Diode Laser Hair Removal (Xlase)
Diode Laser (Xlase) is a laser hair removal procedure that uses an intense beam of light to remove unwanted hair on various body parts.
This device is suitable for most skin types, including both dark and light complexions.
Unwanted hair on areas such as the face, underarms, or bikini line can be embarrassing and inconvenient for many individuals. In response to high demand for complete, rapid hair removal, the Diode Laser applicator was developed. This method is considered the most advanced, next-generation in laser hair removal procedures, as an alternative to traditional IPL treatments.
Diode Laser (Xlase) utilises a photo epilation wavelength (808 nm) and is substantially more practical for the entire body. By employing a laser light along the skin’s surface, Laser Hair Removal targets your hair follicles, causing deliberate damage at the base. In turn, this damage inhibits or completely disables the follicle’s ability to produce new hair as rapidly as before.
A series of treatments are typically needed to eliminate the majority of unwanted hair permanently and achieve long-lasting results. Following each treatment, there will be a notable reduction in the number of hairs growing in the specific area, until the hair eventually stops growing altogether.
The Diode Laser treatment is considered a must-have for those wishing to achieve the ultimate hairless body. With regular maintenance treatments recommended to ensure a more permanent outcome, you can achieve smooth silky-to-the-touch skin.
The benefits of having this treatment can include the following:
- — Safe and efficient
- — The best overall laser for all skin types based upon long-term use and safety
- — Incredibly efficient and safe for people with Fitzpatrick skin types II to V
- — Faster recovery, fewer side effects
- — Suitable on large areas of the body

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Diode laser hair removal painful?
Our Diode hair removal laser is virtually pain-free; however, you may feel a slight stinging sensation at the start of the treatment; this shows that the laser has been activated. This sensation will then be followed by a series of impulses that may cause a very slight burning sensation and some prickling or tingling. The feeling has been described as being similar to that of an elastic band snapping against the skin.
Do laser hair removal procedures cause scarring?
Any laser-based hair removal procedure can create a risk of scarring; this potential reaction is included in the consent forms you will need to sign before laser treatment can be performed. You can be assured that the risk of scarring from this method is highly unlikely, but may depend on the following:
- The laser technician’s skill, experience, training and knowledge
- Your body’s natural ability to heal
- The amount of pigmentation (melanin) in the skin, darker-skinned exhibit a higher risk
It must be stressed that the risk of scarring from laser treatment is minimal, and you can further reduce this likelihood by only working with an experienced laser technician. Additionally, the procedure can be supervised by an on-site physician.
Can laser hair removal procedures cause pigment changes?
A few individuals have observed some pigment changes after a laser treatment procedure that can either be a darkening or lightening of the skin. This pigmentation change is not to be confused with scarring as most of the time. Happily, such changes that happen after laser procedures typically are resolved within a few weeks or months.
