LASER HAIR REMOVAL

The cutting-edge technology of the SMART Diode represents the pinnacle in effective, fast and comfortable laser hair removal for all skin types. Combining adaptive triple wavelength technology with optimum power output, the SMART Diode delivers exceptional results.

Superfast and pain free

With 66% more power, SMART Diode laser machines are superior to other machines such as the Soprano laser range.

Its cooling technology makes the whole experience virtually pain free  – even like a relaxing and warming massage, according to our clients. Its bigger head size allows us to deliver treatments faster and more efficiently. The extensively customisable settings ensure that we give the best treatment possible to each client, individually.

But what really made us choose SMART Diode was its triple wavelength technology, capable of achieving the best laser hair removal results on any skin.

How does the SMART Diode work?

Triple wavelength technology means we can achieve optimum results on all skin types and hair colours. The Smart Diode allows us to customise your treatment by adjusting the wavelength (amongst other settings) to target specific hair and skin types. Here’s a look at each of them:

ALEX 755nm

Able to deliver fantastic hair removal results across a wide variety of skin types and provide maximum melanin absorption, the 775nm is synonymous with the Alexandrite laser wavelength.

DIODE 808nm

The DIODE 808nm is truly the industry’s finest when it comes to Diode laser hair removal. Due to its impressive power, deep penetration and average absorption rate, the DIODE 808nm is suitable for any skin type. The perfect option for treating arms, cheeks and legs, its moderate penetration targets the bulge and bulb of the hair follicle.

YAG 1064nm

Although the YAG 1064nm contains the smallest melanin absorption rate, its strength is in the greatest penetration and depth of any of the lasers, making it effective on darker skin types. Ideal for underarm and pubic hair removal, its superior depth and penetration targets the root of the hair.

Thanks to this technology, we are able to offer the best treatment on all parts of the body for any customer, no matter the gender, skin colour or hair type. 

How long does a treatment take?

Using revolutionary e-motion delivery the treatment is completed in minutes. The treatment applicator is swept back and forth repeatedly across the designated area whilst rapid pulses of low energy light are pulsed into the skin ensuring full coverage and effective treatment. 

Does it hurt?

Unlike traditional laser or IPL, which uses high energy levels that may cause discomfort and pain, the SMART Diode treatment is gentle and comfortable, resulting in a pleasant warming of the skin. Active skin cooling through the applicator capable of -4ºC ensures complete comfort even in the most sensitive areas.

Who is it suitable for

SMART Diode treatments can be performed on all skin types. The SHR technology of low energy pulses allows for the successful treatment in both dark and fair skin types alike, even tanned skin, and is suitable for both women and men.

How many treatments will I need?

Each treatment affects approximately 30% of the hair within the target area. We recommend a minimum of 8 treatments, with some hair types requiring more.

Anywhere on your body where you have unwanted hair that’s dark enough to draw the laser on, Laser hair removal is safe and effective even in the sensitive areas with 90% of unwanted hair permanently removed. This is a most excellent value for money considering the cost and time of maintaining silky smooth skin of undesirable body hair can quickly mount up.

Some of the benefits of using laser technology for hair removal are the reduction of ingrown hairs and excessive hair growth (PCOS), having smoother skin leading to less skin irritability, permanent hair reduction meaning no more shaving or waxing. Yaaay!

Laser hair removal is the best and convenient alternative to the bother of having to regularly shave or wax,  these will cost you more money in the long-term, and the time spent which we all could do more of.

If you are considering and wish to deliberately remove body hair then using the latest and safest Laser hair removal technology is just right for you. the human body generally grows hair all over, some are barely noticeable and others fine, and other areas can have prominent, thicker hair. When the thicker hair is in unwanted places or in excessive growth, you can use laser hair removal which is directed towards the elimination or overall reduction of the undesirable body hair.

This is achieved by targeting the hair follicle with laser light, the energy of the laser light breaks down and destroys the hair follicle, which stops the follicle from producing any further unwanted hair growth. By delivering an intense beam of light, the hair follicle absorbs it while leaving unaffected the surrounding tissue.

This process is called selective photothermolysis, this targets the hair pigment which is just another word for Melanin and in turn heats up and destroys the follicle.

It specifically targets the hair and not the skin. Laser hair removal is different from electrolysis, the way electrolysis works are by directing an electric current into each hair follicle which is painful and takes much longer to perform. Lasers are brilliant because they can target a large number of hairs in one go and is not painful.

After treatment, the dead hair rises through the skin and once pushed through the surface it then sheds after a couple of weeks. It will seem that the hair is growing as they are being pushed out by the new skin. You can expect after the second treatment, depending on your hair and skin type the area may start to look patchy and this is because certain hair follicles have stopped producing new hairs.

The skin can become red immediately following treatment, it’s only a few clients who experience itching of the treated area as the hair is being pushed out. This can cause the hair follicles where the surface has been treated to appear raised and bumpy, you can expect this to subside within a few hours but in some cases can take up to 48 hours for some clients.

The amazing laser hair removal technology using laser light targets only the hair that is actively growing, this is called the anagen phase, so multiple treatments are necessary to get all the hair treated because they are not all in simultaneous growth. This is the reason, it requires several sessions to successfully catch all of the hair in the anagen phase.

Our best techniques for reducing facial and body hair is advanced Laser Hair Removal. This procedure is quick, easy and highly effective. We are one of the industry’s leading laser hair removal specialists in London.

Here, at The Mirage Beauty , we are committed to only using the latest medical grade lasers, which simply means highly effective results for you.

Our dedicated laser hair removal specialists mean successful hair reduction for any skin type as a result of having many years experience.

This is how it works, the process begins with your initial consultation to discuss the area of treatment and how best to proceed. During the consultation, you will also have a patch test performed in the area of concern you have selected for treatment.

