Frequently Asked Questions

When seeking out a new service, particularly when it comes to having a treatment for your body, it is natural to have some questions.

A big part of our approach here at Harborough Laser Clinic is making sure you are as well informed and educated as possible when it comes to your treatment and taking care of your body.

Here are some answers to common questions that other clients have found useful.

If you find an answer to your question isn’t covered below, please feel free to ask us here.

The light energy provided by the laser heats the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicle and effectively destroys it without damaging the surrounding cells. Leaving you with smoother lasting results.

This is a common concern that many clients have before beginning their hair removal journey and is often a reason they haven’t sort treatment sooner. That is because with standard laser hair removal treatments, you can feel what is described as a ‘hot flick’ of an elastic band during treatment – sounds a little unpleasant doesn’t it?

No need to worry – The unique built-in sapphire cooling tip of the Motus AY treatment means you will feel little to no sensation at all. Meaning that the brand-new pain free Motus MOVEO treatment provides even more comfort for clients, especially when treating an area with lots of dense and dark hair.

Because of its built-in technology, the Motus AY is the first FDA and NHS approved Alexandrite laser that can be used on all skin types (1-6) as well as successfully treating dark to fair hair types with unparalleled results. Making treatment suitable for most people.

A consultation with your clinician will be taken out prior to treatment to ascertain if the treatment will be successful for you.

Grey/white hair has no melanin so is not recommended for treatment.

Treatment directly over tattooed areas is also not advised. (If you have a tattoo near or around the treatment area, this can be covered to protect it and will not affect your treatment.)

When choosing Harborough Laser Clinic for your treatment you are choosing the most advanced “gold standard” device available, from the UK’s Number 1 Laser & IPL manufacturer Lynton Lasers.

The revolutionary Motus AY MOVEO is the world’s first and only laser hair removal technology to deliver two gold-standard lasers – Alexandrite and Nd:YAG in a virtually painless mode for all skin and hair types!

Offering a host of benefits including:

  • Pain-free using a contact-cooled sapphire tip.
  • Quicker treatment times (over 30% quicker than most traditional laser treatments).
  • Able to treat ALL skin types.
  • Ideal for treating more challenging fine hair.
  • Safe, lasting results.

Not only offering Alexandrite laser – the gold standard laser for hair removal; The Motus AY also utilises Nd:YAG laser for vascular and pigmented lesions and skin rejuvenation.

The Moveo device moves smoothly and quickly across the surface of the area being treated causing a mild tingling sensation.

The Motus AY uses a sapphire cooling tip to soothe the surface of the skin during treatment to help protect against any uncomfortable sensations, burns, and pigmentation changes.

The treated area may feel a little warm afterwards.

The area treated may appear slightly red after treatment and the hair follicles may look slightly raised or bumpy for 24-48 hours. Other side effects are rare and full aftercare information will be provided for you to take home.

Pricing across all services varies dependant upon the area to be treated and the type of treatment required.

Our prices start at £55 for upper lip hair removal ranging upwards for larger areas such as the legs, arms and bikini.

Payment Options – We offer commitment incentives of up to 20% saving for treatment courses paid in full as well as PAYG and 0% financing options for those who wish to spread the cost of their treatment.

Everyones situation is different and the number of sessions required varies from client to client and depends on many factors.

We recommend booking a minimum of 6 sessions to secure long-lasting hair reduction and effective results. Your body hair goes through a resting and growth cycle, the treatment is only effective on hairs that are in their growth stage, and not all the hairs in your treatment area will be growing at the same time.

To achieve the best results, your clinician will advise during your consultation session and throughout your treatment.
