Why choose permanent laser hair removal from SurgiCare?

Here at SurgiCare, we believe in achieving beautiful effects through cosmetic surgery. That's why we favour permanent laser hair removal over electrolysis.

Electrolysis can be painful, may leave scars and is only suitable for small areas of your body. Permanent laser hair removal, on the other hand, is suitable for both large and small areas, delivering minimal discomfort and excellent results.

Trust SurgiCare for permanent laser hair removal that really makes a difference to the way your body looks and feels.

How does laser hair removal work?
  • The laser uses a beam of light which penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the pigment colour in the hair where it is converted to heat.
  • This heat travels down the hair shaft to the hair root and destroys it so that further hair cannot grow.
  • Because hair has different growth phases and the treatment only works in the active growth phase, several treatments are necessary to achieve a lasting result.
  • The number of treatments needed will depend upon the hair density, colour, skin type and treatment area, together with ethnic background and hormones.
  • Typically 6 or 8 treatments are required in a white skin and maybe 8 or 10 in a darker skin.
  • Many lasers used for laser hair removal cannot be used in darker skin types as they burn the skin, but SurgiCare use a laser which works in all skin types and colours.
As the treatment depends on the laser energy being absorbed by the pigment colour of the hair, it is not possible to treat white, grey, platinum blond or very light shades of hair by laser.
How long does laser hair removal take?
This depends on the area being treated for laser hair removal and ranges from 15 minutes for the upper lip or chin and bikini line, to 45 minutes for the back or the legs.
Is laser hair removal safe?
As we only use a beam of light to remove the hair, it is a non-invasive procedure which is perfectly safe. The laser settings used are individually chosen for your skin type and hair colour to minimise the risk of any significant skin reaction. This is also helped by the use of a cooled tip on the laser hand piece that protects the skin from thermal injury.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
It is always possible for new hair to grow after any form of hair removal treatment. However, laser treatment is the nearest we can get to achieving excellent long-term results. Occasionally it is possible to see the re-growth of small amounts of hair over a period of time, but this is usually weaker and lighter in colour and can be treated again if necessary.
What does laser hair removal cost?
The cost of laser hair removal depends on how long it takes to carry out the procedure. This, in turn, depends on the surface area being treated. Larger areas like the legs or back are more expensive than the lips or chin.
