Laser Hair Removal FAQs
Laser hair removal removes unwanted hair by destroying the hair’s follicle with a precision laser light. Some results are instant, but it’s likely that you’ll need between 2-6 treatments to completely remove your unwanted hair.
In Adelaide, laser hair removal specialists charge an average of $45, but you should expect to pay anything from $18 and $180.
Laser hair removal can be very effective in keeping treated areas hair-free for months, or even years. Better still, when hair does regrow, it’s likely to be less noticeable. Maintenance treatments may be required to keep areas hair-free – check with your dermatologist.
It depends on your level of hair regrowth. Most people have maintenance laser treatments every 4 to 6 weeks, but it differs from person to person. Ask your dermatologist for guidance on when it’ll be safe for you to have follow-up treatments.
Yes. It’s normally recommended that you shave the area you want treated the day before your appointment. Shaving the area helps to prevent thermal damage to your skin’s surface and means the laser will directly target the hair follicle.
No, laser hair removal is not a permanent solution, but it will help you keep the treated area hair-free for months or more.
Book your next laser hair removal appointment in Adelaide with Fresha
Booking your next aesthetics appointment in Adelaide with Fresha is easy. Quickly compare prices and reviews for aesthetics clinics, then book your appointment safely and securely online. What’s more, you’ll get instant confirmation. And you can even pay for your treatment in advance. Sometimes simple is all you need. So say hello to Fresha.
Your VIP experience with Fresha awaits. There are over 10 five-star businesses in the area, all ready to roll out the red carpet for you. So consider this your official invitation for an unrivalled treatment. You're on the guestlist.

With more than 10 world-class skin and body businesses in your area, you can be sure you're booking with the best. Whatever you need to be your best self.
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive way to rid the body of unwanted hair. It's a progressive permanent hair removal treatment, which destroys the hair follicles with a blast of light.
New follicles can begin to grow, so it may take a few sessions to keep hair-free skin on show. This disruption to the regrowth cycle means less time shaving and waxing, and more time enjoying softer, smoother skin. Laser treatments can get to work in one quick session. Expect to spend around 20 minutes at top skin clinics in Adelaide, with prices starting at $18.
We're only just getting started at Fresha. With highly successful software for salons and clinics, along with 700 million appointments clocked up for customers like you, we're pretty proud. And we'd like to help you share in some good feelings, too. Find your next aesthetics appointment in Adelaide, Australia, or take us on your travels. We’re active in over 120 countries around the globe. And if you hit any bumps in the road, our help centre is here to get you back up and booking. Since founding in 2015, Fresha has helped millions of customers feel their best selves. Now it's time for you.
