Laser Hair Removal Clinic in Wigan

Laser hair removal works by killing off the hair follicle. The key is that your hair has some colour to it (it is not too fair, blonde or grey). When the laser is passed over the area, the light is absorbed by the melanin in your hair. Consequently, this heats up and causes the cell which grows the hair to die off. However, this doesn’t happen all at once! Because the hair grows in cycles, you need to have multiple treatments (6-8 ideally) so that we catch the hair in the correct phase of growth.

Yes! Whether you have white skin, black skin or anywhere in between, we have the right technology to carry out your treatments at our laser hair removal clinic in Wigan.

Hair colour is a different issue, though. Lasers work by picking up the colour (melanin) in the hair. This means that in the area of the treatment, if your hair is blonde, white, grey or red, then laser hair removal is unlikely to work. It’s worth considering that your hair colour can vary depending on the area of your face or body, and some areas may be darker than others. So, just because your facial hair might be too fair doesn’t mean that it won’t work on your body. If in doubt, just come for a laser consultation and let us have a look.

Besides the Soprano Ice – a world-renowned, virtually pain-free laser system – we also have 2 other laser systems, so we can choose the best one for you. This combination means we get excellent results for Soprano and Diode laser hair removal in Wigan.

Laser treatments used to be regulated by the Health Care Commission, which became the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England. In 2005, we became regulated under this system, which included CQC site visits, documentation and verbal and written tests. However, in 2008, the government decided to de regulate laser treatments and instead hand over responsibility to local councils. However, local councils tend not to get involved as they do not have the knowledge required to implement any system or tests.

Most clinics which have set up since 2008 will have no standards of best practice set out for them. The good news is that we maintain the rigorous standards set out during our CQC regulation period, and we keep these excellent practices today.
