Contour Dio-Ice™ is considered the gold standard of hair-removal lasers as it can be used to treat all skin types effectively and with the fewest number of treatments. The laser emits near-infrared laser light that is absorbed by the melanin located in the hair follicle. The laser is pulsed for only a fraction of a second. The duration of each pulse is long enough to damage the follicle, without damaging the surrounding tissue.
The Dio-Ice’s triple wavelength technology allows for the hair removal treatment of all different skin types, effectively targeting different stages of hair growth optimising results.

Laser hair removal sessions –
6-10 sessions minimum (spaced 4-8 weeks apart), are required in order to completely remove hair, with annual maintenance treatment sessions to keep the hair gone. Some patients report no further hair growth after only 6-8 sessions. Lighter hair types or particularly dense, coarse hair types may require 8-12 sessions.
Preparation prior to your appointment
Shave
Shave the treatment area the night before your appointment.
No Waxing
Do not wax in the 4 weeks leading up to your appointment as pigment is required in the hair follicle for the laser to identify the hair and treatment to be effective
Avoid direct sunlight
Avoid exposing the area to direct sunlight for minimum 2-4 weeks prior to your treatment and always protect the skin with sunscreen.
