At Freyja Medical, Wrexham, laser hair removal emerges as a superior choice for some individuals due to several reasons:

Laser hair removal directly targets the hair follicle:

This method employs a concentrated beam of light to target the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicle. The laser energy gets absorbed by the pigment, converting to heat and damaging the hair follicle, which inhibits future hair growth. This direct targeting ensures more precise treatment and delivers better results for our clients.


Laser surpasses IPL in effectiveness:

Generally, laser hair removal is considered more effective at reducing hair growth compared to IPL hair removal. The concentrated laser energy can reach the hair follicle more effectively, enhancing its efficacy.


Laser hair removal results in fewer side effects:

While some individuals may experience side effects such as redness, swelling, and blistering with IPL hair removal, these occurrences are generally less common with laser hair removal. The precision and targeted nature of laser energy contribute to fewer side effects.


Our laser is suitable for all skin types:

Laser hair removal can effectively treat a wider range of hair and skin types compared to IPL hair removal. This is because the laser energy is absorbed more efficiently by darker, coarser hairs and can be adjusted to different skin tones. IPL, with its multiple wavelengths, poses risks when used on darker skin.


Laser hair removal necessitates fewer treatments:

Typically, laser hair removal requires fewer sessions than IPL hair removal to achieve desired results. The concentrated laser energy can effectively reach the hair follicle, resulting in a higher rate of destruction.


In summary, laser hair removal stands out as a more effective, precise, and potentially longer-lasting hair reduction treatment with fewer side effects. However, it’s crucial to consult with our trained and experienced therapists at Freyja Medical to determine the most suitable hair removal option based on individual needs and skin type.
