Understanding the Treatment
What Is Laser
Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment in hair follicles, disabling them so hair grows back finer, lighter and eventually stops growing altogether. At our Cardiff Gate clinic we use medical-grade diode technology suitable for all skin tones — including darker skin types that older systems couldn't safely treat.

The Benefits
Why Choose Laser Hair
Removal at Cardiff Gate?
Medical-Grade Diode Laser
We use medical-grade diode technology — the gold standard for safe, effective hair reduction across all skin tones, including Fitzpatrick V and VI.
Permanent Hair Reduction
Most clients see up to 90% permanent hair reduction after a full course. Hair that does regrow is finer, lighter and far less noticeable.
Fast Treatment Sessions
Underarms in under 10 minutes, full legs in around 45 minutes. Easy to fit around work in East Cardiff, Newport or Caerphilly.
Smooth, Stubble-Free Skin
No more shaving rash, ingrown hairs or waxing pain. Just smooth skin you can show off, in or out of clothes, year-round.
Qualified Cardiff Practitioners
Treatments are carried out by trained, qualified laser practitioners in an HIW-approved clinic — never untrained operators or unregulated salons.
Inclusive, Confidential Care
Our Cardiff Gate clinic is a welcoming, judgement-free space for everyone, with private treatment rooms and complete discretion.
Step by Step
Your Laser Hair Removal Treatment Journey
Before Your Treatment
- Shave the area 24 hours before treatment — do not wax or pluck
- Avoid sun exposure and self-tan for 2 weeks before
- Arrive with clean skin — no make-up, deodorant or moisturiser on the area
- Patch test required at consultation (24 hours before first session)
During Your Treatment
After Your Treatment
- Mild redness for a few hours — like a light sunburn
- Return to normal activities straight away
- Avoid sun, hot baths and saunas for 24–48 hours
- Hairs shed naturally over the following 1–3 weeks
Treatment Protocol & Results
Recommended course: 6–8 sessions
Spaced 4–6 weeks apart depending on body area

Ideal Candidates
- Anyone tired of shaving, waxing or epilating
- Clients with darker, coarser hair (best results)
- All skin types — including Fitzpatrick V and VI
- Those with ingrown hairs, folliculitis or shaving irritation
- PCOS-related excess hair growth (face, chin, body)
- Anyone wanting a long-term, permanent solution
What We Can Treat

When Not Suitable
- Pregnant or breastfeeding (delay until after)
- Active tan or recent sun exposure
- Very blonde, white or grey hair (consider electrolysis)
- Recent use of Roaccutane (wait 6 months)
