If a client hasn’t received laser hair removal with us before, the client must have a patch test before receiving any treatment.
The client must shave a small patch in the areas that they wish to have treated 24 hours before the consultation and patch test. If the consultation and patch test is for a full body package, the client must shave a patch on the forearm and lower leg. If the client is looking for their face to be treated, a patch on the chin and the back of the neck must also be shaved.
Laser hair removal (before treatment)
We kindly ask all clients to ensure that body hair is shaved, we recommend 12-24 hours before the appointment. If a client attends their appointment and is unshaven, our therapists may deem the client as untreatable. In this event, we reserve the right to turn the client away and therefore, the session will be lost.
We kindly ask that all clients have removed all fake tan, body creams and deodorant before having treatment. If a client is receiving laser treatment on the facial area, we kindly ask that make-up and creams are removed before the appointment.
Laser hair removal (during course of treatment)
If a client is undergoing a course of laser hair removal, we advise the following:
Avoid sitting in direct sunlight to prevent getting a natural sun tan
Avoid wearing fake tan
Only shave between treatments, do not wax thread or pluck hairs
Wear a minimum of SPF 30 at all times
If any of the above are not adhered to by the client, our therapists may deem the client as untreatable. In this event, we reserve the right to turn the client away and therefore, the session will be lost.
Facial treatments
If clients are able to remove make-up and facial creams before facial treatments, then this would be appreciated as it allows more time for the treatment itself. If clients are unable to removal make-up and facial creams before treatments, then our team will be able to remove this for you.
