Laser Hair Removal.

 

Tired of shaving, waxing, or plucking? Laser hair removal with the advanced Lumiere system by Sculpt Pro offers a fast and long-lasting solution for reducing unwanted hair. Whether you’re treating the face, underarms or bikini area, Lumiere delivers comfortable treatments suitable for all skin types.

What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses concentrated light energy to target and disable hair follicles, significantly reducing hair growth over time. The Lumiere system by Sculpt Pro emits controlled pulses of laser energy that are absorbed by the pigment in the hair. This heat damages the follicle without harming the surrounding skin, preventing future hair growth.

Unlike traditional methods like waxing or shaving, laser hair removal provides long-term hair reduction, making it a great treatment for PCOS (Polycystic ovary syndrome) and Transgender clients.

How does the treatment work?

The Lumiere laser works by delivering a beam of light that specifically targets melanin in the hair shaft. As the light is absorbed, it converts into heat, which disrupts the hair follicle’s ability to regrow. Over a series of treatments, hair becomes finer, slower-growing, and eventually stops coming back altogether.

What sets Lumiere apart is its triple-wavelength technology. This allows it to treat a wide range of hair types and skin tones more effectively than single-wavelength systems.

The benefits of using Lumiere:
  • Painless treatments
  • Short treatment time
  • Ability to treat tanned / darker skin
  • Suitable for all skin and hair types.
When to expect results:

Progress becomes noticeable after the first few sessions. Because hair grows in cycles, multiple treatments, typically 6 sessions, are necessary to target all follicles effectively.

Many clients begin to see a visible reduction in hair growth by the second or third session, with treated areas becoming progressively smoother. The final outcome is long-lasting hair reduction, often with no need for future shaving or waxing.

Once a full course is completed, occasional maintenance sessions, once or twice a year, may be recommended to maintain your results, especially in areas with hormonal influences like the face or bikini line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Laser Hair Removal at Persona

  • What is Laser Hair Reduction & how does it work?
    A Laser is an intense beam of light that is safely used to eliminate unwanted hair on all areas of the face and body. The eLase system uses Elos technology, which combines laser energy with radio frequency energy. This combination takes the light energy deeper in the skin making it more effective on the hair folicle and allows us to deliver precise controlled pulses of energy into the hair shaft without damaging the skin. Pigment in the follicles then absorbs this energy, which destroys the follicle preventing further hair growth. Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at the same time.
  • Which areas can be treated with Laser for Hair Reduction?
    We can treat almost any area on the face and body with the following being the most common:
    • Face (lip / chin / side burns)
    • Arms
    • Underarm
    • Backs
    • Chest
    • Bikini Area
    • Legs
    • Feet
  • How soon will I see results?
    A course of 8 is recommended and results are gradual and hair growth is reduced after each treatment.
  • How long do the results last?
    As hair follicles are permanently destroyed your results should be long lasting with perhaps the odd maintenance procedure required once a year. Our laser practitioners are available throughout all stages of your treatment so if you have any concerns please do not hesitate to contact the clinic. Results may vary as each client is different but you are welcome to arrange an appointment to see your treating practitioner at any time to ensure you are happy with your procedure.
  • Is Laser Hair Reduction safe?
    Laser treatments are extremely safe when delivered by a qualified and experienced practitioner. Directly after treatment you may see mild redness, and sometimes slight swelling, however these temporary side effects quickly subside.
