What Is Cryo Laser Hair Removal?
Cryo Laser is a term used for some laser hair-removal systems that incorporate cooling technology. The precise technology and features depend on the machine being used.
Laser hair removal works by directing light energy towards the pigment in the hair. The energy is absorbed by the hair and converted into heat, which targets structures involved in hair growth. The aim is to achieve long-term hair reduction over a series of treatments.
Cooling technology, where incorporated into a laser system, is intended to help manage heat at the skin's surface and improve treatment comfort. The level of cooling and the way it works will depend on the particular device.
At The Lanes Health & Beauty, we want clients to feel informed before beginning a course of treatment. During your consultation, we can discuss your goals, the area you would like to treat, your suitability and the recommended treatment plan.

Why Consider Laser Hair Removal?
Many people choose laser hair removal because they want a longer-term alternative to frequent shaving or waxing.
Potential benefits of a suitable laser hair-reduction programme include:
Long-term hair reduction: A course of treatments can help reduce the amount of unwanted hair over time.
Less frequent shaving: As hair growth reduces, you may find you need to shave less often.
A smoother-feeling finish: Reducing unwanted hair may help you achieve the skin feel you prefer.
Treatment for different areas: Depending on suitability and the services offered, laser hair removal can be used on a range of facial and body areas.
A personalised approach: Treatment settings and scheduling should be selected according to the individual, the device and the area being treated.
Results vary from person to person. Laser hair removal does not guarantee permanent removal of every hair, and maintenance treatments may be needed.
Cryo Laser Hair Removal in Brighton's Lanes
The Lanes are at the heart of Brighton, making The Lanes Health & Beauty a convenient location to explore professional beauty and hair-removal treatments.
Based at 5 Market Street, Brighton, our salon welcomes clients looking for beauty treatments in a central Brighton location.
If you live in Brighton, work in the city centre or are visiting the area, you can enquire about laser hair removal and discuss the options available for your needs.
When choosing a treatment, it is important to consider more than the name of the technology. Your skin tone, hair colour, hair thickness, medical history and recent sun exposure can all influence whether laser hair removal is appropriate and how your treatment should be planned.
We recommend discussing these factors with a qualified practitioner before starting a course.
Which Areas Can Laser Hair Removal Treat?
Laser hair removal may be suitable for a number of facial and body areas. The areas available at our salon depend on our treatment menu and the equipment used.
Common areas people ask about include:
Facial hair removal
Some clients explore laser hair removal for areas such as the upper lip, chin and sides of the face. Facial treatments require careful assessment, particularly where hormonal changes may influence hair growth.
Underarms
Underarm hair removal is a popular option for people who want to reduce the need for frequent shaving.
Legs
Depending on the service offered, treatment may be available for smaller sections of the legs or larger areas.
Bikini area
Some clients consider laser hair reduction around the bikini line. The exact area treated should be agreed with the practitioner before the appointment.
Arms and other body areas
Laser hair removal may also be appropriate for selected areas of the arms, chest, back or other parts of the body, subject to suitability and the salon's available treatments.
Please check our current treatment menu or contact us to confirm which areas we offer and the prices for each area.
How Many Cryo Laser Treatments Will I Need?
Laser hair removal usually requires a course of treatments rather than a single appointment.
Hair grows in different stages, and laser treatment is generally most effective on hairs during particular stages of the growth cycle. Because not all hairs are in the same stage at the same time, repeat appointments are normally needed.
The number of sessions you may need depends on factors such as:
The area being treated.
Your natural hair colour and thickness.
Your skin tone and individual suitability.
Your hair-growth pattern and hormonal influences.
The laser system being used and the settings selected.
How your hair responds to previous sessions.
Your practitioner can discuss an appropriate schedule based on the device's instructions and your individual needs. Some people may also require occasional maintenance sessions after completing their initial course.
It is important to follow the recommended appointment intervals rather than expecting every hair to be treated in one session.
What Happens During a Laser Hair Removal Appointment?
If you are new to laser hair removal, knowing what to expect can help you feel more comfortable.
1. Consultation and suitability assessment
Before treatment, your practitioner should discuss your treatment goals, medical history, skin and hair characteristics, medications, recent sun exposure and any other relevant factors.
This is also an opportunity to ask questions about the Cryo Laser system, the expected results, possible side effects and the recommended number of sessions.
2. Preparing the treatment area
You will receive instructions on how to prepare the area before your appointment. This may include shaving in advance and avoiding waxing or plucking, as these methods remove the hair that the laser is intended to target.
Follow the specific instructions provided by your practitioner.
3. The treatment
The practitioner will prepare the skin and use the appropriate equipment and protective measures. The laser is applied to the agreed treatment area according to the device's instructions and your individual treatment settings.
Sensation varies. Some people describe laser hair removal as a brief snapping or warm sensation. Cooling features may help manage discomfort where the system incorporates them, but treatment comfort cannot be guaranteed.
4. Aftercare advice
Once the treatment is complete, you will be given aftercare guidance. Your skin may be temporarily red, warm or sensitive, and you should follow the advice provided for your particular treatment.
