What is Laser Hair Treatment?
Laser hair treatment is a safe, non-invasive procedure designed to reduce unwanted hair growth. At La Belle Forme in Glasgow, we use medical-grade laser technology to target hair follicles with precision. The laser’s light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, heating and damaging the follicle to help prevent future growth.
It’s suitable for various areas of the body such as the face, underarms, legs, bikini line, back, and chest. Results develop gradually over a course of sessions, and most people notice a significant reduction in hair growth.
While treatment works best on darker hair and lighter skin, our advanced laser systems may also be suitable for a range of skin tones. You’ll receive a patch test and personalised plan during your initial consultation to ensure the treatment is safe and effective for you.
What Happens During Treatment?
Your journey at La Belle Forme starts with a thorough consultation, where one of our trained practitioners will assess your skin and hair type, explain the process, and carry out a patch test.
On the day of your session, your skin will be cleansed and a cooling gel applied. The handheld laser device is passed over the area, delivering short pulses of energy. You may feel a slight tingling or snapping sensation, but most patients find it manageable and quick.
Each session targets hair at a different stage of growth, so several treatments are typically required to achieve the best results.

FAQ's
Most people require between 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart to see the best results. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser is most effective during the active growth phase, which is why multiple treatments are needed. Your practitioner will advise on a personalised treatment schedule based on your hair and skin type.
Laser hair treatment offers a long-term reduction in hair growth, but results can vary. Some hair may regrow over time, though it often appears finer and lighter. Occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended to help maintain your results.
Most people describe the sensation as a mild tingling or a quick snapping feeling, similar to a rubber band against the skin. The discomfort is usually brief and well tolerated. Our advanced laser systems also include cooling technology to make the experience as comfortable as possible.
Yes, laser hair treatment can be safely used on the face, including the upper lip, chin, jawline and sideburns. A patch test and consultation will ensure the treatment is suitable for your skin type and any sensitivities you may have in these areas.
You should avoid plucking, waxing, or threading the area between sessions, as these can disrupt the hair growth cycle targeted by the laser. Shaving is safe and often recommended. It’s also important to avoid excessive sun exposure and wear a high-SPF sunscreen on treated areas to protect your skin.
