Here at Velour Laser, we are dedicated to using only the safest equipment to perform Laser Hair Removal and Micro-Needling. All of our tools are medical-grade and meet the requirements set out by Health Canada.
Our team is also highly skilled with medical background education. We take the health of your skin seriously and use methods to help you reach your beauty goals!
Many tools are sold without proper inspection and regulation so you are placing your health at risk by attempting these procedures at home.
By combining our expertise with regulated equipment, we can provide safe treatments that produce minimal side effects and amazing results!
Results vary from client to client but it takes an average of 6-9 treatments to notice a significant difference - which is usually around 70-95% total reduction in hair growth.
Typically, we allow between 4-10 weeks between sessions but that all depends on what area is being treated and the amount of hair growth left.
The only types of hair that laser removal will not work on are vellus hair (the short, fine, slightly colored, and barely noticeable hair on your body) and grey hair. The laser treatment works best on dark, coarse hair but will work on all hair with pigmentation.
Yes! Laser hair removal works on all skin types.
You have to be 18 years old but you can start at 16 with a parent or guardian’s consent.
Yes, but this varies between clients. New follicles can always develop due to hormonal changes or shifts in weight. However, touch-ups can be done every year or so.
You may feel a slight pinch or gentle heat depending on the thickness of your hair but, overall, the newest technologies in hair removal are virtually painless!
Following treatment, you may experience mild swelling and redness similar to a mild sunburn as well as minimal bruising. These after-effects last around 24-48 hours.
There is minimal pain that may be experienced during the treatment. However, you can have numbing cream applied to the area beforehand to minimize any pain.
Yes! Micro-needling is safe and effective on all skin types and colors.
Micro-needling can be repeated every 4-6 weeks until you see results but the number of treatments required depends on how your skin responds to the treatment. However, you will notice some improvement following your first appointment!
Our equipment ensures that the micro-injuries caused to your skin close within an hour so post-treatment infections are extremely rare.
If you are experiencing swelling following your treatment, you can wet a soft washcloth with cool (not cold) water and place it on your skin for a few minutes at a time.
If you use a prescription cream it is best to discuss this with your doctor prior to treatment. They will advise you if it is safe to continue using it following laser hair removal.
Following treatment, you may notice redness or discoloration. These are common but temporary, only lasting for 1-3 days.
During your private 30-minute consultation, one of our aestheticians will address your individual skin needs and concerns. We can then advise you on appropriate treatment options as well as the expected results of each treatment method.
We require at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule your appointment. While we understand that last-minute cancellations do happen, clients who have more than one last-minute cancellation will be required to pay a $25 cancellation fee before re-booking any future appointments. For any no-shows, we apply a $50 charge and require full payment to re-book a service.
