Laser Hair Removal Melbourne

Laser hair removal delivers permanent hair reduction rather than complete elimination. Most clients see 80 to 90% reduction after six to eight sessions. Fine or hormonal hair can return over time, so touch ups, usually once or twice a year, keep the result.

Yes. The AvalancheLase® carries an Nd:YAG 1064 nm wavelength made for deeper skin tones, Fitzpatrick IV to VI. It bypasses surface melanin to reach the follicle, which is what makes laser hair removal effective on dark skin. Your clinician assesses your tone first and calibrates every setting to it.

Most areas take six to eight sessions, four to six weeks apart. Hair grows in cycles and the laser works on hair in its active phase, so each visit reaches a new share of follicles. Most clients notice less regrowth from the second or third session. Six is the recommendation; one to three is a good place to start.

Most clients describe a warm snapping sensation, something like a rubber band flick. Cooling is built into the handpiece, so the skin stays comfortable. Areas like the bikini line can feel sharper, and sessions there are short.

Pricing is by area, and packages bring the per session price down. Choose your area in Build your package above for the exact figure, or book a free consultation and your clinician will map out a plan for you.

We do not treat during pregnancy, as a precaution. Safety research in pregnancy is limited, so we prefer to wait. You are welcome back after delivery.

For most people, yes. The laser works on the pigment in the hair, so dark and medium hair on any skin tone responds best. Lighter hair is assessed at your free consultation, since some responds well when the follicle is dark. Your clinician checks your skin, your hair and your history before the first pulse. Mild redness and warmth for a few hours are the usual after effects.

Shave the area 24 hours before your appointment. Leave waxing, plucking and threading for four weeks beforehand, since the laser needs the root in place. Keep the area out of the sun and free of fake tan for two weeks, and arrive with clean skin and no product on it.

It depends on the area and on you, since no two bodies are the same size. Underarms take around five minutes, the face around ten, full legs around twenty. Full legs with Brazilian and underarms together take around thirty.

They work differently. A medical laser delivers one concentrated wavelength to the follicle, which is why it can be matched to a skin tone and why it reaches the root. IPL uses a broad band of light. Pink treats with the AvalancheLase® laser, two wavelengths chosen for the skin in front of the clinician. The Hair Removal Guide has the longer read on the difference.

Mild redness and warmth are normal and settle within hours. Pink Recovery Gel, sold in clinic for post laser care, soothes the skin if you want it. Keep the area out of the sun for two weeks, wear SPF on it between sessions, and stay away from hot showers and saunas for the first day. Treated hair sheds over the following one to three weeks. From 24 to 48 hours, Body Smooth helps keep ingrown hairs away and the skin smooth.

Yes. Afterpay is available on all treatments, splitting your payment into four interest free instalments. Packages also bring the per session price down.
