Laser hair removal works by using Alexandrite and ND:Yag laser energy to destroy hair follicles. Exposing the follicles to this results in hair removal as the heat destroys follicles in the skin and stops growth. This is not IPL.
Typically, it’s used for cosmetic preferences to get rid of unwanted hair but it’s also a successful treatment for a number of medical conditions including excessive hair growth. The number of treatments you need will depend on what it is you are treating and individual reactions.
Here, we explore what laser hair removal can be used for. But if you’re interested in arranging a free consultation or want to know about our services, please get in touch.
Reasons for getting laser hair removal are personal but some of the most common laser hair removal treatments are:
The most common areas that people want to remove hair from include:
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment. As mentioned, the lasers we use are pain-free so during the session, you won’t feel anything. Afterwards, it’s rare that you’ll experience any symptoms but we do advise that you avoid exposing the skin to sunlight until after your treatment course has finished. Appropriate sunscreen is also advised because your skin will be more sensitive to any sun exposure – no matter the weather.
Laser treatments may not be suitable if you’re pregnant or for certain skin types. We’d be happy to discuss your individual circumstances beforehand though. Prior to any treatment, we will conduct a patch test on your skin. If there is no reaction, your full treatment can begin 7 days after.
Traditional lasers are painful. After all, not many people are too keen on having an elastic band flicking their skin for 30-60 minutes. But now there is a much quicker and pain-free option available which is why so many people are choosing us for permanent hair removal.
The laser we use works by heating the hair follicle up and breaking it down. This means the hair cannot grow back in the follicle, causing long-lasting results and meaning you’ll no longer waste time shaving or waxing.
It’s very important that you enlist the help of a professional for any laser or cosmetic procedures. When you get in touch with SLC Clinics, we’ll discuss your individual needs before establishing a personal treatment plan for you.
Laser hair removal is safe for all skin types but we’ll work with you to adjust your treatment to suit your skin and hair type. We use the revolutionary Motus AY – a new painless system that combines Alexandrite with Nd:YAG laser sources, providing treatments to many dermatological concerns with just one system.
The MOTUS AY is the first FDA approved Alexandrite laser that can be used on all skin types (1-6), so no one misses out. It’s also one of the first lasers that works on soft or fair skin.

This is a common concern that many clients have before they begin their laser hair removal journey. More traditional laser hair removal methods might have been a tad uncomfortable, but the Motus AY offers our clients a virtually pain-free solution.
Say goodbye to painful methods of laser hair removal and hello to the world’s best. The Motus AY revolutionising laser hair removal.
Using the Moveo handpiece attached to our Motus AY, we deliver concentrated bursts of laser energy to the hair follicles in the treatment area. The hair follicles which are in their active growth stage absorb this energy as heat which travels down the pigment of the hair to the follicle which is the target. The heat damages the follicle and decreases the follicles ability to grow back. After multiple treatments, some follicles can be rendered dormant.
Traditionally laser hair removal feels like the snap of an elastic band against the skin, sounds a little unpleasant doesn’t it?
The Motus AY uses a sapphire cooling tip to soothe the surface of the skin during treatment to help protect against any uncomfortable sensations, burns, and pigmentation changes. The system uses different wavelengths to gradually heat up the skin to a temperature that damages the hair follicles to reduce and eliminate hair regrowth without harming the surrounding tissue.
EFFECTIVE
Traditional methods of laser hair removal deliver laser energy in one quick zap. The Moveo handpiece repeatedly passes over small areas causing gradual heating of viable hair follicles. This distributes the energy evenly, more effectively and at peak efficiency, doubling the energy transfer in comparison with standard laser systems.
Moveo is the only technology in the world that allows 755nm Alexandrite laser to be safely applied to all skin types. Darker skins have traditionally been restricted to less effective wavelengths such as Diode or Nd:YAG however now can be treated with Alexandrite – the gold standard laser for hair removal.
The Motus also utilises Nd:YAG laser for vascular and pigmented lesions and skin rejuvenation.
FAST
Moveo enables faster treatments times through the frequency of the laser and the 20mm large tip size.
SAFE
The Motus AY is safe for all skin types. The utilisation of gradual heating and the contact cooling system integrated into handpiece guarantees maximum patient comfort.
PAIN-FREE
Pain-free and truly effective laser hair removal for all skin types.
We recommend booking a minimum of 6 sessions to secure long-lasting hair reduction and effective results. Your body hair goes through a resting and growth cycle, the treatment is only effective on hairs that are in their growth stage, and not all the hairs in your treatment area will be growing at the same time.
To achieve the best results consult with your practitioner as you go.
