Prior to your first laser hair removal treatment at our Richmond salon in London, you are required to book a free consultation so that you can discuss your objectives and we can check your medical history. A patch test is then carried out on your skin to enable your dedicated therapist to determine your suitability for laser hair removal and which laser settings are required for your skin and hair type. During the laser hair removal procedure, the Soprano Ice Platinum applicator will deliver a high repetition rate of short pulses to the dermis (the inner layer of skin). Soprano Ice Platinum incorporates Alma Lasers SHR method, which works by heating and damaging the hair follicles to prevent re-growth while avoiding injury to the surrounding skin for safe and comfortable hair removal.
