Recently Visited for laser hair removal. The process is quick and painless . Absolute outstanding service from booking through to aftercare. Rachael is a breath of fresh air. Looking forward to visiting Heaven Sent Clinics again ❤️
Free consultation and patch test , free first session to follow and great service from the girls when I arrived
I was feeling a bit embarrassed about the Bikini appointment as I have a lot of hyperpigmentation in the area. Katie was nothing but professional and made me feel at ease and talking though what she was doing. She made the session super fun!

How laser hair removal works...
Laser hair removal works by targeting the pigment within the hair follicle. The laser energy is absorbed by the hair, heating the follicle and disrupting its ability to produce new hair - all while keeping the surrounding skin safe
.
Because hair grows in cycles, laser is most effective when the hair is in its active growth phase. This means treatments are carried out over a course, rather than as a one-off, to achieve the best long-term reduction.
In simple terms:
- The laser targets the hair follicle at the root, not the surface hair
- Hair grows in cycles, so only certain hairs respond at each session
- A course of treatments is needed for effective, lasting reduction
Results improve gradually with each session, leaving the hair finer, slower to regrow, and in many cases no longer visible.
Is laser hair removal right for me?
Laser hair removal is highly effective for many people, but suitability depends on a few important factors. This is why every client is assessed before starting treatment.
Skin Tone
Modern laser technology allows us to safely treat a wide range of skin tones. However, settings and treatment plans must be carefully tailored to minimise risk and achieve the best results. This is always assessed during your consultation.
Hair Colour
Laser works by targeting pigment within the hair follicle, so darker hairs respond best. Very light, blonde, grey, or red hairs may not be suitable for laser treatment, and this will be discussed honestly before proceeding.
Hormones & Medications
Hormonal conditions such as PCOS, pregnancy, or certain medications can affect hair growth patterns and results. Laser can still be beneficial in many cases, but expectations and treatment plans may differ and require careful assessment.
Suitability is always assessed before treatment to ensure laser hair removal is safe, appropriate, and likely to deliver the best possible outcome for you.
Free consultation, patch test & first laser session (small areas)
Before starting laser hair removal, every client is invited in for a consultation and patch test. This ensures the treatment is safe, suitable, and correctly tailored to your skin and hair type. Our clinic in Wilmslow attracts laser hair removal clients from across Cheshire including Alderley Edge, Knutsford and Prestbury.
During your consultation, we will:
- Assess your skin tone, hair colour, and hair growth pattern
- Discuss your goals and expected results
- Explain the recommended treatment plan, pricing, and number of sessions likely to be needed
- Answer any questions before you decide how to proceed
- A patch test is carried out to check your skin’s response to the laser.
For small treatment areas, your first full laser hair removal session is included free of charge, allowing you to experience the treatment properly and see how your skin responds before committing to a course.
There is no obligation to continue - the consultation and first session are simply there to ensure laser hair removal is the right option for you.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Laser hair removal offers long-term hair reduction by targeting the hair follicle during its active growth phase. Whilst hormonal changes and individual factors can influence results, most clients experience a significant and lasting reduction in hair growth after completing their recommended course of treatments
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Most clients describe laser hair removal as feeling like a quick flick of an elastic band against the skin. Our medical-grade Lynton EVOLVE laser features advanced cooling technology to keep treatments as comfortable as possible. Sensitivity can vary depending on the treatment area and individual pain tolerance.
How many laser hair removal sessions will I need?
Most clients require a course of 6-12 sessions for optimal results. This is because laser hair removal is most effective when the hair is in its active growth phase, and not all hairs are growing at the same time. During your consultation, we will create a personalised treatment plan based on your skin type, hair type and treatment area.
Why do I need a patch test before laser hair removal?
A patch test is an essential part of safe laser treatment. It allows us to assess your skin’s response to the laser, confirm the correct settings and ensure you are suitable for treatment before proceeding with a larger area.
What areas can be treated with laser hair removal?
We offer laser hair removal for a wide range of areas including underarms, bikini line, Hollywood, legs, arms, back, chest, abdomen, face, upper lip, chin and neck. During your consultation we can discuss the areas you would like treated and recommend the most suitable package.
Can laser hair removal help with PCOS-related hair growth?
Many clients with PCOS choose laser hair removal to help manage unwanted hair growth. Whilst laser hair removal cannot treat the underlying hormonal condition, it can significantly reduce hair growth and improve confidence. A consultation will allow us to discuss your individual circumstances and expected results.
Is laser hair removal safe?
Yes. When performed by trained professionals using medical-grade equipment, laser hair removal is a safe and effective treatment. At Heaven Sent Clinics in Wilmslow, all treatments begin with a thorough consultation and patch test to ensure suitability.
Can darker skin tones have laser hair removal?
In many cases, yes. Our medical-grade laser technology allows us to safely treat a range of skin tones. Suitability will be assessed during your consultation, where we will determine the safest and most effective treatment settings for your skin type.
Can blonde, grey or red hair be treated with laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal works best on darker hair because the laser targets pigment within the follicle. Very light blonde, grey, white and red hairs may not respond as effectively. We will assess your hair colour during your consultation and provide honest advice regarding expected results.
Is laser hair removal better than IPL?
Laser hair removal and IPL are different technologies. Medical-grade laser systems deliver concentrated energy directly to the hair follicle, often producing more predictable and effective results than IPL. At Heaven Sent Clinics, we use the Lynton EVOLVE medical-grade laser system to provide safe and effective treatments.
Can I shave between laser hair removal appointments?
Yes. In fact, shaving is recommended between appointments if required. However, waxing, plucking, threading and epilating should be avoided as these methods remove the hair follicle that the laser needs to target.
How long should I leave between laser hair removal sessions?
Treatment intervals vary depending on the area being treated. Facial areas are often treated every 4-6 weeks, whilst body areas are commonly treated every 6-8 weeks. We will advise you on the ideal schedule for your treatment plan.
What should I avoid before laser hair removal?
Before treatment, we recommend avoiding sun exposure, fake tan and certain hair removal methods such as waxing and plucking. Full pre-treatment instructions will be provided during your consultation and patch test appointment.
What should I expect after laser hair removal?
Following treatment, the skin may appear slightly pink or feel warm, similar to mild sun exposure. This usually settles within a few hours. Over the following days and weeks, treated hairs will gradually shed as the follicles respond to the laser treatment.
