Laser Hair Removal for Skin Type I - II
At Rejuvence Clinic, we offer doctor-led, medical-grade laser hair removal using two advanced systems: the Aerolase Neo Elite and BBL Sciton. The Neo Elite is a highly safe 1064 nm laser that delivers fast, near-painless treatments on all skin types, including darker skin, thanks to its ultra-short 650-microsecond pulse that protects surrounding tissue.
For lighter skin types (Fitzpatrick I & II), we also use the BBL Sciton Forever Bare protocol. BBL provides quick, comfortable and even heating across the treatment area, making it ideal for fairer complexions. While both devices can be used, we typically prioritise BBL for these skin types due to its speed and comfort.
Suitable for both men and women seeking safe, effective and long-lasting hair reduction.
Laser Hair Removal for Skin Type I - II
At Rejuvence Clinic we provide medically supported laser hair removal services with the Aerolase Neo Elite. This laser combines alexandrite 755 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm wavelength lasers in a 650-microsecond pulse offering excellent hair reduction on all areas of the body in all types of skin. In contrast to other Nd:YAG lasers, the Neo Elite’s extremely short pulse duration means despite higher energy delivery there is no damage to the surrounding skin and soft tissues alongside a near painless experience without the need for cooling. Most importantly it is safe in skin of colour.
Perfect for both women & men!
What is my skin type?
In 1975 scientists developed a system of classifying skin according to how easily it burns in the Sun. This was specifically developed in order to classify the risks of developing skin cancer. The classification system is now known as the FitzPatrick skin type scale. The FitzPatrick skin type classification consists of six skin types.
What is Skin Type I and II?
People with skin type I and II tend to have very pale white skin and usually from Northern Europe. Those with skin types I and II also typically have green or blue eyes and fair or red hair. Skin can burn quite easily in the sun without tanning or very minimal tanning. Those with skin type I often have freckles.

Can I get laser hair removal if I have very light skin?
Yes—laser hair removal is highly effective for very light skin, and at Rejuvence Clinic we prioritise the BBL Sciton Forever Bare system for this skin type. BBL uses broad-band light to gently and evenly heat the hair follicle, making it an excellent choice for fair skin (Fitzpatrick I & II), where energy can be delivered efficiently and comfortably. Treatments are fast, smooth and well tolerated, with most patients describing only a warm, light flicking sensation.
Although BBL is usually our first choice for lighter skin, we also have the Aerolase Neo Elite, which remains a safe and reliable option when needed. Its gentle 650-microsecond pulse targets the follicle with precision while protecting the surrounding skin, ensuring comfort and safety throughout the session.
At Rejuvence Clinic, your treatment is carried out in a trusted, medically led environment, where safety, comfort and optimal results come first. Whether using BBL or Aerolase, you can expect a smooth experience and beautifully effective hair reduction tailored to your skin.
What will happen at my first consultation?
At Rejuvence we first arrange a consultation for you with our lead laser Aesthetician. We will take a quick history to find out about what you are looking to achieve, the areas you wish to treat, as well as further information about your general health and any medication you may be taking. We will then normally carry out a patch test whereby we will test the effect of the laser on a small area of skin to ensure that it is safe for you to go ahead and have treatment.
At your consultation our Aestheticians will also make an assessment of your skin. We will assess your skin type, any recent tanning effects, specific skin conditions and scarring in the treatment areas and finally decide on the safest type of laser for you as well as specific settings that will give you the best result with as few side-effects as possible.
What if I have a specific medical skin condition?
At Rejuvence we offer medically supported laser hair removal services. We have a team of laser Aestheticians and aesthetic doctors that work hand-in-hand. In the case of any specific medical conditions or skin problems our medical doctors are on hand to give advice and work with our laser Aesthetician to give you the best possible outcome. We also specialise in treating certain medical conditions affecting the skin and hair follicles with laser as well as hypertrophic and keloid scars on hair bearing parts of the body.
Medical Conditions Treated with Laser at Rejuvence
When will my laser hair removal treatment sessions begin?
Once we have ensured that you have skin that is safe to be treated with laser for hair removal we will begin your treatment. Your first laser hair removal session is normally carried out at least a week after your patch test to ensure that you do not have any adverse reactions and that it is safe to go through with treatment. Not everybody requires the same number of treatment sessions and we normally carry out treatment once every 4 to 6 weeks depending on the area as we are treating.
What happens during my laser hair removal treatment?
Our laser Aesthetician will give you specific instructions with regards to how to prepare for your treatment sessions. On the day of your treatment, you will be asked to wear specifically designed goggles to protect your eyes. Depending on the area being treated they may offer you some topical numbing cream to help with any pain that might be experienced during the treatment. With the Neo Elite system, no specific cooling is needed. Each session takes between 15 minutes to over an hour depending on the areas being treated.
What will happen after my treatment?
The affected areas may be slightly red and even develop a mild rash. They also can be slightly painful. Skin will tend to be more sensitive to touch and it is important to stay away from direct sunlight. We advise all of our clients to ensure they use regular sunscreen for at least four weeks on exposed areas that have been treated. We expect skin to recover completely within 2 to 3 days after treatment in the vast majority of clients.
Rarely it is possible to have some side-effects to treatment including red skin (erythema) that may last for some time, crusting, blistering, bruising, some lightening or darkening of the skin, and in extremely rare circumstances burns from the laser. Our Aestheticians are extremely experienced and we always ensure we do our utmost to prevent any significant side-effects. All of our services are supported by our medical doctors who are ready to help at any point.
