Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal targets the pigment in the hair follicle with a concentrated beam of light, converting it to heat that disrupts the follicle and reduces future hair growth. Most clients see meaningful, lasting hair reduction across a course of sessions.

Hair grows in stages, and laser only effectively targets follicles that are in their active growth phase. This is why several sessions spaced a few weeks apart are needed to see full reduction. The total number of sessions varies by area, hair type, and individual skin response.

At Platinum Cosmetic Skin Clinic, laser hair removal is delivered by trained therapists, with a clear treatment plan and pricing discussed at your first appointment.

Important: Laser Hair Removal is offered at our Hawker Clinic only. If you're a regular Queanbeyan client, please factor travel into your booking.

What People Come In For

You are tired of the cycle of shaving, waxing and ingrown hairs, and ready for a long-term reduction approach that frees up time, reduces irritation, and saves money over years.

Common reasons clients book laser hair removal:

  • Long-term reduction of unwanted hair on the body or face
  • Difficulty managing ingrown hairs from waxing or shaving
  • Time and cost savings compared to ongoing waxing
  • Smoother skin without the regrowth-shave-irritate cycle

How Laser Hair Removal Works

  • Laser hair removal is a course of treatments, not a one-off - typically 6–10 sessions for visible reduction
  • Sessions are spaced 4–8 weeks apart depending on the area
  • Hair must be shaved before each session, not waxed or plucked (the follicle root needs to be intact for laser to target)
  • Results are progressive, most clients see noticeable reduction by sessions 3–4
  • Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months may be recommended thereafter
