How much is laser hair removal in Bridgwater?

Every course starts with a free 30-minute Patch test & Consultation for hair removal. Single sessions are £40 for chin, £60 for lip and chin, £50 for underarms, £65 for bikini, £80 for half leg and £140 for full leg. Courses of 6 are available for several areas: lip at £200, female chin at £200, underarms at £250, half leg at £400 and full leg at £700. Most sessions take between 25 minutes and 1 hour depending on the area. Hair removal usually needs a course of sessions because hair grows in cycles, and the number you need will depend on your hair, your skin and the area being treated. Your therapist will talk this through at your consultation.

How does SHR and IPL hair removal work?

SHR (Super Hair Removal) and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) use light energy to target the hair follicle and reduce regrowth over time. The Bright Smiles treatment description explains that SHR offers fast sessions, while IPL gives precise targeting for finer or lighter hairs. A consultation and patch test are included so the treatment can be tailored to your hair and skin type. It is described as suitable for most skin types and areas of the body, but not everyone is suitable, and results vary from person to person. Before treatment you will usually be asked to shave the area and avoid sun exposure, fake tan, waxing and plucking. Your therapist will give you full guidance.

How much is laser tattoo removal in Bridgwater?

Tattoo removal starts with a Patch Test & Consultation for £10, which takes 30 minutes. Treatment prices depend on size. An X Small Area, up to 2x2cm, is £20 per session. A Small Area, up to 5x5cm, is £35 per session or £105 for a course of 4. A Medium Area, up to 10x10cm, is £65 per session or £195 for a course of 4. The laser breaks down ink beneath the skin so the body can clear it gradually over time. Multiple sessions are usually needed, and the number depends on the ink colour, depth and age of the tattoo. Some tattoos fade rather than disappear completely, and your therapist will explain what to expect at your consultation.

Do you treat thread veins and fungal nails in Bridgwater?

Yes. Thread Veins on a small area are £50 for 40 minutes. This non-invasive treatment uses targeted light to reduce the appearance of small, superficial red, blue or purple veins on the face or body, usually over a course of treatments, and a consultation is included to create a plan for your skin. Fungal Nail Laser Treatment is from £40 per nail for 30 minutes, with a free Patch Test & Consultation first. It is suitable for fingernails and toenails, and a series of treatments is usually needed depending on severity. If you have diabetes, circulation problems or any other health condition, mention it at your consultation so your therapist can check the treatment is right for you.
