Is Brazilian Laser Embarrassing? Here’s Why You Don’t Need to Worry

So here it is, a question that a lot of people are curious about…

Is Brazilian laser hair removal embarrassing?

If you’re feeling a little anxious about this treatment, know that you’re not alone. Brazilian laser hair removal targets a very personal area, and it’s completely normal to feel nervous before your first session. In this blog, we’ll walk you through exactly what happens during a Brazilian laser session and explain why there’s no need to feel awkward.

Let’s Address the Elephant in the Room – Embarrassment

Thinking about laser hair removal on such an intimate area can definitely feel awkward at first. Many people worry about exposing this area or feel self-conscious about their bodies.

But here’s the truth – you’re not alone, and this is entirely normal.

At Surrey Laser Clinic, our therapists are trained professionals who work hard to create a comfortable and respectful environment.

What to Expect During a Brazilian Laser Session

So, what actually happens during a Brazilian laser session?

Let’s break it down step by step –

Private Consultation – When you arrive, we’ll start with a private consultation to discuss any questions or concerns you may have. This is a safe space for you to express any worries, and we’ll ensure you’re fully comfortable with the process before moving forward.

The Treatment Room – Once it’s time for your treatment, you’ll be in a private room. You’ll only need to expose the areas being treated, nothing more. Your therapist will work quickly and efficiently to make sure you’re as comfortable as possible throughout the process.

Routine for Us, New for You – Keep in mind, this is routine work for our team. What may feel awkward for you is simply another day on the job for us. Our top priority is your comfort and safety, and we have extensive experience treating clients who feel exactly like you do.

Why It’s More Comfortable Than You Think

Once the session begins, many clients find their worries fade away quickly.

The process is often much quicker and more comfortable than expected.

At Surrey Laser Clinic, we go the extra mile to make sure your experience is as stress-free as possible.

Here’s how –

  • Privacy and Discretion – We offer discrete cover-ups and work carefully to keep you comfortable.
  • Room Comfort – We ensure the room is set to a comfortable temperature to help you relax.
  • Advanced Cooling Technology – The laser technology we use includes a cooling mechanism, making the treatment not only effective but also more comfortable and less painful.

A Common Reaction: “Why Didn’t I Do This Sooner?”

After their first session, many clients say they wish they had tried Brazilian laser hair removal sooner. They realize that their worries were unnecessary and that the process was far easier and more comfortable than they anticipated.

Ready to Give It a Try?

If you’ve been thinking about Brazilian laser hair removal but feel a little nervous, we’d love to invite you in for a free consultation and patch test. This gives you the chance to see how your skin reacts, ask any questions, and get comfortable with our process.

There’s truly nothing to feel embarrassed about.

Book your free patch test today at Surrey Laser Clinic, and let us help you start your journey toward smooth, confident skin.

Trick & Treat Your Skin Right

Get ahead of the game and prep and protect ahead of your spooktacular creations this Halloween.

Halloween is all about transformation, and you can create amazing looks using makeup tutorials from YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.

However, keep in mind, Halloween makeup is often harsher on your skin.

Here’s how to protect your skin while still enjoying the fun:

Exfoliate Your Skin
Prepping your skin is crucial for a smooth makeup application. Start with exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and avoid makeup creasing or clinging to dry patches. Use a gentle exfoliating mask to resurface and hydrate your skin. This will give you the smooth, radiant base needed for flawless makeup.

Moisturise
After exfoliating, apply a double layer of moisturiser to create a barrier between your skin and heavy Halloween makeup. This helps prevent clogged pores and staining from more pigmented, harsh products.

Be Wary of Ingredients
Halloween and theatre makeup can contain harsher ingredients, with less regulation compared to everyday products. Always check labels and avoid anything containing nickel, cobalt, chromium, or red pigments, which can irritate the skin. Skip fluorescent dyes unless they’re zinc sulfide, which is approved for cosmetic use. Stay safe by sticking to clean, skin-friendly options.

Do a Patch Test
Heavy-duty products like glues, adhesives, or latex can cause allergic reactions or irritation. To avoid issues, do a patch test on a small area, like your forearm, before using them on your face. Adhesive allergies are common, so it’s better to test first than risk a reaction on the big night.

Whatever you do – Have Fun!
….. but even more important than that Take Off Your Makeup Before Bed

It may seem obvious, but don’t forget to remove your Halloween makeup as soon as you get home! Sleeping with makeup on can lead to clogged pores, breakouts, and irritation.

For heavy, full-face makeup, double cleansing is essential. Start with an oil cleanser to break down thick makeup and face paint, then follow up with a regular cleanser to ensure your skin is clean and clear of dirt and debris.

