Laser Hair Removal – Frequently Asked Questions
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target pigment within the hair follicle. The absorbed energy heats and damages the follicle, helping to reduce future hair growth while minimising exposure to the surrounding skin. A course of treatments can provide long-term hair reduction, with regrowth often becoming finer and lighter.
Our Advanced Titanium Ice Diode Laser emits specific wavelengths of light that are absorbed by melanin (pigment) in the hair. The absorbed energy heats the follicle, helping to reduce its ability to produce new hair while the integrated cooling system helps protect the skin.
Laser hair removal provides long-term hair reduction rather than guaranteed permanent hair removal. Many treated hairs will not return, while any regrowth is usually finer, lighter, and less noticeable. Some clients may choose occasional maintenance treatments to maintain their results.
Many clients need a course of approximately 6–8 treatments, although the number varies according to the treatment area, hair colour, skin type, hormones, and individual hair-growth cycles. During your consultation, we will recommend a personalised treatment plan.
Treatments are usually scheduled every 4–8 weeks, depending on the area being treated and your natural hair growth cycle.
Many clients find treatment comfortable. Our Advanced Titanium Ice Diode Laser features integrated cooling technology that helps cool the skin during treatment. Sensation varies, but you may feel mild warmth or a light snapping sensation similar to an elastic band.
Laser hair removal is generally well tolerated when performed by a trained practitioner following an appropriate assessment. At Mac Aesthetics & Laser Clinic, treatments are carried out using professional equipment within our RQIA Registered Aesthetic Clinic. Every client receives a consultation and patch test to assess suitability and help determine appropriate treatment settings.
Our Advanced Titanium Ice Diode Laser combines three wavelengths (755 nm, 808 nm, and 1064 nm) and is designed to treat a wide range of skin tones and hair types. Individual suitability is confirmed through consultation, assessment, and patch testing.
Laser hair removal works best on dark hair because the laser targets melanin (pigment). Blonde, grey, white, and some red hairs contain very little pigment and may not respond as effectively. During your consultation, we will assess whether laser treatment is suitable for you.
Following consultation and suitability assessment, most areas of the face and body can be treated, including:
-
Upper lip
-
Chin
-
Full face
-
Neck
-
Underarms
-
Arms
-

Absolutely. Laser hair removal is increasingly popular with men who wish to reduce unwanted hair on areas such as the back, chest, shoulders, neck, beard line, arms, and legs.
To prepare for treatment:
-
Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment.
-
Do not wax, pluck, thread, or use epilators for at least four weeks before treatment.
-
Avoid excessive sun exposure and fake tan before your appointment.
-
Avoid applying lotions, oils, deodorants, or perfumes to the treatment area on the day of treatment where applicable.
For the first 24–48 hours after treatment, we recommend:
-
Avoid hot baths, saunas, steam rooms, and hot tubs.
-
Avoid vigorous exercise if the area feels warm or irritated.
-
Avoid direct sun exposure and use a high-factor SPF on exposed treated areas.
-
Avoid fake tan until the skin has fully settled.
-
Follow the personalised aftercare advice provided by your practitioner.
Temporary redness, warmth, or mild swelling around the hair follicles is normal and usually settles within a few hours. Your practitioner will explain all potential risks and aftercare during your consultation.
A patch test allows us to assess your skin's response to the laser, select appropriate treatment settings, and help confirm suitability. Patch testing is required before commencing treatment.
