At My London Skin Clinic, not only do we offer Laser Hair Removal, but we have the latest technology in hair bleaching too – thanks to our highly advanced Q Switch Laser Machine.
The Q-Switch is used to discolour undesired hairs, rather than destroying them.
Result?
Hair becomes thinner over time – making your skin smoother and silkier.
It’s a great way to remove ‘peach fuzz’ ‘baby hairs’ and other stubborn unwanted facial hairs that other lasers can’t remove.
Melanocyte cells are what gives our hair its colour.
Our Q-Switch Laser Machine works as a facial hair bleach – targeting the melanocyte cell in the structure of the hair.
How?
By emitting short pulses of high-energy light that breaks up the melanin within the hair.
Result?
The hair loses its colour and falls out in the coming days.
The laser bleaching of hair will need some upkeep, as new hairs will ultimately grow – replacing the old ones. But treatment can be carried out every 6-8 weeks.
Our experts will create a tailor-made plan to slow down the hair growth and eventually cause the hairs to appear finer.
Hair Bleaching Treatment has immediate effects.
As soon as you have completed your treatment, you will notice that your hair has lost its melanin and is fading.
It is a safe and beneficial procedure to have – even after your laser hair removal sessions.

Although downtime is minimal, you may experience some swelling, redness and a tingly sensation.
Although laser hair bleaching is a safe procedure, patients might experience some redness, crusting or irritation and changes in pigmentation. However, rest assured you’re in safe hands at My London Skin Clinic – our team of experts will give you the best aftercare and advice.
Results will last until the new hairs begin to grow. This is dependent on the patient, so time scales may vary.
No. Some patients have reported a tingling sensation.
No. The hairs will grow back, once the hairs fall out. Therefore repeat treatment is essential.
Laser hair bleaching shows best results for fine hairs around the face – especially hairs
that don’t respond to laser hair removal.
At My London Skin Clinic, we always provide a full consultation 24 hours prior to any procedures, and this includes a patch test.
The consultation ensures suitability for the treatment and time to develop a customised treatment plan.
