Laser treatments are designed to permanently eliminate the pigmentation on your face. Please be aware that are you have received treatment; you may then experience more sun damage, which can then result in more pigmentation. For this reason, it is crucial that you always use sunscreen and care for your skin well.
This depends on a case-by-case basis. In general, a minimum of 2-3 sessions to achieve maximum results is recommended, and your initial appointment will cover this.
4-6 weeks is the usual wait between laser therapy treatments. This downtime enables your skin to recover between sessions.
While everyone’s tolerance varies, the majority of patients report only mild discomfort and that the Picoway laser is a painless experience. Our team will be mindful of your maximising your comfort throughout your treatment. The sensation is similar to a rubber band snapping on the skin. If you’re very sensitive in general, a topical numbing cream is available.
To address a specific skin condition such as hyperpigmentation or acne scars, a series of treatments is needed. The number of treatments will always depend on your skin’s condition, but the bulk of patients have approximately 3-4 treatments.
Some patients experience short-term effects such as redness for about 24 hours. Pigmented areas may also appear darker or lighter for the first week, but then return to your normal pigmentation colour. Darker spots peeling or flaking off the treatment site is a normal part of the process.
Did you know iron infusions can lead to skin staining? Skin discolouration is a rare side effect of intravenous iron infusions and develops at a rate of roughly 1.6%
Iron insufficiency can also cause melasma–a chronic gained localized hyper melanosis. This is a serious aesthetic obstacle for women. Evidence indicates that iron and b12 deficiencies will lead to hyperpigmentation
I’m so grateful I found such an awesome team of beauty therapists. I had the privilege of Shelley completing my eyeliner tattoos (upper & lower lids) followed by Kiera fixing my brows & plasma session. I love looking at myself, looking so fresh & eyeliner perfect - no more panda eyes for me!! Thank you ladies for being so talented!!

AMAZING! I wish I had done sooner, years ago! Shelley is outstanding her skill, perfection and ability to colour match is out of this world. I had my brows combo and lips tattooed and really couldn’t be happier. The whole experience has been amazing, fun and painless.

I did my cosmetic brow tattooing training with Shelley and I am SO glad I picked her! I had completed training last year with another company and the difference was unbeatable. I was able to book clients in within a week after completing and I felt really confident in my training and my clients love my work already. Shelley doesn’t just treat you like a number, you feel like she really cares and the ongoing support has been really helpful. I would tell anyone and everyone that this is the training you want! Thank you Shelley, you’re the best!
