Laser hair removal has become one of the most popular treatments for achieving smooth, hair-free skin. But despite its growing popularity, many misconceptions still surround this advanced treatment. At MedLaser Clinics, we believe in educating our clients with facts so they can make confident, informed decisions. Below, we separate myth from reality.
Myth 1: Laser hair removal is extremely painful
Thanks to modern technology like the Primelase HR system we use at MedLaser Clinics, discomfort is minimal. Most clients describe the sensation as a warm flick or light snap. The advanced cooling system in our laser ensures comfort throughout the treatment, even on sensitive areas.
Myth 2: Laser hair removal only works on light skin tones
While older laser systems struggled with darker skin tones, Primelase HR is safe and effective for all skin types. Its precision and strength allow us to tailor treatments to each individual’s skin and hair profile without compromising safety.
Myth 3: You’ll see results after just one session
Although some reduction is noticeable after your first treatment, laser hair removal requires multiple sessions for best results. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser is most effective during the active growth phase. That is why we offer packages of 6 sessions to ensure long-lasting results.
Myth 4: Laser hair removal causes ingrown hairs
Actually, the opposite is true. Laser hair removal helps prevent ingrown hairs by targeting the follicle directly. Over time, this results in smoother skin with less irritation, especially in areas prone to shaving-related bumps and ingrowns.
Myth 5: The treatment is unsafe or not suitable for intimate areas
Laser hair removal is completely safe when performed by trained professionals using certified equipment. At MedLaser Clinics, all treatments are carried out by qualified practitioners. We offer full body treatments, including Brazilian and Hollywood, with comfort and discretion at the core of every session.
Myth 6: The results are not permanent
While no method offers 100 percent permanent hair removal, laser hair removal provides permanent hair reduction. Many clients enjoy long-lasting results, with only occasional maintenance needed after completing the recommended course.
Myth 7: It’s too expensive
With new payment options like Klarna and our current offer of 6 sessions for £400, laser hair removal is more accessible than ever. Considering the lifetime cost of waxing and shaving, many clients find it to be a smart long-term investment.
Fact: Laser hair removal is safe, effective and empowering
Our team at MedLaser Clinics is here to guide you through every step of your journey. Using the world’s strongest medical-grade laser, the Primelase HR, we ensure high performance, faster results and the safest experience possible.
