What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive procedure that uses concentrated light to target and destroy hair follicles. The laser’s energy is absorbed by the melanin (pigment) in the hair, damaging the follicle and inhibiting future growth. This FDA-approved treatment can be performed on nearly any area of the body – including the face, legs, arms, underarms, bikini line, and back. Our clinic uses advanced technology that’s suitable for all skin types, making laser hair removal accessible to clients throughout Southend and Essex.

How does it work at Nish Clinic in Southend?

We use the Alma Soprano Titanium SHR™ (Super Hair Removal) – one of the most advanced systems available. This technology combines three wavelengths (755nm Alexandrite, 810nm Diode, and 1064nm Nd:YAG) to target hair at multiple depths and growth stages. Treatments are carried out by experienced practitioners who understand the diverse needs of our Essex clients. The laser is gently moved across the skin using a gradual heating method, targeting hair while protecting the surrounding tissue. This approach ensures safe, effective results for all hair and skin types, including darker complexions.

Why choose Alma Soprano Titanium SHR™?

This system offers superior comfort and results. Unlike traditional lasers that use intense pulses of energy, SHR™ gradually heats the skin, making the experience virtually painless – many describe it as like a warm massage. The three-wavelength approach ensures more comprehensive hair removal, while integrated cooling and real-time temperature monitoring maximise safety and comfort.

Benefits of laser hair removal

Laser hair removal offers long-lasting results and can be more cost-effective over time than waxing or shaving. It also reduces the risk of ingrown hairs, razor burn, and skin irritation. Many of our clients report a boost in confidence and convenience after completing their treatment course.

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients require 6–8 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on the area, hair thickness, skin type, and growth cycle. As the laser is most effective during the active growth phase, multiple treatments are necessary for best results.

Are there any side effects?

Side effects are typically mild and temporary, such as slight redness, swelling, or sensitivity. These usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days. Our team will explain what to expect and provide full aftercare guidance during your consultation.

When will I see results?

Hair reduction is often visible after your first session, with more noticeable results after 3–4 treatments. Full results are achieved by completing the recommended course, ensuring long-term hair reduction.
