Facts about Laser Hair Removal

The latest technology for laser hair removal is a certified Polylase Alexandrite medical grade laser. Since these lasers deliver light at one specific wavelength, rather than a wider range of frequencies, the energy that can be used is much more effective in preventing growth from the hair follicle.

Laser treatments are safe, pain-free and very reasonable compared to alternative systems.

You will be more effectively treated per visit with a laser and will therefore need fewer sessions than with other light based techniques.

The Polylase laser uses a patented cooling system that lowers the temperature of the skin during, and after laser exposure. Therefore, the laser hair treatment is usually less painful and is well tolerated. Some patients have compared the treatment to the sensation of the snap of a rubber band.

Be sure the laser hair removal treatment you choose is with a genuine laser and not intense pulsed light. Most clinics cannot use a true laser due to the cost of the equipment and the strict licencing requirements, and try to claim that intense pulsed light machine is similar in results.

This treatment is suitable for both males and females and great for people that suffer with ingrown hairs.

The requirements to own and operate lasers in Brisbane is highly regulated. There are only a handful of clinics who are fully licensed. Make sure the clinic you visit employs laser operators who are fully licensed and accredited by Queensland Health. BSIBL120409
