AURAH'S Laser hair reduction is a game-changer for those looking for a long-lasting, low-maintenance way to manage unwanted hair.


If you’re tired of constantly shaving, waxing, or threading, you’re not alone. Unwanted body and facial hair is a common concern for many people—and finding a long-lasting solution can feel like a dream come true. Enter Laser Hair Reduction (LHR)—a safe, effective, and increasingly popular treatment that offers a smoother solution to hair removal.


In this article, we’ll walk you through what laser hair reduction is, how it works, and why it might just be the best option for you.

What is Laser Hair Reduction?


Laser hair reduction is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated beams of light (laser) to target and destroy hair follicles. The pigment (melanin) in the hair absorbs the light, which damages the follicle enough to slow down future hair growth significantly.


We describe this treatment as hair “reduction” rather than “removal” because, while the results are long-lasting and can leave the area virtually hair-free, we can’t promise that every single hair will be gone forever. Most clients experience a dramatic 70-90% decrease in hair growth, with any regrowth typically being finer and lighter, resulting in the appearance and feel of smooth, lasting hair-free skin.



How Does It Work?


The treatment is performed using a handheld laser device that emits a specific wavelength of light. Here's a basic breakdown:


Targeting the Hair Follicle: The laser light is absorbed by the melanin in the hair.


Heating and Disabling: The heat generated damages the hair follicle, inhibiting its ability to regrow hair.


Precision: The laser can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.


Multiple sessions (usually 6–10) are needed because hair grows in different cycles, and the laser is most effective on actively growing hair.

Who is a Good Candidate?


Laser hair reduction is most effective for individuals with light skin and dark hair, as the laser targets the melanin in these individuals. However, newer laser technologies now make it safer and more effective for a broader range of skin tones.


A consultation with one of Aurah's certified professionals can help determine the best treatment plan for your skin type and hair colour.



Post-Treatment Care Tips


To get the most from your treatment:


  • Avoid sun exposure before and after sessions
  • Don’t wax or pluck between sessions
  • Apply sunscreen daily
  • Moisturise and soothe the treated area as advised by your technician
