Laser Hair Removal & Waxing Treatments

Lyra Laser hair removal treatment

Laser hair removal is the most permanent hair removal treatment available.

The Laserscope Lyra Laser system for hair removal is unique in that it delivers long-pulse laser light down to the follicles, destroying them or impairing their growth. The laser beam is computer guided and passed through a cooling window to protect the skin.

It is a safe and gentle method for removing unwanted hair without skin irritation, discoloration or inflammation associated with other lasers.

A series of treatments is generally required to achieve the long-term improvement patient’s desire. Sessions for an under arm or a small bikini area can take as little as 15 minutes, while larger areas may require up to 60 minutes or more.

The Lyra Laser provides the best technology currently available for hair removal, offering outstanding results with the widest range of skin tones and hair colours.

Waxing removes unwanted hair fast

Waxing is a quick and easy way to remove unwanted hair from different body areas. If you’re in a hurry and looking for immediate results this treatment will suit you.

We can treat both men and women with warm wax for their:
                       Face
                       Back
                       Chest
                       Under Arms
                       Legs
                       Bikini Line

Waxing is the best way to remove blonde, red or grey hair which does not respond well to laser hair removal.

Patient Testimonials

Mary, aged 27 years

I heard that you could have unwanted hair removed by laser and so rang around to find out about the treatment. I chose the Skin Centre as they have the Lyra Laser which is the latest and most effective laser available in New Zealand. Also, because the Skin Centre is a specialist medical centre, I had more confidence in going there than elsewhere.

So far I have had 4 treatments to my bikini line. The reduction in my hair re-growth was noticeable after the very first time, though I understand that most people require between 8 and 10 treatments for all the hair to go.

I am so impressed with the treatment that I am now having my underarms treated as well.

I would highly recommend laser treatment at the Skin Centre to anyone considering a more permanent treatment of unwanted hair.
