How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal uses a process called selective photothermolysis, where a laser emits a specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by the melanin in hair follicles. This light energy is converted into heat, which damages the follicle and prevents future hair growth.
At City Laser Salon in Leicester, we use two advanced laser systems to ensure effective treatment for a range of skin types and hair colours:
Alexandrite: This is the fastest of all types of lasers, making it ideal for larger areas of the body. This laser has an ultra-high repetition rate and features a large contact-cooled sapphire tip which stays in continuous contact with the skin to keep it cool and comfortable.
Nd:YAG: This system uses a long-pulse laser, which is safe for use on all skin types, including tanned skin. It penetrates deep into the skin, making it particularly effective for anti-ageing treatments as well as reducing skin pigmentation and treating thread veins.
Laser Hair Removal Discount For Women With PCOS
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects 1 in every 5 women in the UK. One of the most common side effects of PCOS is excessive hair growth, which can only be effectively removed and controlled with laser.
At City Laser Clinic in Leicester, we have tailored laser hair removal treatments specifically for women with PCOS. After a course of laser hair removal treatments, your skin will feel smoother and less sensitive.
You'll also enjoy dramatically reduced hair growth as strong and stubborn fair follicles are reduced during the treatment. It's important to note that women with PSOC usually require more sessions for effective hair removal due to thicker and darker hair that's more hormonally driven.
We offer a lifetime 5% discount for laser hair removal if you have PCOS. A GP letter is required to confirm your diagnosis.

Laser Hair Removal: What To Expect
At our Leicester laser salon, your safety and comfort is our number one priority. We pride ourselves on creating bespoke treatment plans for each and every one of our clients. Before you start your treatment, we'll ask you to come in for an initial consultation. Here we'll ask you about your overall health, as well as your hair removal goals. We'll also assess both your skin and your hair type before we get started.
During each session, a controlled laser beam targets hair follicles, gradually reducing hair growth over multiple treatments. You may feel a slight 'pinching' or 'snapping' feeling when the laser is applied, but this feeling will resolve as soon as the laser is moved away from the site. We can also apply our Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) to reduce discomfort.
After each session, we will provide aftercare guidance to maintain optimal results and protect your skin. You may experience some redness, swelling and raised follicles, but these side effects should subside within the first few hours. Most clients need between 6 and 12 sessions, spaced according to their hair growth cycle.

Female Laser Hair Removal FAQs
Does Laser Hair Removal Work For Clients With PCOS?
«At City Laser, we provide laser hair removal services tailored for female clients suffering from PCOS. Laser hair removal can be an extremely effective way of removing unwanted hair, providing long-lasting results. Our laser hair removal treatments significantly reduce hair growth and strong hair follicles, leaving the skin feeling soft and smooth.
Does Laser Hair Removal Work For All Skin Types?
«Yes, laser hair removal is suitable for all skin types. Before your first session, we’ll review your medical history and assess the treatment area to ensure laser hair removal is safe and effective for you. Based on your skin type, hair type, and overall health, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?
«While laser hair removal may cause slight discomfort, it isn’t something to worry about. Most of our clients describe it as a pinching or snapping feeling on the skin, which resolves as soon as the laser pulse is removed. Our technicians can also use a Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) to soothe any discomfort during your session.
How Many Laser Hair Removal Sessions Will I Need?
«The number of hair removal sessions you need will depend on your skin and hair type, as well as how much hair needs to be removed. As only hair that’s actively growing can be targeted, and hair grows in cycles, you’ll require between 6 and 12 sessions to complete your treatment in most cases.
What Side Effects Can I Expect From Laser?
«While serious side effects from laser are extremely rare, you may experience some redness, and some of your hair follicles may be bumpy and swollen. Most side effects usually subside within a few hours to a few days.
Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent?
«Most clients experience a significant and long-lasting reduction in overall hair regrowth after their course of treatment. The hair that does grow back is also lighter and finer. For any remaining hair growth after the initial treatment plan, we recommend touch up sessions at City Laser, which will become less frequent over time. People with PCOS typically need more sessions because the hair is often thicker, darker and more hormonally driven.
Can Pregnant Women Have Laser Hair Removal?
«Laser hair removal is not recommended for pregnant women. For this reason, we advise postponing treatment until after pregnancy. If you’re currently undergoing laser hair removal and discover you’re pregnant, we suggest pausing your treatments until after you’ve given birth and have finished breastfeeding.
Can Laser Hair Removal Help With Ingrown Hairs?
«Yes, laser hair removal is the perfect solution for reducing ingrown hairs, especially in the intimate area or underarms, where skin is extra sensitive.