5. Your next appointment
Your next session will be scheduled according to your treatment plan and the recommended interval for the equipment being used. Keeping to the suggested schedule can help support a consistent course of treatment.
How to Prepare for Cryo Laser Hair Removal
Good preparation helps your practitioner assess your skin and carry out treatment appropriately.
Before your appointment:
Avoid tanning: Tell your practitioner about recent sun exposure, sunbeds or fake tan, and follow the advice given before treatment.
Follow shaving instructions: You may be asked to shave the area before your session.
Avoid waxing and plucking: These remove the hair from the follicle and can interfere with laser hair-removal treatment.
Discuss medication: Tell your practitioner about prescribed medication, over-the-counter products and skincare ingredients that may affect your skin's sensitivity.
Mention skin changes: Let your practitioner know about irritation, broken skin, active skin conditions or any changes in your health.
Arrive with clean skin: Follow instructions about deodorant, creams, oils and makeup on the treatment area.
Ask questions beforehand: If you are unsure whether laser treatment is suitable for you, raise your concerns before the appointment.
Your practitioner may recommend postponing treatment if your skin or circumstances make it unsuitable on the day.
Laser Hair Removal Aftercare
Aftercare is an important part of your treatment. Your practitioner will provide instructions based on the device, the area treated and your skin's response.
General aftercare guidance may include:
Avoiding unnecessary heat, such as very hot showers, saunas or strenuous activities that make the treated area excessively warm, for the period advised.
Avoiding friction, harsh exfoliation and irritating skincare products on the treated area until the skin has settled.
Protecting exposed skin from the sun and using appropriate broad-spectrum sun protection.
Avoiding tanning and following the recommended guidance before your next session.
Keeping the area clean and treating the skin gently.
Contacting your practitioner if you are concerned about an unexpected reaction.
Temporary redness or swelling can occur after laser hair removal. Blistering, burns, pigment changes and other complications are also possible, which is why proper assessment, trained treatment and suitable equipment settings are important.
Seek medical advice if you develop severe pain, blistering, signs of infection or a reaction that concerns you.
Is Cryo Laser Hair Removal Suitable for Everyone?
Laser hair removal is not suitable for everyone, and the right approach depends on your individual circumstances and the system being used.
The treatment's effectiveness can vary according to hair pigment, hair thickness, skin tone and the stage of hair growth. Some lasers can treat a broader range of skin tones than others, so the specific equipment and its approved treatment parameters matter.
You should tell your practitioner if you:
Have recently tanned or experienced significant sun exposure.
Take medication that may increase light sensitivity.
Have a skin condition, irritation or a recent skin injury in the treatment area.
Are pregnant or have other health circumstances that could affect treatment suitability.
Have a history of unusual scarring or pigmentation changes.
Have tattoos, permanent makeup or pigmented lesions within or near the proposed treatment area.
Your practitioner will assess whether treatment is appropriate and may recommend an alternative or advise waiting. Do not assume that a cooling feature makes a laser treatment suitable for every skin type.
Cryo Laser vs Shaving and Waxing
Shaving, waxing and laser hair removal work in different ways.
Shaving cuts hair at the surface of the skin. It is convenient for many people but needs regular maintenance as the hair grows back.
Waxing removes hair from the root, but the results are temporary and repeat appointments are generally needed.
Laser hair removal targets hair follicles to achieve longer-term hair reduction over a course of sessions. It requires an initial commitment and may need maintenance treatments. It is not guaranteed to remove all hair permanently.
The best option depends on your preferences, skin, hair and budget. A consultation can help you decide whether laser hair reduction is the right choice for you.
Frequently Asked Questions About Cryo Laser Brighton
Where can I find Cryo Laser hair removal in Brighton?
The Lanes Health & Beauty is located at 5 Market Street in Brighton's historic Lanes. You can contact the salon to enquire about available laser hair-removal treatments, suitability and appointment options.
What is Cryo Laser?
Cryo Laser is a term associated with some laser systems that incorporate cooling technology. The precise features depend on the machine. Ask your practitioner which system is used and how its cooling technology works.
Does Cryo Laser hair removal hurt?
Sensation varies from person to person and between treatment areas. You may feel warmth, tingling or a brief snapping sensation. Cooling technology may help with comfort on systems that use it, but it does not eliminate all discomfort.
How long does it take to see results?
Hair reduction develops over a course of sessions rather than usually being achieved in one appointment. The timing and degree of improvement depend on the area treated, hair characteristics, the equipment and your individual response.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Laser hair removal is generally described as long-term hair reduction rather than a guarantee of permanent removal. Some hairs may remain or regrow, and maintenance sessions may be needed.
Can all hair colours be treated?
Not all hair colours respond equally to laser hair removal. Darker hair often responds better because the treatment targets pigment in the hair. Very light, grey, white or some red hairs may respond poorly, depending on the technology used.
Can laser hair removal be performed on every skin tone?
Suitability depends on the laser system, its approved settings and an individual's skin characteristics. A practitioner should assess your skin and explain the options before treatment.
Do I need to shave before my appointment?
You may be asked to shave the area beforehand, but you should follow the salon's specific instructions. Waxing and plucking are generally avoided during a laser hair-removal course because they remove the hair from the follicle.
