In today’s world, more individuals are seeking effective and lasting solutions for unwanted hair. Among the various options available, laser hair removal has long been seen as an effective and cost effective choice, especially with advancements in technology. One of the leading platforms in this field is the Soprano Ice laser hair removal system by Alma Lasers, which has revolutionised how we approach hair removal.
A Painless Experience
One of the standout features of the Soprano Ice system is its pain-free or virtually pain-free approach to hair removal. During treatments, clients generally experience a pleasant, comfortable massaging treatment, Occasionally, you may experience a small ping or ‘zap’, which is helped by communicating with your practitioner if it is getting more than comfortably warm, but this is why we mention the “virtually pain-free” aspect. In fact, many of our clients find the experience so comfortable—especially when treating larger areas, such as the backs of legs, back, and shoulders—that they often relax enough to fall asleep!
What to Expect in Terms of Treatments
The number of treatments required can vary based on individual responses, but for most body areas, we generally recommend a minimum of eight sessions. This typically results in a significant, permanent reduction in hair growth, with clients enjoying a 70-80% drop in hair density and the hairs that do grow are almost always softer and finer, so far easier to manage.
When it comes to facial hair removal, the process can be a bit more challenging due to the density of hair and the hormonal influences on hair growth. Therefore, we recommend starting with at least eight treatments for the face, as this is the minimum needed to see noticeable results. But treatments on the lip, chin or even full face can really improve results, and take away a lot of the stress for women caused by facial hair.
For men, facial hair is often more resilient due to higher testosterone levels, which can lead to robust hair growth that doesn’t respond as effectively to laser treatments so it is rare that we would agree to start a treatment package of facial hair removal for men. However, we are committed to inclusivity and offer specialised treatments for transgender clients, which can be discussed in detail during the consultation.
The Benefits Go Beyond Aesthetics
Laser hair removal is an excellent solution for many concerns beyond simply removing hair. Those who struggle with ingrown hairs and shaving rashes often find relief through this method. The results can be remarkable, providing not only smoother skin but also a great deal of comfort.
It’s important to note that no laser is not suitable for treating white, grey, or very light hair—such as blonde or some red hues—since the laser works by reacting with the pigment in the hair. For those with these hair colours, electrolysis remains an alternative option.
Intimate Area Treatments
Due to the pain-free nature of the Soprano Ice system, we are also able to offer treatments on intimate areas, including the bikini line and peri-anal regions for both men and women. This capability represents a significant advantage for our clients seeking comprehensive hair removal options. Commonly known as ‘Brazilian’ or ‘Hollywood’ bikini treatments, these are very popular and probably one of the most common laser hair removal treatments that we carry out here at our Lichfield clinic.
Membership Packages for Best Value
We encourage all our clients to explore our membership packages, which provide the best value for long-term hair removal needs. A tailored membership can ensure you receive continuous care while enjoying the best savings.
