Services
Laser Hair Removal
Our laser hair removal uses medical-grade diode technology to permanently reduce unwanted hair. Suitable for most skin types and hair colours, treatments target hair follicles with precision, ensuring minimal discomfort. Clients report significant hair reduction after 6-8 sessions, with tailored plans for areas like the face, legs, and bikini line.
Mens Hair Removal
Specialised services for men include back, chest, and beard shaping using advanced diode lasers. Clinically proven for permanent results, treatments address thick or coarse hair while maintaining skin safety. Our therapists adapt settings for male skin sensitivity, ensuring comfort and effectiveness across all body areas.
Transgender Hair Removal
We provide targeted laser hair removal for transgender clients, focusing on areas like the back, chest, and pubic region. Our diode lasers accommodate diverse skin and hair types, aligning with gender affirmation goals. Therapists prioritise discretion, consistency, and emotional support throughout the treatment journey.
Body Sculping/Inch Loss
This non-invasive treatment combines laser technology to reduce fat and tighten skin. Ideal for stubborn areas resistant to diet and exercise, sessions deliver gradual inch loss with no downtime. Results improve over weeks as the body naturally eliminates fat cells post-treatment.
Facial Hair Removal
Precision removal of facial hair for women and men, including upper lip, chin, and beard shaping. Diode lasers safely treat sensitive facial skin, with adjustable settings for fine or coarse hair. Clients achieve smoother, long-lasting results compared to shaving or waxing.

Questions
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Yes, when using medical-grade diode lasers. Most clients achieve 90% permanent reduction after 6-8 sessions, though hormonal conditions may require maintenance.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Modern diode lasers include cooling tips for comfort. Most describe the sensation as warm pinpricks, with sensitive areas like the chin requiring lower settings.
Can all skin types be treated?
Our diode lasers safely treat all skin tones except very dark or tanned skin. A patch test ensures suitability during your free consultation.
How much does treatment cost?
Prices start at £15 for small areas and £200 for full legs. Costs vary by size, hair density, and session count, with bespoke quotes provided after assessment.
Are there side effects?
Mild redness or bumps may occur but typically fade within hours. Aloe Vera gel soothes irritation, and therapists adjust settings to minimise risks during follow-up sessions.
Do you treat transgender clients?
Yes, we specialise in gender-affirming hair removal for transgender individuals, focusing on areas like the face, chest, and pubic region with tailored laser settings.