Need assistance this Halloween season? We’re here to help! Whether you have questions about our products, need help with your skincare routine, or just want to chat, feel free to reach out. Our team is ready to ensure your skin stays healthy and radiant throughout all your Halloween fun.

Autumn Skincare Renewal – Time to Embrace the Seasonal Transition

From bold knitwear to skincare upgrades, autumnal new beginnings take many forms. We can let the summer live on in our glowing complexions as temperatures dip.

We have said it once this autumn and we are going to say it again, this means scheduling our favourite big-impact, rejuvenating treatments – PEELS!  

What Is A Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is simply an exfoliating solution containing actives including alpha-hydroxy (AHA) and/or beta-hydroxy (BHA) acids applied by a skincare professional to help the body shift dead skin cells.

AlumierMD’s customised exfoliating peels reduce the visible effects of sun damage, including fine lines and discolouration, and boost radiance, in each clinically proven application. 

Results can be seen after just one treatment, which takes around 30 minutes with no downtime. In-clinic peels give the greatest results but using at-home products between appointments can increase the benefits (AKA better, longer-lasting results and therefore more from your investment). Arriving with clinic-ready skin means it’s prepped for anything — ready to respond to active ingredients and your pro’s magic touch.

It works the other way, too: Chemical peels are a minimally invasive way to exfoliate the top layers of the skin, making it plump and primed and allowing for easier absorption of all the active ingredients from your daily skincare routine, so they technically make your skincare work harder.

How To Boost Your Radiance At Home 

AlumierMD’s hybrid formulas are packed with multiple active ingredients and can deliver deep exfoliation and radiant skin via your daily skincare routine and between appointments:

  • Enzymatic Peel is a revitalising enzyme peel with alpha hydroxy acids and fruit enzymes to exfoliate dead skin cells and promote skin renewal. Kick-starting your exfoliation at home means you won’t be starting from scratch when you get to the clinic and you’ll get the most out of your in-clinic treatment. 
  • Aqua Infusion Mask is the peel-prep hero product, loaded with hyaluronic acid for a hydration boost before treatments. It restores the skin’s natural barrier function, strengthening it and offering protection from irritation. This means your therapist won’t have to navigate sensitive skin and can push your results a little further. 
  • The Prep & Enhance — Discolouration and Prep & Enhance — Rejuvenation each contain four curated products to reduce discolouration and rejuvenate the skin, getting skin into peak performance before professional treatments (including peels!). The kits contain: EverActive C&E® + PeptideRetinol Resurfacing Serum 0.5, Clear Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 30, Intellibright® Complex ( Prep & Enhance: Discolouration) and Ultimate Boost Serum (in the Prep & Enhance: Rejuvenation),

Why Autumn is the Best Time to Start Your Laser Hair Removal Journey

Starting your Laser Hair Removal journey in Autumn or Winter?

What a BRILLIANT move!

As the leaves turn and temperatures drop, you’re not just layering up, you are also setting the stage for silky smooth skin.

Let’s dive into why this seasonal switch is ideal for your beauty routine.

Reduced Sunshine Exposure

Let’s face it, shorter days and wonderfully cosy nights, we naturally spend more time indoors as autumn rolls in. This decrease in sun exposure is a big win for your skin! Laser hair removal is most effective on untanned skin, so you can wave goodbye to those worries about sunburn or sensitivity and with less chance of hyperpigmentation or burns, you’re giving your skin the best chance to shine ……. literally!

Layer Up!

As the temperatures drop, we swap our sundresses for sweaters and our shorts for trousers. This means that the areas you’re treating can be comfortably covered post-session, protecting your skin from the sun’s rays.

Plus, with fewer exposed areas, you can focus on your treatments without worrying about unwanted attention….. it’s all about that stealthy glow-up!

Timing is Everything

Let’s talk logistics! Laser hair removal typically requires multiple sessions, spaced a few weeks apart to catch those pesky hair follicles in different growth stages. By starting in the autumn, you’re giving yourself the luxury of time. You’ll be ready to flaunt your smooth skin just in time for spring and summer, when you want to show off those bare legs or rock that cute swimsuit!

Comfort is Key

Post-treatment, your skin might feel a bit sensitive, no worries! The cooler weather is perfect for this, as it minimises any discomfort from heat or sunburn. You can snuggle up in soft fabrics without the risk of irritation, making the process much more enjoyable.

Sun Safety First!

A quick reminder – regardless of the season, protecting your skin is crucial. Always follow your practitioner’s guidelines about sun exposure during and after your sessions. Sunscreen and protective clothing are your best friends in ensuring optimal results and minimising risks. Remember, glowing skin is all about care and caution!

We’re Here for You!

Got questions? We’ve got answers! Whether you’re curious about the process or ready to book your first session, our experts are here to help.

Schedule a Skin Consultation with us, or give us a call at 01932 731762 for a friendly chat.

