Years of experienceWhat is facial laser hair removal?
Facial laser hair removal reduces suitable hair on selected external facial areas. A full-face label should not mean treating every fine hair. The clinician maps useful targets and agrees where treatment should stop.
Laser uses light absorbed by the pigment in suitable hairs to reduce their future growth. The aim is lasting reduction with less regrowth; it does not promise to remove every hair.
Choose your treatment area
Jaw and sideburns
Agree a natural boundary and preserve the hair you want to keep. Fine hair around the edge needs particular care.
Cheeks and fine facial hair
A larger area is not always a better treatment. Very fine facial hair can respond poorly, and unwanted increased growth is a possible risk.
Assess the cause as well as the hair
- 01
New or increasing growth
Tell the clinician if hair has changed quickly or comes with irregular periods, acne or other symptoms. Assessment may be needed alongside hair reduction.
- 02
Recent skin treatments
Share your skincare routine and any recent waxing, peels or laser sessions. Skin needs time to recover before another procedure.
- 03
Preserve natural boundaries
Agree on the hairline, sideburns and beard edges. Hair-removal laser should not be used over the eyelids, eyebrows or tattooed makeup.
Does laser suit your skin and hair?
- 01
Hair colour and thickness
Dark, coarse hair generally provides a better target. Very fine, white, grey or light hair may need another approach, such as electrolysis for individual hairs.
- 02
Skin tone and recent tanning
Skin pigment matters when selecting the device and settings. Tell the clinician about tanning, burns and past colour changes. A test area may be advised.
- 03
Health and skin history
Share medicines, pregnancy, recent procedures, active rashes, infections and scarring history. Treatment may need to wait while a concern is assessed.
OUR PROCEDURE
How your appointment works
STEP 01
Assess and prepare
- Prepare the area
Arrive with the treatment areas free of makeup as instructed. Share photographs or notes about changing growth and bring the names of prescription skincare and medicines.
- Agree your plan
Confirm suitable areas, likely benefits, risks and cost. Follow the clinic’s instructions on shaving and avoiding waxing or plucking; do not stop prescribed medicines on your own.
STEP 02
Protect and treat
- Treat the agreed area
The agreed facial zones are treated with suitable eye protection and skin cooling. The practitioner should check comfort and avoid treating surrounding fine hairs without a reason.
- Check comfort
Pulses can feel warm or like a brief snap. Tell the clinician about excessive pain so the skin can be checked and treatment paused if needed.
STEP 03
Care and review
- Keep the skin comfortable
Use gentle care, protect from sunlight and ask when makeup, shaving and active products can restart. Contact the clinic about burns, blisters or persistent colour changes.
- Arrange follow-up
Review skin recovery and regrowth before the next session. Contact the clinic promptly about blistering, worsening pain or a persistent skin reaction.
What changes over a course?
Facial growth can be influenced by hormones, so maintenance may be part of the plan. Check density and regrowth over time; do not judge the course only by smoothness immediately after shaving.
Hairs grow at different times, so a series of visits is usually needed. Session intervals and any maintenance should follow your area, skin recovery and regrowth. Ask for a review if the response is limited instead of repeating an unchanged plan indefinitely.
Know how to care for your skin
Temporary skin changes
Redness, tenderness and swelling around hairs can occur. Follow the agreed cooling and skincare advice, and avoid picking or harsh exfoliation.
Sun protection
Protect exposed treated skin and report any tanning between visits. Check when active skincare, heat and friction are suitable again.
Reactions that need review
Burns, blisters, lasting colour changes, infection and scars are possible. Unwanted increased hair growth can also occur. Report a concerning change rather than treating over it.

MEET THE PEOPLE BEHIND YOUR CARE
Meet our doctors
01Does full-face laser include eyebrows?
No. Hair removal around the eyes requires a different safety assessment; this facial guide excludes eyebrows and eyelids.
02Can I have laser if I have PCOS?
Laser may be considered for suitable hair, but it does not treat PCOS. Medical care and hair reduction may need to be planned together.
03Can laser cause more facial hair?
Increased growth can occur after treatment, especially around fine facial or neck hair. Discuss this risk and whether an alternative is more suitable.
04Is facial laser the same as laser toning?
No. Hair reduction targets hair pigment. Laser toning is used for selected pigment concerns with a different treatment plan.
05How much will the course cost?
Ask for a quote after assessment, with the treatment boundaries, planned visits, review arrangements and any additional-session charges clearly listed.
06Will I need maintenance?
Some regrowth can occur after a course. A review of the returning hair helps decide whether another session would be useful.
07Can I choose electrolysis instead?
Electrolysis treats individual follicles without relying on hair pigment. It may suit selected lighter hairs or small areas; compare the time, comfort and suitability at a consultation.
