How Does it Work?

At Laser Hair & Body on the Central Coast we use the TGA Approved IPL technology which effectively targets hair reduction across various shades, from dark and light brown to dark blonde and red. The process impairs the hair follicle, making it unable to grow more hair over time.


Prior to treatment, we conduct a skin patch test to ensure your safety and comfort, ensuring the best possible outcome. Additionally, we provide and recommend suitable home care treatments to complement your IPL sessions tailored specifically for you. We harness IPL for various purposes, including:

Acne Management: Targeting acne at its source for clearer, smoother skin.

Pigmentation Correction: Erasing sunspots and acne scars for a more even complexion.

Photo Rejuvenation: Renewing skin's vitality with plumping and tightening effects.

Vascular Therapy: Eliminating lesions and angiomas for even, healthy skin tone.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How many treatments will I need?

    The number of treatments needed varies depending on your hair type. Typically, most clients undergo 8-10 sessions to achieve optimal results, as hair becomes finer with each session. However, maintenance treatments may be necessary to ensure a lifetime of smooth skin.

  • How long do I have to wait between treatments?

    Our treatments are conducted at regular intervals to ensure optimal results. Typically, we recommend waiting 4-6 weeks between sessions.

  • What can I expect after my treatment?

    Following your session, you can expect facial hair to typically take 7-10 days to shed, while body hair may take slightly longer (around 2-3 weeks). It's important to note that individual results may vary depending on factors such as your skin type, hair coarseness and natural hair growth cycles.

  • Is it safe?

    IPL is generally considered safe for hair removal and skin rejuvenation. However, to ensure your safety and address any skin care concerns, a consultation is required before proceeding with the procedure.

  • What does it feel like?

    During IPL hair removal, many clients describe the sensation as akin to a warm rubber band flicking against the skin. However, discomfort levels can vary depending on individual pain thresholds. Rest assured, your therapist will always prioritise your comfort and employ techniques to minimise any discomfort during the procedure.
