Is laser hair removal worth it, and will it work on my skin tone?

These two questions come up in almost every first consultation. Both are worth addressing directly.

On effectiveness: laser hair removal produces lasting hair reduction, not always complete permanent removal after a single course. Most clients see 80-90% reduction in hair growth across a treated area following a full course. Hair that does regrow tends to be finer and lighter. For many people, this removes the need for regular waxing or shaving entirely. Whether that is worth it depends on how much time and money you currently spend on alternative methods and how much that hair bothers you.

On skin tone: IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) devices, which many salons use, struggle with darker skin tones because the light can target melanin in the skin rather than in the hair follicle. Medical-grade diode and Nd:YAG lasers, which we use at Changes Clinic, are designed to treat a full range of skin tones safely, including Fitzpatrick skin types V and VI. Your practitioner will assess your skin and hair type at your free consultation and confirm which laser is best for you. Here is what we offer at Changes Clinic.

About laser hair removal at Changes Clinic

Our VTCT Level 4 qualified, experienced & insured practitioners use diode and Nd:YAG laser technology to deliver targeted energy to hair follicles, damaging them at the root and reducing their ability to produce new hair. Each session targets follicles in the active growth phase, which is why multiple sessions are needed to catch all hairs at the right stage.

We treat all areas of the body and face: legs, underarms, bikini and Brazilian, back, chest, arms, upper lip, chin, jawline, and more. Treatment plans are tailored to the area, your skin type and your hair type.

Treatment at a glance: - Treatment time: 15-60 minutes depending on area - Sessions typically needed: 6-8 for most areas, with annual maintenance possible - Interval between sessions: 4-6 weeks for facial areas, 6-8 weeks for body - Results timeline: progressive reduction from session 2-3 onwards - Downtime: mild redness for 24-48 hours, typically - Skin tones treated: all Fitzpatrick skin types

Laser hair removal performed by VTCT Level 4 qualified, experienced & insured practitioners

VTCT Level 4 is the industry-recognised qualification for laser and light-based treatments. It covers anatomy, skin science, laser physics, contraindications and safe practice. Not every salon or clinic requires their practitioners to hold this qualification before offering laser treatments. At Changes Clinic, it is a baseline standard.

Our practitioners carry out a full skin and medical assessment before your first session. This determines which laser parameters are appropriate for your skin and hair type, and identifies any contraindications. We do not treat without this assessment in place.

Changes Clinic is CQC-registered. You can find further detail about the laser technology we use and the full treatment process on our laser hair removal service page.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I went for an ultrasound scan due the NHS appointment waiting time was a longtime away, the service I recieved from Andrea was excellent, second to none, Andrea explained everything including the results of the scan straight afterwards.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common questions

Is laser hair removal safe?

Medical-grade laser hair removal is safe when a VTCT-qualified practitioner carries out a thorough skin assessment beforehand and uses the correct parameters for your skin and hair type. The most common side effects are temporary redness and mild sensitivity in the treated area, which settle within 24-48 hours. Our practitioners complete a patch test and full consultation before your first session to confirm the appropriate settings for your skin.

How is laser hair removal different from IPL?

IPL uses a broad spectrum of light, which makes it less precise and less effective on darker skin tones. Medical-grade laser uses a single targeted wavelength that penetrates to the follicle more accurately and with greater energy. Diode and Nd:YAG lasers, which we use, are more effective across a wider range of skin and hair types than IPL devices typically found in salons. The technology makes a real difference to the outcome.

Can laser hair removal be combined with other treatments at Changes Clinic?

Yes. Laser hair removal works alongside almost any other aesthetic treatment. Some clients combine it with skin treatments such as acne treatment or professional skincare alongside their hair removal course. We advise on timing and sequencing at your consultation so that treatments do not interfere with each other.

How far is Changes Clinic from Littlehampton?

Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. From Littlehampton the journey takes around 35-40 minutes by car via the A27. Parking at the clinic is free.
