Benefits of Shoulders Laser Treatment
Smooth, Hair-Free Skin
Experience the confidence of smooth skin. Our laser treatment significantly reduces hair growth, eliminating the need for daily maintenance.
Precision Targeting
Advanced laser technology targets individual hair follicles with pinpoint accuracy, ensuring effective removal while protecting the surrounding skin.
Time-Saving Luxury
Reclaim your time. After a few sessions, hair growth is drastically reduced, freeing you from time-consuming daily grooming routines.
Cost-Effective
Invest in long-term results. Laser hair removal proves to be more economical over time compared to the endless cost of razors and waxing appointments.
Gentle on Skin
Our state-of-the-art lasers include cooling technology to ensure maximum comfort, making the treatment suitable and safe for all skin types.
Your Journey to Smooth Skin
Consultation
Your journey begins with a bespoke consultation. We assess your skin and hair type, discuss your medical history, and tailor the optimal laser settings to ensure safe, effective, and radiant results.
Preparation
The area to be treated will be cleansed and prepared. While we recommend shaving 24 hours prior, we ensure the skin is perfectly prepped. Protective eyewear is provided to ensure your safety throughout the procedure.
Laser Application
Our advanced laser technology is adjusted to your specific hair density and skin tone. The light energy targets the pigment in the follicles, effectively inhibiting future growth while leaving the surrounding skin untouched.
Cooling & Comfort
Comfort is paramount at Rose Hill. Following the laser application, integrated cooling technology or a soothing gel is applied to calm the skin instantly, reducing redness and ensuring a pleasant experience.
After-Care
Post-treatment care is vital. We apply a soothing aloe vera gel to promote healing. We advise avoiding direct sun exposure and using high SPF protection for two weeks to maintain the health and radiance of your skin.
Repeat Sessions
To achieve a permanently smooth beardline, multiple sessions are required. These are typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, targeting hair follicles during their active growth cycle for maximum effectiveness.
Before & After Treatment
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning beds for at least 2 weeks before your session. Shoulders are often exposed, so cover up or use SPF 50+.
- Shave the Area: Shave your shoulders 24 hours prior to your appointment. This ensures the laser energy is directed at the hair root beneath the skin, not the surface hair.
- Skip Waxing or Plucking: Do not wax, pluck, or epilate the shoulder area for 4-6 weeks before treatment. The hair follicle must be intact for the laser to work.
- Clean Skin: Arrive with clean skin free of lotions, creams, oils, or deodorants on the shoulder area. These can block the laser or cause irritation.
- Consult Your Specialist: Inform us of any medications you are taking, especially antibiotics or retinoids, as these can increase photosensitivity.
- Avoid Heat: Avoid hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and intense exercise for 24-48 hours. Heat can aggravate the treated area and cause inflammation.
- Use Sunscreen: Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen to your shoulders daily if they will be exposed to the sun. This prevents hyperpigmentation.
- Moisturise: Keep the area hydrated with a gentle, fragrance-free lotion or aloe vera gel to soothe the skin and reduce any redness or sensitivity.
- Loose Clothing: Wear loose-fitting, breathable cotton clothing for a few days after treatment to avoid friction and allow the skin to heal comfortably.
- Follow Up: Stick to your treatment schedule (usually every 6-8 weeks) to ensure you catch the hair in its active growth phase for the best long-term results.
- The shoulders can be slightly more sensitive than the back due to thinner skin near the bone.
- However, most clients describe it as a quick, bearable snap. Our advanced cooling technology ensures the treatment remains comfortable.
- We recommend avoiding heavy backpacks or tight straps for at least 24 to 48 hours.
- Friction on the freshly treated skin can cause irritation, redness, or folliculitis (inflammation of the hair follicles).
- Shoulders are a "high-risk" area for sun exposure. You must avoid tanning beds and direct sunlight for 2 weeks before and after treatment.
- If you are going outdoors, wearing a t-shirt or applying SPF 50+ is mandatory to prevent pigmentation marks.
- Yes, laser is highly effective on coarse, dark hair often found on men's shoulders.
- You will see a significant reduction in density and thickness after just the first few sessions, with hair becoming finer and lighter over time.
