Laser Treatments
Precise, targeted improvement in skin tone and texture.
Procedure overview
Laser treatments use targeted light energy to address specific skin concerns — including pigmentation, redness, visible vessels, or overall texture — depending on the laser type and settings used.
Treatment is tailored to skin type and concern, with a plan built around realistic, gradual improvement rather than a single dramatic change.
The patient pathway
- 01
Consultation
Skin type and specific concerns are assessed to select the appropriate laser type and treatment plan.
- 02
Treatment
The laser is applied to the treatment area, typically taking 15 to 30 minutes depending on area size.
- 03
Settling period
Redness or mild swelling typically settles within a day or two; some laser types involve a period of visible flaking.
- 04
Follow-up
A review is offered after initial healing, with a course of sessions often recommended for cumulative results.
Questions patients ask
Is laser treatment painful?
Sensation varies by laser type, often described as a warm snapping feeling; cooling and numbing options can help manage comfort.
How many sessions are needed?
This depends on the concern being treated — some respond to a single session, others benefit from a course.
Is there downtime?
This varies by laser type and intensity — some have virtually none, others require several days of visible recovery.
Is this safe for all skin tones?
Suitable laser type and settings vary by skin tone; this is carefully assessed during consultation to minimise risk.
