Question 1

How long does a laser hair removal session take?

Accepted Answer

Using the revolutionary “Slide & Glide” technique means treatment is completed in minutes. The treatment applicator is swept back and forth repeatedly across the designated area whilst rapid pulses of low-energy light are pulsed into the skin, ensuring full coverage and effective treatment.

Question 2

How Does Solaris Laser Treatment Work?

Accepted Answer

The Solaris Laser Machine uses advanced, multi-wavelength laser technology to deliver targeted treatment. For hair removal, the laser targets the hair follicles, preventing future growth without damaging surrounding skin. When it comes to tattoo removal, the laser breaks down ink particles, allowing the body to naturally process and eliminate them over time. For skin concerns such as wrinkles, acne, stretch marks, and pigmentation, the Solaris Laser stimulates collagen production, encouraging the skin to regenerate and improve in texture, tone, and appearance. Each treatment is tailored to your specific needs, ensuring that your skin gets the best possible care.

Question 5

What to Expect During Your Solaris Laser Treatment

Accepted Answer

Your journey at Nu-Yu Advanced Skin Solutions  begins with a personalised consultation, where our skincare experts will assess your skin and create a tailored treatment plan. The treatment itself typically lasts between 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You may feel a mild tingling or warmth during the procedure, but most clients find it comfortable and well-tolerated. Afterward, there is no downtime, and you can return to your daily activities immediately.
For hair and tattoo removal, as well as stretch mark reduction, multiple sessions are typically required to achieve the best results, depending on the area and treatment type. Our team will guide you through a recommended treatment schedule.
While you’ll see improvements right away, full results may take a few weeks to months to develop, especially for hair, tattoo, and stretch mark removal. As your skin regenerates and collagen builds, you’ll notice smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin. For optimal results, a series of treatments is often recommended.

Question 7

Who Is Laser Hair Removal For?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal is ideal for anyone looking for a more permanent reduction in unwanted hair. It’s suitable for both men and women and can be tailored to different skin types and hair textures.
This treatment is especially beneficial for clients who:
 • Want smoother skin without daily shaving
 • Struggle with ingrown hairs or irritation
 • Are looking for long-term hair reduction
 • Prefer a more convenient alternative to waxing

Question 8

What Does Laser Hair Removal Do?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal works by reducing unwanted hair growth in treated areas. Over a course of sessions, it can significantly decrease the thickness and number of hairs, helping you achieve long-term smoothness.
It is commonly used on areas such as:
 • Legs
 • Underarms
 • Bikini line
 • Face (upper lip, chin)
 • Back and chest
 • Arms
Results are gradual, with hair becoming finer and less noticeable after each treatment.

Question 9

How Does Laser hair removal Work?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal uses concentrated pulses of light energy that are absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle. This energy heats and disables the follicle, reducing its ability to produce new hair.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are needed to target follicles at the right stage of growth for the best results.
The treatment is quick, precise, and designed to protect the surrounding skin while focusing only on the hair follicle.

A consultation is always recommended to assess your skin and hair type and create a personalised treatment plan.

Question 10

Is it safe for my skin tone?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While some older lasers carry risks for darker skin, the Solaris Laser is a next-generation platform engineered to treat every skin type safely. We meticulously adjust energy levels and wavelengths based on your specific Fitzpatrick skin type to ensure effective results without the risk of pigmentation changes.

Question 11

Does it hurt?

Accepted Answer

Most clients find the treatments very manageable. Our Solaris system features integrated active skin cooling technology, which protects the surface of the skin and provides a gentle, "virtually pain-free" experience compared to traditional lasers. Some describe the sensation as a light tingling or a warm "pinprick".

Question 12

Why do I need a patch test?

Accepted Answer

A patch test is a vital safety step performed at least 24–48 hours before your first full session. It allows us to see how your skin reacts to the laser settings, ensuring we can deliver the most effective treatment with the lowest possible risk of irritation

Question 13

How many sessions will I need?

Accepted Answer

Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are required to catch every hair in its active growth phase. Most clients see optimal results after 6 to 8 sessions, though this varies depending on the area being treated and individual hair type.

Question 14

Can I shave between appointments?

Accepted Answer

Yes, please do! You should shave the area 24 hours before your appointment so the laser can target the follicle directly. However, you must avoid waxing, plucking, or epilating, as these methods remove the hair follicle that the laser needs to target.

Question 15

What is the most important aftercare rule?

Accepted Answer

Sun protection is non-negotiable. Laser-treated skin is temporarily more sensitive to UV rays. You must wear a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher and avoid direct sun exposure or tanning beds for several weeks before and after your sessions to prevent uneven skin tone

Question 16

Is There Anything I Need To Do Before My Treatment

Accepted Answer

Your Pre-Treatment Checklist
To ensure your treatment is safe and you get the best possible results from the Solaris system, please follow this checklist before your first visit to Nu-Yu Advanced Skin Solutions
2–4 Weeks Before
 • Sun Exposure: Avoid sunbeds and direct sun exposure for 4 weeks. If you have a tan or sunburn, we must wait at least 2 weeks until it has fully faded.
 • Hair Removal: Stop waxing, plucking, or epilating 4–6 weeks before. The laser needs the hair follicle to be present to work.
1 Week Before
 • Products: Discontinue use of Retinols, AHAs/BHAs, or strong physical exfoliants on the treatment area.
 • Medication: Disclose any new medications (especially antibiotics or light-sensitising drugs) to your specialist.
24 Hours Before
 • Shave: Shave the treatment area cleanly. This prevents surface hair from burning and allows energy to reach the follicle.
 • Skin Prep: Keep the area free from lotions, perfumes, deodorants, and makeup on the day of treatment.
