  Laser hair removal technology is suitable for most men and women. It’s important that your skin is kept out of the sun for 2 weeks before your appointment. If your skin has been exposed to the sun within the last 14 days, it may be necessary to delay the treatment. Treatment will also need to be delayed if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. We will be able to give you a better idea of the results you can hope to achieve when you visit us for your initial consultation.
