What it is
Laser hair removal uses laser light to reduce the hair that grows back, session by session, instead of taking it off the surface the way shaving and waxing do. Our laser technology delivers progressive, permanent hair reduction, and it is safe and effective for most skin types.
It is the treatment to ask about if you are tired of shaving and waxing the same area, and of the ingrown hairs that come with them. How many sessions you need, and what your areas cost, are agreed at consultation rather than before it.
Because the reduction is permanent rather than something that has to be repeated for ever, laser hair removal is bought as a course and judged at the end of it, not after the first appointment.
How it works
Each session treats the hair that is growing at that moment, which is why the reduction builds over a course rather than arriving after one visit.
- Safe and effective for most skin types
- Quick treatment sessions
- Progressive, permanent reduction
- An alternative to shaving and waxing, and to the ingrown hairs that follow them
- Which areas we treat, and how many sessions your course runs to, are confirmed at consultation
What it costs
Laser hair removal at Skinfolk
Laser hair removal is priced by the area treated and by the course, so it is not one of the fixed prices on our published treatment list. We will give you the price for your areas at consultation, before anything is booked in.
Every price we publish is on our treatment pricing page.
Who it suits
- Anyone tired of shaving or waxing the same area
- Anyone who gets ingrown hairs from shaving or waxing
- Most skin types, which is confirmed at consultation
- Anyone happy for the reduction to build over a course rather than a single visit
When it is not the answer
- Anyone expecting one session to finish the job, because the reduction is progressive by design
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Infection, inflamed or broken skin in the area to be treated
- Anything we find at consultation that makes the treatment unsuitable for you, which we will tell you at the time
If laser hair removal is not the right treatment for you, we will say so at consultation and suggest what is.
What happens on the day
Your consultation covers the areas you want treated, your skin and what you want from the course. Together we agree a plan and a price, and only then is anything booked in.
Sessions are quick, so a single area is easy to fit around work or family and you can return to your day afterwards.
The reduction builds session by session rather than all at once, which is why laser hair removal is planned as a course from the start. Aftercare is talked through in clinic and your course is spaced out for you.
If you are treating more than one area, we will say at consultation whether they are better done together or spread across separate visits, and price them accordingly.
Laser hair removal questions
How much is laser hair removal at Skinfolk?
It is priced by the area treated and by the course, so it is not one of the fixed prices on our list. We will give you the price for your areas at consultation. Every price we publish is on our treatment pricing page.
How many sessions will I need?
That depends on the area and on your own hair, and it is agreed at consultation. Because the reduction is progressive, laser hair removal is planned as a course rather than a single appointment.
Is it safe for my skin type?
Our laser is safe and effective for most skin types. Your own skin is looked at in clinic at consultation, before any course is booked.
Does it mean the end of shaving and waxing?
That is what it is for. The treatment gives a progressive, permanent reduction in hair, so the shaving, the waxing and the ingrown hairs that come with them reduce as the course goes on.
How long does a session take?
Sessions are quick. The exact time depends on how large the area is, and we will tell you when we plan your course at consultation.
Where is the clinic?
Skinfolk is at The Paddocks, Woodhall Lane, Ombersley, Uphampton, Droitwich WR9 0JR. We welcome clients from Droitwich Spa, Worcester, Bromsgrove and across Worcestershire. Details are on our contact page.
