How Laser Hair Removal Works

At Torbay Laser Centre, we use advanced light-based technology to provide safe, effective and long-lasting hair reduction for clients in Paignton and across Torbay.

Treatment works by delivering carefully controlled light energy into the hair. The pigment within the hair absorbs this energy and converts it into heat, targeting the follicle responsible for future hair growth while leaving the surrounding skin protected.

Because hair grows in different stages, a course of treatments is needed to target hairs during their active growth phase. With each session, regrowth typically becomes finer, softer and less noticeable, resulting in progressively smoother skin.

Our system also features integrated skin cooling, helping to keep treatments comfortable while allowing your clinician to deliver energy effectively and safely.

The result is long-term hair reduction without the constant shaving, waxing and irritation that comes with traditional hair removal.

Your Hair Removal Journey: What to Expect

Achieving long-lasting results starts with a clear, comfortable plan.


​1. Free Consultation & Patch Test: We begin with a thorough assessment of your skin and hair type, followed by a patch test to determine the optimal settings for maximum effectiveness and safety.


​2. Preparation & Session: Before your session, the area must be clean-shaven (no waxing or plucking). During the treatment, a cooling gel is applied, and the handpiece delivers rapid pulses of light. A typical session for the underarms takes just 10–15 minutes.


​3. Post-Care & Results: You may experience mild redness, similar to sunburn, which quickly subsides. You can immediately return to your daily routine. Clients typically require 6 to 8 sessions, spaced 4–8 weeks apart, to catch all hair in its active growth phase, leading to dramatically reduced and finer hair growth.

Common Questions About Laser Safety & Effectiveness

We understand you may have questions about making the switch to light-based hair removal. Here are answers to common concerns about our Hair Reduction service:

  • ​Is it painful? Most clients describe the sensation as a warm, mild flicking feeling, often compared to the snap of a small rubber band. Our integrated cooling systems minimize any discomfort.

 

  • ​How effective is Laser compared to shaving? Our Device delivers permanent hair reduction over time, leading to 80-90% less hair, while shaving is a temporary, surface-level solution that often causes ingrown hairs and irritation.

 

  • ​Can it be used on all skin types? Treatment is most effective on lighter skin tones with darker hair. However, our advanced equipment is customisable, and we will confirm your suitability during your free consultation and patch test.
