Frequently Asked Questions
What is Candela Laser Hair Removal Machine?
The Candela laser is one of the world's most trusted and clinically proven platfotms for laser hair removal. It uses advanced laser technology to precisely target hair follicles with controlled pulses of light, destroying them at the root without damaging the surrounding skin. Candela is used by leading clinics globally, and are known for delivering fast, effective, and long-lasting results across a wide range of skin types.
What hair colours can it treat?
Candela laser works best on dark hair, black, dark brown, and medium brown, as the laser targets the melanin (pigment) in the hair follicle. Lighter hair colours such as blonde, & red contain less melanin and may not respond as effectively to laser treatment. During your consultation, your therapist will assess your hair and skin type to determine whether laser hair removal is suitable for you and what results you can realistically expect.
How many treatments will I need?
Most clients achieve optimal results with 6 to 8 sessions. This is because hair grows in different cycles and the laser can only effectively treat hair in the active growth stage. Sessions are typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart depending on the area being treated. Some clients may require occasional maintenance session after their initial course to manage any regrowth.
Is the treatment painful?
Most clients describe the sensation as a quick snap, similar to a rubber band flicking against the skin. The Candela system features a built in Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD), which delivers a burst of cooling cryogen to the skin milliseconds before each laser pulse, making the treatment significantly more comfortable. Tolerance varies from person to person and by treatment area, but majority of clients find it very manageable.
How long does a session take?
Treatment times vary depending on the treated area. Smaller areas such as lip or underarm can take as little as 5 to 15 minutes, while larger areas like the legs can take 45 to 60 minutes. Your therapist will give you a more accurate time estimate at our consultation.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal with Candela laser hair removal. Some clients may experience mild redness or slight sensitivity in the treated area for a few hours after the session, similar to a light sunurn. This typically settles quickly. You can return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment, but we do advise avoiding sun exposure, heat, and strenuous exercise for 24 to 48 hours post-treatment.
Is Candela Laser Hair Removal safe?
Yes. Candela laser systems are clinically tested and have an extensive safety recorded backed by decades of clinical research. Our treatments are preformed by trained and qualified professionals who tailor each session to your individual skin and hair type. A patch test is carried out prior to your first treatment to ensure your skin responds well. Safety is our top priority, and we follow strict treatment protocols at each session.
