Laser Hair Removal is a non-invasive process of hair removal by means of exposure to pulses of laser light that destroy the hair follicle.
It targets and destroys the hair at the root while other methods only remove hair from the surface.

Our laser hair removal procedures are provided by our fully trained medical aesthetician and are safe for most people, comfortable for all skin types, and ultra fast.

One of the benefits of laser hair removal is that typically most people don’t find the treatment itself to be painful, especially when compared to waxing.

Each pulse lasts less than a second, producing a slight tingling feeling, which may feel like a rubber band snap on a bit more sensitive areas such as the upper lip.

Of course everyone’s pain tolerance is completely different, and we definitely take that into consideration, and can adjust to ensure you have a comfortable and effective experience!

Here at Banff Aesthetics we proudly use the Venus Velocity™ laser machine. This machine offers a built-in cooling feature to reduce the heat sensation, while protecting the skin in order to reduce the risk of pain and redness.

The answer is yes!
The Venus Velocity™ laser machine we use at Banff Aesthetics is safe and suitable for all skin and hair types.

The Venus Velocity™ comes with the proven efficacy of diode laser hair removal technology, making it safe and effective for all skin types, light to dark- including tanned skin.

You will most likely likely need anywhere from six to eight laser hair removal treatments. You can schedule your sessions approximately six to eight weeks apart which will allow for the ability to capture the hairs in different growth phases.
