Laser Hair Removal in Belfast, NI, Guernsey & Jersey
At the ASC we use a pain-free, results driven Soprano XL device to help eliminate almost all hair types from desired areas. The patient will always need a consultation and patch test prior to starting treatment.
Facial hair is a particular concern for patients, as not only is the area highly visible, it can create embarrassment and severe self-consciousness among those who have it.
Hair growth occurs in cycles, and factors such as age, hormonal changes and imbalances, medication, ethnicity and genetics all contribute to excessive and abnormal growth. Offering gold-standard laser hair removal and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, the Aesthetic Skin Clinic is able to treat a wider range of patients, skin and hair growth types.
Soprano Ice Laser Hair Removal
The Soprano Ice is one of the most advanced laser hair removal systems on the market and is extremely popular due to the comfort of the treatment and the effective results achieved by the machine.
The melanin pigment in the hair attracts and absorbs the energy released by the handheld device, as it is passed over the treated area. The gradual and precise build up of heat damages the structures of the hair, which will fall out over 2-3 weeks after the session. The hair follicles’ ability to grow hair has been compromised so hair growth in that certain follicle will not reoccur.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) hair removal system involves controlled flashes of light that are absorbed by the hair follicles that lie beneath the skin’s surface. The light energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, retarding and obliterating the hair at the very root; meaning over a course of treatment hair growth in the treated area is stunted and significantly reduced.
It is important that patients seek hair removal treatment from professionals who are qualified and trained on the apparatus. Not only does the Aesthetic Skin Clinic consult each and every patient prior to treatment, we also carry out a patch test at least 48 hours before commencing to ensure you do not encounter any adverse reactions to the device and settings.
