If you’ve been considering laser hair removal and you live in Milton Keynes, Newport Pagnell or anywhere nearby, this guide is your new best friend. I’m lifting the lid on everything you’ve ever wanted to know: prices, pain levels, how many sessions you need, what results look like, and what actually happens during your appointment.


Whether you’re sick of shaving, done with waxing, or simply want smoother, softer skin with less effort - laser hair removal is one of the best decisions you’ll ever make for your body (and your bathroom shelf).


Let’s get into it. Your smooth-skin era starts here!

What Is Laser Hair Removal? (Explained Simply)


Laser hair removal uses pulses of concentrated light to target your hair follicles. The laser heats and disables them, which reduces hair growth long-term and leaves skin smoother over time. It's fast, safe, and suitable for most skin types when done with professional, medical-grade equipment (like me!).


At MC Laser & Beauty, I use advanced technology designed to:

  • Target hair follicles without damaging skin

  • Treat even stubborn, coarse hair

  • Work safely across different skin tones

  • Give long-lasting, confident results

Think of it as the glow-up your razor could never compete with.


Is Laser Hair Removal Right for You?


If you want:

  • Less time shaving

  • Fewer ingrown hairs

  • Long-term reduction in hair growth

  • Smoother skin

  • A confidence boost

  • A low-maintenance lifestyle


Then yes , you’re exactly the kind of client laser hair removal was made for.


Most people are suitable, and during your consultation and patch test, I assess your skin type, hair colour, and medical history to make sure we’re a perfect match.





Laser Hair Removal in Milton Keynes: What Areas Can Be Treated?


Pretty much the entire body - with the exception of the eyebrow area.


The most popular areas include:

  • Underarms

  • Legs (full or half)

  • Hollywood / Brazilian / Bikini

  • Face (chin, upper lip, sides of face)

  • Back

  • Chest

  • Arms

  • Stomach


If there’s hair, I can treat it safely.


How Many Sessions Do You Really Need?


Laser works in the "anagen" phase - the active hair-growth stage - which is why you need multiple sessions.


On average, clients need 6–10 sessions for the best long-term results.

Different areas respond differently:

  • Face → faster regrowth, so more sessions

  • Underarms → one of the quickest to respond

  • Hollywood / Bikini → usually 6–8 sessions

  • Legs → excellent results in fewer sessions

  • Men’s back & chest → often require more due to hair density


Consistency is everything. Come regularly, and results come faster.


Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?


In short: Less than waxing. More than shaving. Totally manageable.


Modern lasers are designed to keep skin cool and comfortable, and most of my clients describe it as:

  • A warm ping

  • A tiny, quick snap

  • A slight heat sensation

  • A little bit prickly, a bit like pins and needles...


Some areas are more sensitive, but treatment times are fast and underarms take as little as 10 minutes.


I always work at your pace and use cooling technology throughout.


How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost in Milton Keynes?


Prices vary depending on the area and type of clinic.


At MC Laser & Beauty, my pricing is honest, competitive, and reflective of the advanced technology I use. Many clients choose packages for the best savings - and results.

What Results Should You Expect?


Here’s the exciting part.


Most clients see visible changes within the first 1–3 sessions:

  • Hair grows back softer

  • Hair becomes patchy

  • Some areas don’t grow back at all

  • Skin looks smoother and healthier

  • Fewer ingrown hairs

  • Reduced irritation


By session 6–8, results are often transformative.

Frequently Asked Questions


How soon will I see results?

Most clients in Milton Keynes start seeing visible changes after 1–3 sessions, with hair growing back finer, softer and in smaller patches. The biggest results usually appear between session 6–8, depending on the treatment area and your individual hair cycle. Consistency is key, attending your sessions every 4–6 weeks ensures maximum reduction.

Can I shave between my laser hair removal sessions?

Yes - shaving is actually recommended between sessions. It keeps the skin smooth without disturbing the hair follicle beneath the surface (which the laser needs to target). Avoid waxing, threading or plucking as they remove the root and will delay your results.

Can I have laser hair removal if I'm tanned?

No - you need to wait until a tan (real or fake) has faded before treatment. Laser works best when there is a clear contrast between the skin and hair root, and tanning increases sensitivity and risks. For safe, effective laser results, avoid sunbeds, direct sun exposure and fake tan for at least 2 weeks before your appointment.

Is laser hair removal permanent?

Laser hair removal offers long-term and often permanent reduction, but results vary depending on hormones, genetics and the area being treated. Most clients enjoy smooth skin with minimal regrowth after completing their recommended sessions, with the occasional maintenance treatment once or twice a year if needed.

Do you offer laser hair removal packages?

Yes - MC Laser & Beauty offers package options designed to save you money while delivering the best long-term results. Because most clients need a course of treatments, packages are the most cost-effective way to complete your journey. Packages are available for all popular areas including Hollywood, underarms, face, legs and combination bundles. You can view my pricelist here.

Is laser hair removal safe for all skin types?

Laser hair removal is safe for most skin types when performed with the correct technology and by a qualified specialist. At MC Laser & Beauty in Milton Keynes, I use advanced laser equipment designed to safely treat a wide range of skin tones. During your consultation, I assess your skin and hair type to make sure laser is suitable and tailor your settings for the safest, most effective results.

What laser machine do you use at MC Laser & Beauty?

I use a professional, medical-grade laser that delivers fast, consistent results with built-in cooling for comfort and safety. This technology is designed to target hair at the root while protecting the surrounding skin, making it ideal for popular areas like Hollywood, underarms, face and legs. Using high-quality equipment ensures smoother results in fewer sessions.

Does laser hair removal work on blonde, fine or grey hair?

Laser works best on dark hair because the pigment absorbs the light. Blonde, red, grey or very fine hair contains less pigment, so results may vary. During your consultation, I’ll assess your hair type and give you honest advice about what results you can expect. If your hair isn’t suitable for laser, I’ll guide you to alternative treatments that work better for you.

How do I prepare for my first laser hair removal appointment?

For the best and safest results, follow these steps before your first session:

  • Shave the area 24 hours before treatment

  • Arrive with clean, product-free skin

  • Avoid fake tan for 2 weeks

  • Avoid sunbeds and direct sun exposure

  • Do not wax, pluck or thread

  • Let me know about any medication changes


This prep ensures your skin is ready and the laser can target the hair effectively.

Is laser hair removal worth it compared to waxing?

Yes - for most clients, laser hair removal becomes a more cost-effective and convenient option than waxing. Waxing lasts a few weeks, can irritate the skin and requires regular maintenance. Laser offers long-term reduction, smoother skin, fewer ingrown hairs and less regrowth over time. Many clients in Milton Keynes switch to laser because it saves time, money and gives far more lasting results.
