, chests, arms, underarms, bikini, legs and more.

Am I a good candidate for laser hair removal?

Different lasers can effectively treat different skin types. Our laser can be used on ALL skin types. During your consultation we will determine the best course of treatment for you based on a variety of factors such as hair colour and hair type.

How many treatments will I need?

Typically, we recommend a series of six treatment sessions to provide the best aesthetic outcome. Laser hair removal technology can only affect hair in active phases of growth, so several treatments are needed to affect all of the unwanted hair.

Can I shave in between laser hair removal sessions

Yes. In fact, the area needs to be freshly shaved before your treatment session. You may shave the area the day before the treatment or the day of the treatment before coming in for your session. But you should not wax or pluck the hair during the course of your laser sessions.

How far apart are treatment sessions?

It depends on which area is being treated. In general, face, underarms, arms and bikini are approximately 4-6 weeks apart. Back, chest and legs are approximately 8-10 weeks apart. During your consultation your treatment course will be discussed.

What will laser hair removal feel like?

Most people feel only a slight momentary “snap” at the treatment site during the procedure followed by a slight heating to the skin. This typically goes away after the treatment but cooling methods can be used immediately after treatment to help with this sensation.

How quickly will I recover?

Typically, you can resume regular daily activities immediately following treatment.

Are there any side effects?

You may experience a mild, sunburn-like sensation, possibly accompanied by some minor redness and/or swelling immediately following the treatment. This usually lasts 2-24 hours. Post treatment care will be discussed during your consultation.

Is there any aftercare?

We recommend that you avoid heat treatments including hot baths, saunas, and steam rooms for 24-48 hours. You MUST avoid the sun and sun beds for 30 days before and after treatments. Factor 50+ must be worn to reduce this risk.
Fake tanning products can be used 2 weeks either side of a treatment but must be completely removed before the next session.

How do I start?

Firstly you must book an appointment with the clinic for a consultation; these are usually free of charge. The therapist will go through a few medical questionnaires with you to see if you are eligible for the treatment. Following this, she will explain to you in full detail what the treatment entails and answer any questions for you. A patch test on the area will then be carried out to check for any skin sensitivity to light treatments. This will also give you a chance to experience the sensation of the light on your skin so that you know what to expect when coming in for your first treatment.