On your first day of treatment, the area that needs to be treated will be cleaned and shaved or you are welcome to do this yourself on the day before your visit. Once the laser is ready for use, the handpiece will be applied to the area of skin to be treated. You may experience a slight tingling sensation on the surface of the skin during treatment based on reports by some of our clients.

Soothing aloe gel will be applied at the end of your treatment and you can usually have your next treatment within six weeks.

Laser hair removal is most effective for areas from underarms, the sensitive bikini area to your legs, and even your face. If your significant other has too much chest hair or embarrassing back hair then Laser hair removal is one of the leading techniques to help with these body concerns.

All our dedicated staff members are highly trained and specialize in treating men and women and both dark and Asian skin types.

You could have long-term hair reduction in just a few sessions, with minimal downtime and highly effective results. Laser hair removal works best on those with dark hair. This is because darker hairs with more pigment will find the laser hair removal procedure most effective because the hair removal laser light traveling through the skin is being attracted to the pigment in the hair follicle.

If you have black to light brown hair then you will typically see the best results because the hair is more pigmented than those with lighter hair. However, any skin or hair colour can see results from this treatment.

Laser hair removal can treat all skin tones,  your Mirage Beauty will adjust the laser to suit your hair and skin type. For darker skin types Lasers with longer wavelengths are used because the laser goes deeper and circumvents melanin in the skin which avoids causing burns. Our medically trained team are fully trained in the use of our state of the art equipment

If you want to find out whether your unwanted hair has enough pigment for treatment just schedule an appointment today and one of our therapists will be happy to discuss this in-depth at your consultation.

By having a patch test, it allows us to select the right laser for your skin type, and to recalibrate it exactly to achieve the best results possible for you, whilst ensuring standards of highest safety at all times.

If you have had a tan, or have had a recent reaction to something, it’s extremely important to tell us if your skin is not its usual colour, because this can dramatically affect our ability to give you the best laser hair removal treatment.

When you are looking for laser treatments for hair removal London wide, it’s not exactly a case of one size fits all.  All of us have different natural skin types and tones and we find that some of our clients may have had a tan after a holiday, for instance.

There are areas of the body that are far more sensitive to treatment than others. Equally, varying hair types are also a variable to be considered, even over our own body.

Some hair may be soft and fine depending on the area of the body and in other areas, it can be more thick and coarse.

The number 1 factor when it comes to successful hair removal treatment of this type is to tailor the laser procedure very precisely to the individual.

These are the considerations that we make when tailoring a treatment plan specifically for you so that you can receive a pain-free, relaxed and successful treatment.

A course of laser hair treatment can have long-lasting results, so it is definitely worth the financial investment for looking your absolute best, because you’re worth it!

The best recommendation has always been the word of mouth. Just read the testimonials by public figures who have absolutely loved their experience with The Mirage Beauty

Laser hair removal can permanently reduce the hair. However, Hair can come back after a period of time. There are four stages of hair growth Anagen, Catagen, Telogen & Exogen. For the laser session to be most affective the hair should be at the growing stage (Anagen)

The best laser for Fitzpatrick 1V-V1 skin is the NDGYAG 1064nm due to the wavelength being much longer than other lasers. This laser only targets the hair and is not attracted to the skins pigment.

Unfortunately grey or blonde hair does not have much pigment to attract the laser. Therefor the laser will not be the best option for removal. We recommend waxing or using an epilator for temporary removal.

Redness /sensitivity/slight irritation are all completely normal side effects which will last up to 48 hours. We recommend to use alovera gel to calm the skin after a laser session.

Between 8-10 sessions of laser hair removal is recommended with top up sessions every couple of months for maintenance. 

IPL (intense pulse light) has the same affects as laser however laser is direct and IPL has different wave lengths. Because IPL has different wave lengths it can be used for many superficial skin treatments such as Rosacea and fine lines/wrinkles and can improve overall skin texture.

Burns are not common however If laser is not carried out by a professional, issues can arise. If you have more pigment in you skin there is a higher risk of burns. Our staff are trained to treat all skin types successfully.

Laser does not cause longer term pigmentation changes, straight after the treatment the skin may look slightly darker and more irritated which is completely normal and will settled own within 48 hours.

Results can been seen from just one session the first thing our customers notice is after the first session the hair takes much longer to grow back after the 2nd and 3rd session the hair is not as course and then eventually the hair will just not grow back by the 8th to 10th session.

Laser hair removal is not painful our lasers have a cooling system in which cools the skin, we also have a cooling gel that can be applied to the skin during your treatment. You will feel a slight warmth and a tingling sensation. Lasers have developed dramatically over the years. 10-15 years ago lasers could only be used for skin type 1-3and was known for being extremely painful.

Laser hair removal is pricier than waxing however we see laser as an investment as this is a permanent solution. Having waxing every week can add up to £1000s a year. We have many different packages offers our most current offer for full-body laser hair removal is £199 per session

Yes, Laser hair removal is the most effective way to get rid of ingrown hairs. As the laser targets the root of the issue.

The laser emits a light which is then absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle. Then heats and destroys derma papilla (root)

Almost anywhere can be treated with laser hair removal laser works best on terminal hair. laser is not recommended for vellus hair (thin fussy hair with not much pigment)

The minimum age for laser hair removal is 14 however we only accept customers over the age of 18 due to the hormonal changes in the body that commonly happens between the age of 14-18 so for the best results and most effective results we will only treat age 18.

The are many different lasers and brands of machines on the market we used the XLASE medical grade machine which can treat skin and vascular lesions and laser hair removal. We used the following lasers. NDYAG, DIODE, ALEXANDRITE, IPL
