Is laser hair removal safe for men?

Yes, laser hair removal is safe for men when trained professionals use advanced technology like the SPLENDOR X laser. It is FDA-approved and designed to target hair follicles while protecting the surrounding skin.

What is the cost of laser hair removal for men?

The cost varies depending on factors such as the size of the treatment area, the number of sessions required, and individual hair growth patterns. We recommend booking a consultation to get a personalised quote.

How effective is laser hair removal for men's backs?

Laser hair removal is highly effective for treating the back, as it efficiently targets thick, coarse hair. Multiple sessions are typically required to achieve optimal results, but the procedure significantly reduces hair growth over time.

How long does laser last for men?

Results from laser hair removal can be long-lasting, with many experiencing permanent hair reduction after completing the recommended sessions. However, occasional maintenance treatments may be needed to manage any regrowth.

Does laser hair removal work on all hair types and skin tones?

Yes, with advanced lasers like the SPLENDOR X, treatment is effective for various hair types and skin tones. However, very light or grey hair may respond less effectively due to the lack of pigment.

Can I shave between laser hair removal sessions?

Yes, shaving is the only recommended method of hair removal between sessions. Avoid waxing, plucking, or threading, as these methods remove the hair follicle and can interfere with the treatment's effectiveness.

Will laser hair removal make my skin sensitive?

Some redness or mild irritation may occur immediately after treatment, but this typically subsides within a few hours. Following post-treatment care instructions will help minimise any discomfort.

Can I have laser hair removal if I have tattoos?

Laser hair removal should not be performed directly over tattoos, as the laser can react with the tattoo ink. However, our specialists can work around tattooed areas to ensure safe and effective treatment.

Can laser hair removal help with ingrown hairs?

Laser hair removal is one of the best solutions for reducing and preventing ingrown hairs. Targeting the hair follicle at the root stops new hair from growing in a way that causes irritation or ingrown hairs.

Is laser hair removal painful for men?

Most men describe the sensation as mild discomfort, similar to the snap of an elastic band against the skin. The SPLENDOR X laser includes a cooling system to enhance comfort during treatment, making it more tolerable than waxing.

What areas of the body can men treat with laser hair removal?

Men commonly get laser hair removal on the back, chest, stomach, shoulders, neck, beard line, arms, and legs. Treatments can be customised based on personal preferences.

Can I have laser hair removal on my face?

Yes, laser hair removal is safe for areas like the beard line, cheeks, and neck. Many men choose it to achieve a well-groomed look or reduce irritation from shaving.

Will I need maintenance sessions after completing my laser hair removal treatments?

While laser hair removal provides long-lasting results, some clients may need occasional maintenance sessions to manage minimal regrowth. The frequency depends on individual hair growth patterns.

SCULPTRA

Sculptra is a fantastic treatment that has recently gained popularity and recognition among medical professionals. It is a FDA-approved injectable therapy to restore lost collagen and reduce facial wrinkles.

This innovative treatment utilises a biocompatible, biodegradable, synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid, which stimulates collagen growth over time to improve facial volume and overall appearance. Sculptra gives natural-looking results and is an excellent alternative to surgical procedures.

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is classed as a bio-stimulator and volumiser. It is made from a substance called poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). PLLA has a long history (over 25 years) of safe use in the body and is derived from sustainable sources such as sugar cane or corn starch. It works to send signals to the body to produce more collagen. This collagen production will make your skin smoother and firmer and make folds, making wrinkles less noticeable.

Since its introduction in 1999, Sculptra has been used worldwide and is administered by trained specialists through a series of injections tailored to individual needs. Sculptra fills a wrinkle with tiny PLLA beads, which are gradually absorbed by the body as they biodegrade. As a result, new collagen may be produced at the injection site as these beads break down.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does Sculptra last?

The benefits of Sculptra should continue for 2-3 years, but some patients report this to be longer.

What is the difference between Sculptra and dermal fillers?

They are different substances. Dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid and Sculptra PLLA. Sculptra stimulates collagen, whereas dermal fillers add volume to even skin texture.

Should I consider Sculptra or dermal fillers?

This very much depends on your aesthetic goals, the area of concern, and the type of wrinkles you wish to treat. We will advise your best course of treatment after your consultation.

What happens during the Sculptra treatment?

A topical numbing cream is applied to the skin before thoroughly cleaning the area. The solution is injected beneath the skin and gently massaged to ensure even distribution. Sculptra also contains lidocaine for added comfort.

When will I see the results of the Sculptra treatment?

You may see some immediate results, but these are usually temporary. As collagen increases, results will become more noticeable, usually around 2-3 months. The results will continue to show as more collagen is produced in the coming months.

Is there any downtime?

You may experience a small amount of swelling and bruising post-treatment, but most patients resume their daily activities immediately following the treatment.
