At Iconic Beauty, we are experts in providing laser hair removal using Diode Laser hair removal technology. This treatment offers ultra fast laser hair removal with integrated ‘Crystal Freeze’ cooling technology. We were one of the first clinics in Ireland to use this type of technology.
This treatment offers many advantages over existing laser and IPL systems for removing unwanted hair. Due to its high power and speed it is more effective and faster than other systems. In addition there is a built in sophisticated contact skin cooling technology to allow pain free treatment for all skin types. So no more shaving waxing or electrolysis! You can achieve permanent hair removal at the speed of light without any pain. As a result of the treatment time being shorter our prices are more competitive ensuring best value as well as best results.
We offer a free consultation to all new clients to answer all your questions and ensure you are suitable for treatment.
How does laser hair removal work?
Using a specific wavelength of light that is selectively absorbed by the melanin surrounding the hair follicle, the laser is applied to the skin and the heat is conducted down to the base of the follicle and coagulates or cuts of the blood flow to the follicle. At the same time the ‘cool freeze’ technology cools the skin to protect and avoid any damage to the surrounding skin. The hair will be destroyed and removed permanently and over the next week will fall out leaving the skin hair free and smooth.
Laser hair removal works by means of selective photothermolysis which is based on the selective destruction of the hair follicle, protecting, as much as possible, the surrounding structures: the epidermis and the dermis.

How many treatments are required?
The visible hair will be removed with each treatment. A course of treatments is required as laser hair removal is effective on hairs in the growing stage or visible on the skin. At any one time only 70% of hairs in the skin are dormant and not visible on the surface. Therefore for maximum clearance additional treatments are required for each phase of hair growth.
This high power and pain free treatment requires less treatments than older IPL or lasers which in some cases required 8-15 treatments. For most people we can achieve maximum clearance in just 6 sessions saving you time and money.
Treatments are scheduled 6-8 weeks apart as you wait for the next phase of hair growth to appear on the surface. You will be hair free in between treatments.
How does treatment feel?
Most clients find the treatment comfortable as the laser system incorporates advanced integrated cooling. It’s patented ‘cool freeze’ skin cooling technology keeps the skin at a cool temperature throughout treatment protecting the skin and ensuring a painless treatment . It also has a dynamic mode that is completely painless and can even be used on tanned skin.
Who is suitable for treatment?
This laser treatment can treat all skin types effectively and safely including dark skin types and even tanned skin. We treat both men and women who wish to remove unwanted hair permanently. During your consultation we will ask you to complete a full health questionnaire to identify any contraindications. If you suffer from Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) we can treat effectively but you will require ongoing maintenance treatment.
