Laser Hair Removal in Chorley & Horwich – Your Complete Guide

If you’re tired of shaving, waxing, or dealing with painful ingrown hairs, laser hair removal offers a long-term solution for smoother, clearer skin.

At Pulsar Laser Studio, we provide advanced laser hair removal in Chorley and Horwich, helping clients across Lancashire achieve long-lasting hair reduction safely and comfortably.

This guide explains how laser hair removal works, what results you can expect, and why it has become one of the most popular aesthetic treatments in the UK.

What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses concentrated light energy to reduce unwanted hair growth.

The laser targets the pigment within the hair follicle, gently heating and disabling it to prevent regrowth — without harming the surrounding skin.

Unlike shaving or waxing, which only remove hair temporarily, laser hair removal works beneath the skin’s surface to provide long-term hair reduction.

At Pulsar Laser Studio, treatments are performed using advanced medical-grade laser technology suitable for a wide range of skin types and hair colours.
You can learn more about our technology and treatment options on our dedicated Laser Hair Removal page.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

Laser energy is absorbed by melanin (pigment) in the hair.

This heat travels down the hair shaft and damages the follicle, slowing and eventually preventing future hair growth.

Because hair grows in cycles, laser hair removal is most effective during the active growth phase (anagen).

For best results:

  • Most clients require 6–8 sessions

  • Treatments are spaced 4–8 weeks apart

  • Hair becomes finer, lighter, and slower to return with each session

Many clients experience up to 80–90% permanent hair reduction following a full course.

Laser technology is also used at Pulsar Laser Studio for advanced pigment-based treatments such as laser tattoo removal and laser carbon facials, using similar principles of targeted light energy.

Areas We Treat

Laser hair removal can be safely performed on most areas of the body, including:

  • Legs

  • Underarms

  • Bikini line

  • Face

  • Arms

  • Back & chest

  • Beard shaping

Both men and women benefit from laser hair removal for comfort, hygiene, and confidence.

Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

 Long-lasting hair reduction
 Smoother skin
 Fewer ingrown hairs
 Reduced irritation
 No stubble
 Time-saving
 Suitable for sensitive skin

Modern laser systems include advanced cooling technology, making treatments far more comfortable than older laser devices.

Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?

Most clients describe the sensation as a quick warm flick or light snap against the skin.

It is significantly more comfortable than waxing, and discomfort reduces as hair becomes finer with each session.

Our laser technology includes integrated cooling for maximum comfort throughout treatment.

Preparing for Your Appointment

Before your laser hair removal session:

  • Avoid sun exposure or tanning for 2 weeks

  • Do not wax, pluck, or epilate

  • Shave the area 24 hours before treatment

  • Avoid fake tan and active skincare products

A full consultation is carried out before your first session to assess skin type, hair type, and suitability.

Aftercare Advice

Following treatment:

  • Avoid heat and exercise for 24–48 hours

  • Apply SPF 30–50 when exposed to sunlight

  • Avoid exfoliation for 5–7 days

  • Keep the area moisturised

Hair will shed naturally over the following weeks — this is a normal and expected part of the process.

How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?

Prices vary depending on:

  • Treatment area

  • Hair density

  • Number of sessions required

Although laser hair removal is an investment, it often saves money long-term compared to years of waxing and shaving.

We offer competitive pricing and regular offers at Pulsar Laser Studio, alongside advanced skin treatments such as our M3 Matrix skin rejuvenation treatments for clients looking to improve skin tone, texture, and firmness alongside hair removal.
