This treatment works best on those with pale to olive skin types and darker shades of hair, however we always recommend coming into the clinic for a free consultation before proceeding with laser hair removal.
Although it can work on darker skin types, it runs the risk of stripping the skin of its natural colour, but this is something we will assess and consider during the initial consultation. This is because the laser is looking to remove the dark particle from a lighter surface, and if the hair and skin is darker, the laser can get confused. This is similar for those with red, grey and light blonde hair no matter their skin tone.
