Long-Term Hair Reduction for Smoother Skin
Say Goodbye to Daily Shaving and Frequent Waxing
Unwanted hair can be a hassle, especially when it keeps growing back no matter how often you shave, wax or pluck. If you’re looking for a long-term way to reduce hair growth safely and effectively, light-based hair removal may be worth considering.
At Dr Joyce Lim Skin & Laser Clinic, we offer a treatment that targets the root of the hair,
Why Women Choose Hair Removal Treatments
There are many reasons women turn to long-term hair reduction, including:
- Ingrown hairs or skin irritation from shaving and waxing
- Convenience and time-saving benefits
- A desire for smoother skin
- Confidence in wearing sleeveless tops, swimsuits, or shorts
- Managing hair growth due to hormonal changes
Whether it’s for hygiene, comfort or lifestyle, this is a personal choice, and we’re here to support you.
How It Works
The treatment uses targeted light energy to reach the hair follicles beneath the skin’s surface. The energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, which helps to weaken the follicle and slow down regrowth. With each session, hair becomes finer, sparser, and easier to manage.
It’s suitable for many areas of the body, including:
- Underarms
- Legs
- Bikini line
- Arms
- Upper lip and chin
- Back and chest (also available for male patients)
What to Expect
Sessions are relatively quick, ranging from 15 minutes to about an hour depending on the treatment area. Most women describe the sensation as a mild stinging or warm flick, well tolerated without the need for numbing cream in most cases.
After treatment, the skin may appear slightly pink, similar to a mild sunburn, but this usually fades within a few hours. You’ll be advised to avoid sun exposure and use gentle skincare products for a day or two.
How Many Sessions Do I Need?
Hair grows in cycles, which means multiple sessions are typically needed to target all follicles effectively. Most women require about 6–8 sessions spaced a few weeks apart to see lasting results. Maintenance sessions may be recommended for long-term hair control.
Dr Joyce Lim will assess your hair and skin type during your consultation and suggest a treatment plan that suits your needs.
Is It Safe for All Skin Types?
This treatment can be adapted to different skin tones and hair types. However, results may vary depending on the colour and thickness of your hair. Dr Lim will ensure the approach is safe and appropriate for your skin.
