Understanding unwanted hair

Unwanted hair can be treated with laser hair removal or electrolysis. The right choice depends on your hair colour, skin tone and the size of the area.

Laser is fast and effective for darker hair on larger areas. Electrolysis treats each follicle individually and works on any hair colour.

What causes unwanted hair?

Knowing the cause helps us choose the right treatment. Common causes include:

  • Genetics
  • Hormonal conditions such as PCOS
  • Hormonal changes and menopause
  • Some medications