So, why wait? Embrace the season and kickstart your path to smooth, hair-free skin today!

Achieve Your Best Skin – The Power of a Professional Consultation

Why Is It So Important?

We all strive for radiant, healthy skin, and making informed decisions about your skincare regimen is key.

While countless products and DIY routines claim to be the solution to all your skin concerns, nothing compares to the expertise and personalised guidance you receive from a professional consultation.

In this blog, we explore the benefits of booking a consultation at a skincare clinic and why it’s a crucial step in achieving your skincare goals.

Tailored Assessments

One of the primary advantages of a skincare clinic consultation is the personalised assessment of your skin. Each person’s skin is unique, influenced by factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and environmental exposures.

Our skincare professionals thoroughly evaluate your skin, identifying its specific needs and concerns. This forms the foundation for creating a skincare plan that caters to your unique skin requirements.

Targeted Solutions

A consultation at a skincare clinic allows you to access targeted solutions for your concerns. Whether you’re dealing with acne, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, or other skin issues, clinic experts recommend the most suitable treatments and products. This ensures that your skincare routine is tailored to your specific concerns, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Exclusive Treatment Options

A key benefit of skincare clinic consultations is access to advanced treatment options that aren’t available over the counter.

Clinics offer a range of transformative treatments, including chemical peels, microneedling, laser therapy, and more.

These procedures, performed by our skilled professionals, are tailored to your skin goals, helping rejuvenate and revitalise your complexion.

Product Recommendations

Navigating the overwhelming world of skincare products can be daunting with so many brands vying for your attention.

During a clinic consultation, skincare experts recommend products best suited for your skin type and concerns. This guidance removes the guesswork from your routine, ensuring you invest in products that deliver real results.

Education and Awareness

A skincare clinic consultation is an educational experience that deepens your understanding of your skin. Skincare professionals explain your skin’s condition, the root causes of specific issues, and the science behind recommended treatments.

This knowledge empowers you to make informed decisions and fosters a sense of responsibility for your skin’s health.

Long-Term Planning

Effective skincare is a journey, not a quick fix. We understand the importance of long-term planning and can create comprehensive treatment plans that span months or even years. This approach ensures your skin receives consistent care and monitoring, allowing you to achieve and maintain lasting results.

Confidence Boost

Investing in your skin’s health through a skincare clinic consultation enhances not just your appearance but your overall well-being. As you notice positive changes in your skin, your confidence naturally increases.

Healthy, glowing skin can elevate your self-esteem and provide a renewed sense of self-assurance.

Fall Into Flawless – Why Autumn is the Perfect Season for a Chemical Peel

Autumn is the perfect time for a chemical skin peel because it’s all about skin recovery and renewal.

After months of summer sun, a peel helps exfoliate those outer layers, revealing fresh, healthy skin underneath.

The cooler weather also aids in healing, reducing the risk of irritation or excessive sun exposure, which can make post-peel skin sensitive.

With winter approaching, a peel preps your skin to better absorb moisturizers, giving you a glowing, smooth complexion all season long!

Here is a little bit more you should know

It’s Post-Summer Skin Repair

After summer, the skin may show damage from sun exposure, such as hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and uneven texture. A chemical peel can help address these issues by exfoliating the damaged outer layers of the skin.

Autumn gives us less Sun Exposure

During autumn, the intensity of the sun decreases compared to summer, and people tend to spend more time indoors. This is crucial because after a chemical peel, the skin is more sensitive to UV rays. Lower sun exposure reduces the risk of post-peel complications, like hyperpigmentation or irritation.

Cooler Weather Promotes Healing

The cooler, milder weather in autumn provides a more comfortable recovery environment. Hot weather can exacerbate skin irritation, sweating, and inflammation, so autumn’s cooler temperatures can enhance the healing process.

Prepping for Winter Dryness

Chemical peels can improve skin hydration and promote cell turnover, which is helpful in prepping the skin before the drying effects of winter. Smoother, healthier skin from a peel can better absorb moisturisers and other treatments.

Improving Skin’s Glow

Autumn peels can give your skin a refreshed, glowing appearance, especially after summer damage. This makes the skin look more radiant as you head into the winter months.

These factors make autumn an ideal season to undergo a chemical peel for rejuvenating and repairing the skin.

Our Most Popular Treatments at Surrey Laser Clinic

and it is easy to understand why ….

Legs, Bikini & Underarms Hair Removal are our top requested treatments, with laser hair removal being the popular option for removing hair from the legs, bikini area and underarms due to its effectiveness and long-term benefits.

Here’s a rundown of what you need to know

How It Works

Laser Technology – Laser hair removal uses concentrated light beams to target melanin (the pigment) in hair follicles. The light is converted into heat, which damages the follicle and inhibits future hair growth.

