For many people, unwanted hair growth is a daily frustration. Whether it’s constantly shaving, scheduling regular waxing appointments, or battling with ingrown hairs and irritation, the cycle feels endless. At Takroni Clinic, we offer a medical-led solution that provides long-term results: laser hair removal.
From men looking to reduce chest or back hair, to women wanting smooth legs, underarms, or bikini line, and those managing hormonal conditions such as PCOS, laser hair removal is one of the most effective treatments for freedom from unwanted hair.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment in the hair follicle. The follicle absorbs the laser’s heat, which damages its ability to regrow hair. Over time, this leads to smoother skin and dramatically reduced hair growth.
At Takroni Clinic, we use the Alma Soprano Ice Titanium, one of the most advanced lasers available. It is fast, virtually pain-free, and safe for all skin types, making it ideal for treating both larger areas (such as the back or legs) and more delicate regions (such as the face or bikini line).
Why Now Is the Best Time to Start a Course
Laser hair removal works best when hair is targeted in its growth phase, which is why multiple sessions are essential. Starting a course now means that by summer, you’ll be well on your way to smoother, hair-free skin.
- For women: Many patients begin a course during autumn or winter, so by the time warmer months arrive, they can enjoy results without relying on shaving or waxing. It’s also an excellent way to maintain results if you’ve had previous sessions.
- For men: Laser hair removal is increasingly popular among men looking to reduce thick hair on the chest, back, or shoulders, or for those wanting a sharper beard line or tidier neckline.
Popular Treatment Areas:
For Women
- Legs and arms
- Underarms
- Bikini line (standard, extended, or Hollywood)
- Face (upper lip, chin, jawline, sideburns)
For Men
- Chest and back
- Shoulders and upper arms
- Beard shaping (tidy neckline and cheeks)
- Hairline (receding or excess growth)
Laser Hair Removal for PCOS
For women living with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), unwanted hair growth is often one of the most visible and distressing symptoms. Higher levels of androgens overstimulate hair follicles, causing thick, coarse hair to appear on the face, chin, chest, or abdomen.
Why Laser Is So Effective for PCOS
Traditional methods like waxing or threading only provide temporary results, and shaving can make regrowth feel even more noticeable. Laser hair removal offers a longer-lasting solution by directly targeting and reducing the activity of hair follicles.
How Many Sessions Are Needed?
Because PCOS is hormonally driven, patients typically require more sessions than average. While most people see great results with 8-10 treatments, PCOS patients may need 10-12 sessions plus more frequent maintenance every 3-6 months in the first 1-2 years, then twice a year to stay on top of regrowth.
At Takroni Clinic, our medical team understands the complexities of PCOS and will create a tailored treatment plan that works with your individual needs.
Benefits Beyond Smooth Skin
Laser hair removal is about more than reducing hair; it’s about improving comfort and confidence in your daily life.
- Confidence boost: No more worrying about visible stubble or last-minute waxing appointments.
- Fewer ingrown hairs: Laser reduces irritation and bumps compared to shaving or waxing.
- Cost-effective: While the initial investment is higher, it saves years of spending on temporary methods.
- Safe and precise: Especially important for hormonal hair growth or sensitive areas.
Safety and Professional Care
Unlike at-home devices or other in-salon machines, you can rest assured that you are having treatment carried out with the safest, fastest and most effective laser hair removal device on the market. Each patient will have a consultation with our highly trained senior therapist, including a patch test to ensure your safety.
This ensures your treatment plan is tailored just for you and that treatment will be safe and effective for you. Your consultation will take into account your medical history, skin type, hair colour, and any hormonal influences.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Because hair grows in cycles, laser hair removal requires several sessions to capture follicles at the optimal stage.
- Most patients: 8-10 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
- PCOS patients: 8-12 sessions, plus regular maintenance.
- Men with thicker hair: May require additional sessions for larger areas like the chest or back.
