If you’re thinking about laser hair removal – now is the time!

Get started now, and by the time the spring/summer season rolls around again you could have ditched the razor for good.

Laser hair removal has become very popular on these shores in recent years. It eliminates the pain of waxing, and the regular hassle of shaving, and in the long run it works out cheaper too.

However, if you’re opting for laser, you need to know more about the types of treatments being offered to you and the differences between them.

Many salons and clinics offer IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments. These are technically not lasers at all. These are generally much lower powered machines, and therefore less effective. You will quite often see offers for treatments using IPL on deals websites, and there is a reason they go for such cheap prices!

What you need to look out for is a medical grade laser offering which is FDA approved, which means they’re proven to work. You’ll find this is the type of laser treatment offered at leading salons.

Each area is treated with a course of six sessions, and you can concentrate on one area or combine more than one. Bodily areas you can opt for treatment on include the underarm, bikini line and legs, to name but a few.

So how does it work? Well, the medical-grade laser emits wavelengths of light which is absorbed by the pigment in the hair (melanin). If the surrounding skin is relatively light compared to the colour of the hair, then the entire energy of the laser will be concentrated in the hair shaft, effectively destroying it without affecting the skin or follicle. This is why laser hair removal works best on light skin and dark coarse hair, which has the most pigment.

Therapie Clinics nationwide use only Medical Grade Lasers as opposed to IPL which means superior results, quicker treatment times and patient safety. Therapie Clinics are equipped with the Candela Alexandrite and Soprano XL BLU, which are the most precise laser machines in the world.

Their therapists are among the most experienced in Laser Hair Removal in the world and have carried out more than 200,000 treatments. Therapie are also the only clinic to have a professional in-house training school providing certified laser training at the Therapie Laser Academy, Ireland’s first laser academy.
