Laser hair removal treatment is performed using a diode laser hair removal device. At Marlow Valley Smiles, we have one of the most advanced laser systems available, which works effectively on most skin types. The procedure is easy, fast and pain-free. A free initial consultation and patch test is required a week before any laser hair removal treatment sessions at our Marlow clinic. Laser hair removal is ideal for individuals seeking a long-term reduction in hair growth.

What is the Laser Hair Removal Process?

Free Consultation & Patch Test

Before you begin any laser hair removal treatments, you’ll need a consultation and patch test at least one week in advance. We’ll assess your skin and hair type, chat through your goals, and advise how many sessions you’ll likely need.

Pre-Treatment Guidance

We kindly request that you gently wash and shave the area a few hours before your appointment and refrain from using any moisturiser in the laser treatment areas. It’s essential not to pluck, wax, or use hair removal creams, as these methods remove the follicle, which is necessary for the laser to work effectively.

Laser Treatment

At your first session, we use our laser hair removal tool on all the areas that you want treated.

Further Appointments

Most clients require around 6 sessions, spaced 3–4 weeks apart, but this can vary depending on the area, hair thickness, and medical conditions. We discuss this at each appointment and adjust the plan as needed.

Laser Hair Removal FAQs

This varies depending on the areas you want to be treated and your hair type. We’ll go through everything, including costs, during your free consultation and patch test. Larger areas, such as the chest or back, generally cost more than smaller ones.

Absolutely not. Laser hair removal is for everyone. In fact, around half of our patients are men.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Avoid tight waistbands or anything that rubs the treatment area.

We use an advanced diode laser system designed to deliver a pain-free experience. You might feel a slight twinge or warming sensation, but most people find it completely manageable.

Yes. Even if you’ve had laser hair removal in the past, we’ll still need to patch test you. Different machines use different technology, and your skin or hormone levels may have changed.

It depends on the area, hair type, and how your body responds. Most people need around 6 sessions. We’ll be able to give a clearer idea after your first or second treatment.

We don’t recommend laser hair removal during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to hormonal changes that can affect hair growth and sensitivity.
