If you’ve ever searched for hair removal in Colchester, you’ve probably come across endless options waxing, shaving, threading, creams. But the only method that gives long lasting, scientifically proven results is laser hair removal. At Remedi, we specialise in advanced treatments using a solid-state Nd:YAG laser, one of the safest and most effective medical grade technologies available.
What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal works by targeting the pigment (melanin) inside each hair follicle. When the laser’s light is absorbed, it converts into heat energy. This heat travels down into the follicle, damaging the germ cells at the base of the hair.
Germ cells are responsible for producing new hair growth. Once they’re damaged, they gradually shed and lose their ability to regenerate, meaning that over a series of treatments you’ll see finer regrowth, slower regrowth, and eventually permanent reduction.
Why a Solid-State Nd:YAG Laser?
Not all lasers are equal. Many clinics use cheaper diode or IPL machines, which scatter energy and can’t penetrate as effectively. At Remedi, we use a solid state Nd:YAG laser, which has several benefits:
- Precision targeting – the energy is delivered exactly where it’s needed.
- Deeper penetration – ideal for treating coarse or stubborn hair.
- Safe across skin types – Nd:YAG is especially effective on darker skin tones.
- Consistent power – medical-grade results you won’t get with at-home devices.
This ensures clients achieve noticeable, lasting results safely and efficiently.
The Process: What to Expect
- Consultation & Patch Test – we assess your skin and hair type, check for contraindications, and perform a safe patch test.
- Treatment Sessions – during each session, the laser is applied in carefully measured pulses. You may feel warmth or a mild tingling sensation, but the process is quick and well-tolerated.
- Hair Shedding Phase – in the days and weeks following treatment, hairs in the active growth stage will begin to shed. This is a sign the laser has disrupted the germ cells.
- Reduction Over Time – with each session, more germ cells are disabled, leading to longer-lasting smoothness.
How Many Sessions Do You Need?
Hair grows in cycles, and the laser can only target follicles in the active growth (anagen) phase. That’s why a course of 6–12 sessions, spaced over 12-18 months is typically recommended for best results. Some hormonal areas may need maintenance sessions over time.
