Laser hair removal

---

Yes - even if you've had laser before with another provider we ask that you book a consultation so we can discuss your goals, expectations, and get you booked for the services that will suit you best.  Consults are free, and can be booked though our Fresha booking app. 

We use a Soprano ICE. It utilizes a diode laser and incorporates a unique cooling system called ICE technology to minimize discomfort during treatment. The system is known for being virtually painless and effective for all skin tones and hair types, and is approved by Health Canada

Diode lasers emit a single, focused wavelength of light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle, generating heat and damaging the follicle to prevent hair growth. These lasers are more effective for permanent hair reduction than any other laser technology on the market, bringing full reduction in an average of 6 sessions!

The ICE technology cools the skin during treatment, reducing pain and discomfort.  It incorporates refrigeration contact cooling to protect the surface of the skin. Most people find it to be a very low pain experience. There may be a mild snapping feeling that fades off as quickly as it comes on, and treatments are super speedy!

Yes, you should arrive to your appointment with any treatment areas shaved the night before. 

If a shave needs to be touched up for some stray hairs we can do this with a disposable razor during your treatment, however if you arrive unshaved there is a $30 charge added for the extra time.

 Yes! Diode lasers deliver high frequency, low fluence pulses and can be safely used on all skin types. 

Everyone is different, but on average 6. Your success depends on if you're staying consistent with your appointments, your hair type, and hormones.  

Frequency varies depending on a variety of factors and can be anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks - your tech will let you know when to book your next appointment. Dedication and consistency is what's going to get you hair free the fastest, so we highly  recommend booking your next session before you leave. 

Now waxing or tweezing allowed Shave all you want though!

Yes! It may take a couple of extra treatments, but clients with PCOS can still get the results they're after. 

If you’re currently taking accutane or have taken it in the past 3 months, if topical skin-thinning products or medications (retin-a, retinol, differin, vitamin a) are currently being used, sunburn, pregnancy, recent sun exposure, or tattoos directly in the treatment area. 

Tattoos will be covered during your appointment to avoid accidental exposure. Areas which have been tattooed cannot be lasered as the laser will damage the tattoo.  

If the hair you want to target is very blond, strawberry blond, or gray/silver then laser is unlikely to work for you.
