Laser Hair Removal in Colchester

Why Choose Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal targets the hair follicle using focused light energy. Over a course of treatments, this can significantly reduce hair growth, leaving the skin smoother and reducing the need for regular shaving or waxing.

Benefits include:

• Long-term hair reduction

• Smoother skin

• Fewer ingrown hairs

• Less shaving rash and irritation

• Suitable for many areas of the face and body

• Quick treatment times for smaller areas

How much does laser hair removal cost?

​

This depends on the area being treated. Our full price list can be found here

We offer both a pay-as-you-go plan, and an 8 session treatment plan. 

What to Expect

Your journey starts with a consultation and patch test. This allows us to assess your skin and hair type, explain the treatment, answer your questions and make sure laser hair removal is suitable for you.

During treatment, the laser is passed over the skin and targets the hair follicles. Most people describe the sensation as a quick flick against the skin. Treatments are usually quick, with smaller areas such as the underarms taking only a few minutes.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

Laser hair removal works best as a course because hair grows in different cycles. Most people require around 6–8 sessions, although this can vary depending on the area treated, hair type, skin type and individual response.
Maintenance sessions may be recommended to help maintain your results.

Is Laser Hair Removal Safe?

When performed correctly by trained professionals, laser hair removal is generally very safe. At The Egan Clinic, your treatment begins with a consultation and patch test to reduce risks and ensure the settings are appropriate for your skin.

Temporary redness or mild sensitivity can occur after treatment, but this usually settles quickly.

Before Your Treatment

Before laser hair removal, you should:

• Avoid waxing, plucking or threading before treatment

• Shave the area before your appointment

• Avoid tanning or sunbeds

• Avoid active skincare products on the area before treatment

• Tell us about any medication or medical conditions

Full pre-treatment advice will be provided before your appointment.

Aftercare

After treatment, we recommend:

• Avoiding heat, saunas, steam rooms and hot baths for 24–48 hours

• Avoiding sun exposure on the treated area

• Wearing SPF on exposed areas

• Avoiding harsh exfoliants or active skincare temporarily

• Not waxing or plucking between sessions

You can continue shaving between treatments if needed.
