Laser hair removal

At Absolute Bliss we use ELOS for laser hair removal.

ELOS technology provides hair removal for all skin types. Compared to earlier laser and IPL technology, there is less blistering, scabbing, crusting and hyper/hypopigmentation, reduced inflammation and less pain.

Gentle light and electrical energies combine to damage the active hair follicle. This stops the follicle growing new hair and over a number of treatments causes long term reduction in hair in the treated areas. Some dormant follicles will activate new hair growth but will be disabled at a later treatment. Most people require anything from 8-10 treatments one month apart to achieve satisfactory hair reduction. Hair that is not completely removed is usually finer and paler and far less problematic. Individual results will vary depending on different genetic and medical factors.

The sensation during treatment is described as a "hot pinch" or "snapping" sensation. It only lasts a fraction of a second with a warm tingly feeling experienced for a short time afterwards. The majority of people tolerate this sensation however if you are at all concerned about discomfort levels we recommend taking paracetamol approximately one hour before treatment.

Immediately After Your ELOS Hair Removal Treatment:

• The treated hair will gradually begin to fall out on its own over the next month or so. It is very important that you do not tweeze or wax the treated area.

• After treatment there is some temporary pinkness of the skin but most people would return to their daily activities or work immediately.

• Any areas of pigmentation will darken immediately after treatment, then lighten as days progress after treatment.

• Sometimes the treated area may blister. If blistering does occur, please contact us immediately for advice and care.

• It is also very important that you use a broad spectrum sunblock after treatment. Your skin will be more susceptible to UV rays and therefore sun damage could occur.

Remember always that at your initial consultation and following each treatment there is always an opportunity to ask as many questions as you feel necessary. Our trained operators are happy to answer all of your questions and concerns and will be able to advise you on what is best for you and your skin following your hair removal treatments.

Treatment costs start from as little as $55. An initial consultation must take place prior to your first treatment. This 30 minute consultation is charged at $29 but is fully refundable should you decide to begin treatments.