Hair Growth Cycles – Hair grows in cycles—anagen (growth), catagen (transitional), and telogen (resting). Laser hair removal is most effective during the anagen phase, so multiple sessions are usually required to catch hairs in this stage.

Benefits

Long-Term Results – Unlike shaving or waxing, which only remove hair temporarily, laser hair removal can provide long-lasting or permanent reduction in hair growth.

Precision – Lasers target individual hair follicles, which can be beneficial for treating small areas like the bikini line and underarms.

Reduced Ingrown Hairs – Laser hair removal can minimise the occurrence of ingrown hairs, which are a common issue with other hair removal methods.

Procedure

Preparation – Before treatment, the area should be shaved to ensure the laser targets the hair follicle directly. Some practitioners might apply a cooling gel to protect the skin.

Treatment – During the session, you’ll wear protective eyewear, and the technician will use a handheld laser device to target the hair follicles. The sensation is often described as a rubber band snapping against the skin.

Aftercare – Post-treatment, there may be some redness or swelling, similar to a mild sunburn. Moisturizing and avoiding sun exposure are recommended.

How to Future-Proof Your Skin

Prevent ageing completely?

Currently only available in sci-fi movies, but we do know the best way to avoid wrinkles – future-proofing your skin.

Making a plan that prevents, prolongs, and protects your skin health will prevent the signs of ageing from appearing prematurely. Of course, no one can prevent ageing completely (and we don’t think we should, ageing is a privilege and we believe in ageing well), but you can keep signs of ageing skin, like wrinkles, dark spots, and sagging, away for longer.

It’s a skin ageing prevention strategy that you can build with your skin pro – no matter how old you are right now.

PREVENTING

In recent years we’ve seen a shift away from corrective measures later in life, to skin prevention in younger years. Keeping your skin looking more youthful – which could include some of the visible effects like less wrinkles, firmer skin and a more even tone. So how do you prevent early wrinkles?

You future-proof with medical-grade skincare! Creating a future-proofing plan with your pro will likely begin with a focus on your skin barrier. A resilient skin barrier shows your skin is working efficiently which means less chance of the damage that leads to the visual signs of ageing.

Your pro will help you build a rejuvenating skincare routine that’s right for you, but consistency is key.

The best age-prevention skincare can only work when applied every morning and evening, no matter what. And the products? Well, our hardworking hybrids are formulated to work in synergy with your skin and one another for the best results. Your skin pro won’t keep you on the same routine forever. As you hit your skin goals your pro will update your products, so your skin just keeps on improving.
 

PROTECTING

Environmental aggressors accelerate our natural rate of ageing – free radicals present in pollution, pesticides, and more bombard our skin and lead to premature visible effects of ageing such as wrinkles and dark spots. Antioxidant ingredients work to neutralise these free radicals and help to stop them attacking our collagen. You can boost this protection by applying antioxidant-rich skincare each day.

Enter: Alumience A.G.E.® with a sophisticated blend of antioxidants it helps to protect the skin from free radicals. It also contains EXO-P – an anti-pollutant that creates a breathable shield on the surface of the skin which traps the smallest particles of pollution that come from things like car exhaust fumes. These particles are so tiny that they can penetrate through the hair follicles and get into the lower layers of the skin and cause environmental ageing and damage, particularly to skin that’s already sensitive.

L-ascorbic acid is another incredibly powerful antioxidant that the body utilises to make vitamin C – known as the glow boosting vitamin. As well as its brightening powers, vitamin C can help to protect skin from environmental aggressors AND both prevent and improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles, you’ll find it in our EverActive C&E™ + Peptide.

What is the no.1 cause of the premature signs of ageing? Yep, you know it – UV rays!

So, protecting your skin 365 days a year with a powerful sunscreen will help to preserve your skin and prevent damaging rays from attacking your skin’s architecture. Our range of mineral sunscreens offer broad-spectrum protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays. You can choose tinted or clear, moisturising, or matte and all feel comfortable, lightweight and are so easy to apply.
 

PROLONGING

Collagen is a key component in our skin’s architecture, but when we hit our mid-twenties, we start to lose around 1% of collagen every year and this only increases as we age.

Cell turnover naturally slows down which leaves the complexion dull and sluggish and natural hyaluronic acid – which helps to hydrate and plump skin also decreases.

The good news is that you can protect your skin’s architecture by banking your collagen. Collagen banking is a relatively new term, but we’ve been talking about this for years, essentially you target your collagen before it declines and thus preserve it.

How? Well, retinol and vitamin C have both been proven to prevent and dramatically reduce the appearance of collagen-related degradation such as lines, wrinkles and scarring, alongside peptides, and our skincare is based on this principle.

Every AlumierMD product works in harmony to protect and prolong the skin’s construction for everyone. No matter what age you are now, the best time to start is today.
