What is laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light that targets pigment in the hair shaft, heating the follicle to reduce regrowth over a course of treatments. At The Esthetic Zone in Masaki, we adjust settings for your skin type and treatment area so sessions stay as comfortable and predictable as possible.
Most people achieve a lasting reduction—not always 100% removal of every single hair—because hormones, fine blonde hairs, and dormant follicles can still play a role. Your therapist explains a realistic timeline before you start.
It is a popular choice for underarms, face, bikini line, and legs when you want smoother skin with less shaving or waxing between visits.
Your journey in three steps
-
Consultation and patch test
We review your goals, medications, sun exposure, and hair colour in the area. When appropriate, a small patch test helps confirm your skin responds well before full treatment.
-
Personalised laser session
The area is prepared and cooled as needed, then the laser is applied in passes with settings matched to your comfort and skin response. Sessions are typically straightforward—you can usually return to light activities the same day.
-
Plan and aftercare
We book your next visit at the right interval for the area treated, share sun protection and soothing tips, and track progress so you see steady improvement across your course.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most areas need a course of roughly six to eight sessions spaced four to eight weeks apart, depending on body area, hair density, and your goals. Fine hairs and hormonal areas sometimes need touch-ups later.
You may feel warmth or a quick snap sensation; cooling and settings adjustments keep most people comfortable. We assess your skin type and history to choose parameters responsibly, including for deeper skin tones.
Avoid tanning and heavy sun on the area for two weeks beforehand, shave the day before unless we instruct otherwise, and skip waxing or plucking so the follicle is present for the laser to target.
Hair grows in cycles. Spacing sessions catches new hairs as they enter the active growth phase, which improves overall reduction compared with treating too close together.
Often yes for separate areas and simple dental appointments—ask when you book so we can schedule both teams without rushing either treatment.
