Laser hair removal

Depending on the patient’s skin and hair type, most areas require approximately 6-8 treatment sessions to permanently reduce the number of re-growing hairs by more than 80%.

Most people find Soprano laser hair removal to be very comfortable and generally pain free. It uses Alma Laser’s SHR method, which is the only clinically proven method of laser hair removal that is virtually painless.

Yes. The laser treatment device has been cleared by the FDA & Health Canada for permanent hair reduction on nearly all skin types.
It has been used to treat hundreds of thousands of patients worldwide, with amazing results. Alma’s patented SHR In-motion and DualChill™ technology protects your skin by keeping it cool and free of discomfort during the procedure.
While dark skin is more sensitive to the heat used in laser treatment, Soprano Ice Platinum’s SHR method has been clinically proven to be safe and effective for dark skin types.
Rather than exposing the hair follicle to a single high energy pulse which can cause trauma to skin with a high melanin count, SHR gradually heats the skin until the required heat energy is delivered to the hair follicle. This makes SHR the safest laser hair removal option, including for dark skinned patients.

A laser hair removal treatment won’t dominate your entire day; all treatment areas can be completed in 30 minutes or less. While Soprano Ice Platinum technology offers the fastest laser hair removal solution available on the market today, the duration of treatment depends on the area being treated. Treatment time can range from a few seconds for a small area such as above the upper lip, to 30 minutes for the entire back.

Things We Need To Know:
Recently diagnosed? New pregnancy? New medications? We kindly request that you inform us about these changes, as certain medical conditions and medications may not be compatible with laser treatments. Your well-being is our foremost concern, and in some cases, rescheduling your appointment might be necessary to ensure your safety and health.

For the first 24 hours: Avoid wearing makeup, lotions, moisturizers, and deodorant. Keep the area clean & dry.
For the next 48 hours: No hot showers (only lukewarm or cold), no sweating/gym, no swimming for 48hrs after your laser treatment. Avoid the sun and use a sunscreen with minimum SPF 30+.
First 3 days: Avoid any exfoliation. After 3 days, you can begin to exfoliate treated areas.
First 4 days: Do not shave for at least 4 days after the treatment. You can shave as often as you need to in between treatments. Please do not shave unless needed. Avoid irritating lotions containing AHAs or BHAs such as glycolic, lactic, or salicylic acids.
For the next week: Avoid retinoids if treating the face. You must use a SPF30+ spf on the treated areas for after treatment to protect the skin as it will be more sensitive to the sun damage if directly exposed to the sun’s rays.

Avoid waxing after having soprano laser hair removal. This is quite important to ensure continuity of the treatment. If you have waxed, the next treatment will have to be postponed for 4 weeks after waxing. Your hair can take up to 2 weeks to fall out. It may fall out as late as the 14th day after treatment. If some hair doesn’t fall out within 14 days, please don’t be alarmed. You may shave that area and inform your laser technician about it on your next visit.
