Skin Concern

Unwanted Hair & Shaving Bumps

Ingrown hairs are small irritated bumps that appear after shaving, when strands curl back and grow into the skin — causing irritation, pimples and scarring. Coarse, curved hair on deeply pigmented skin needs a device and technique chosen for that skin. We patch test before every course.

What you may notice

  • Dense or coarse hair growth
  • Ingrown hairs
  • Razor bumps
  • Post-shaving darkening
  • Scarring in shaved areas

Common causes

  • Curly hair trapped inside the follicle
  • Genetics
  • Hormonal conditions such as PCOS
  • Shaving and waxing irritation

Our approach

  1. 01Screen for hormonal causes where relevant
  2. 02Patch test to confirm safe settings
  3. 03Course of laser sessions every 4–8 weeks
  4. 04Maintenance once or twice a year

Typical timeline · Visible reduction from session three; 6–8 sessions for a full course.
