We use the SMARTDiode machine, which is effective, fast and virtually PAIN FREE! The machine is certified, medical-grade and MHRA registered. It has 66% more power than proprietary systems.
How does SmartDiode work?
Utilising the latest evolution in Laser SMARTDiode technologies – SMARTDiode is the latest method for the removal of unwanted
hair, superfast, safe and pain free! A SMARTDiode treatment uses selected wavelengths of low energy light rapidly pulsed onto the skin (180 times a minute) to gently heat the target hair follicles to cause terminal damage directly to the hair’s chromophores and prevent hair regrowth. Endorsed by leading medical experts the SMARTDiode is safe and highly effective in the treatment of permanent hair reduction.
How does SmartDiode work?
Using revolutionary ‘slide & glide’ delivery a SMARTDiode treatment is completed in minutes. The treatment applicator is swept back and forth repeatedly across the designated area whist rapid pulses of low energy light are pulsed into the skin ensuring full coverage and effective treatment.
Micro Area (such as top lip, chin or cheek)
Small Area (such as bikini, underarms or half face)
Medium Area (such as Brazilian / Hollywood, arms, half legs or full face)
Large Area (such as full legs, back, chest and abs,)
Does it hurt?
Unlike traditional laser or IPL, using high energy levels that may cause discomfort and pain, a SMARTDiode treatment is gentle and comfortable, resulting in a pleasant warming of the skin. Active skin cooling through the applicator ensures complete comfort even in the most sensitive area.
Who is it suitable for?
A SMARTDiode treatment can be performed on all skin types. The SMARTDiode technology of low energy pulses allows for the
successful treatment in both dark and fair skin types alike, even tanned skin. Suitable for both women and men, SMARTDiode is the answer. There are some circumstances and medical conditions in which Laser Hair Removal may prove to be unsuitable. These conditions include, but are not limited to:

What is the aftercare advice?
The aftercare advice for Laser Hair Removal with a SMARTDiode machine is as follows:
- In the unlikely event you experience any redness or swelling after your treatment, apply a soothing lotion such as aloe vera or cool pack at home if required.
- We advise that you do not shave or apply deodorants /perfumes to the treated area for 24-48 hours post treatment.
- We advise that you avoid very hots baths, saunas, hot tubs/jacuzzi, massage treatments or athletic activities for 2-3 days after treatment.
- Your skin may have increased sensitivity to the sun and we recommend that you use a factor 30+ sunscreen and avoid direct sun exposure on the treated area and sunbeds for at least 4 days after your treatment.
- If you experience (rarely) itching in the treated area, avoid scratching the skin. You can take an antihistamine e.g. Piriton to alleviate the irritation.
- We advise not using any skincare that contains AHA, Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid or Rertinoic Acid (e.g. Retin A) for 3-5 days following treatment.
- We recommend that you always maintain a good skincare routine with frequent hydration or moisturisation on a daily basis.
