Real client results

Bikini, underarms and chin, before and after laser

Four Dermacy Clinic clients, photographed before their first session and after their course. Choose an area to compare.

Dense dark regrowth across a woman’s bikini area before laser hair removal at Dermacy Clinic in Armthorpe, DoncasterBefore
The same bikini area after a course of laser hair removal, with the hair cleared and the skin smooth, at Dermacy Clinic in Armthorpe, DoncasterAfter the course
Bikini area

Coarse, dark bikini hair is what the laser targets best, so it is often one of the quickest areas to clear. Most clients need six to eight sessions, and shaving rash and ingrown hairs settle as the hair thins.

Thick dark underarm hair before laser hair removal at Dermacy Clinic in Armthorpe, DoncasterBefore
The same underarm after a course of laser hair removal, with the hair cleared, at Dermacy Clinic in Armthorpe, DoncasterAfter the course
Underarms

Thick underarm hair cleared to smooth skin. A short appointment of around 25 minutes, usually six to eight sessions spaced four to six weeks apart.

The same underarm on fair skin after laser hair removal, with the hair cleared, at Dermacy Clinic in Armthorpe, DoncasterAfter the course
Underarms on fair skin

Dark hair against lighter skin gives the laser a clear target. The shadow and stubble go first; the last few finer hairs take the final sessions.

Dark stubble on a woman’s chin before laser hair removal at Dermacy Clinic in Armthorpe, DoncasterBefore
The same chin after a course of laser hair removal, with the stubble cleared, at Dermacy Clinic in Armthorpe, DoncasterAfter the course
Chin

Chin hair is often hormonal, so it usually takes more sessions than the body and an occasional top-up. If new facial hair appears suddenly, it is worth mentioning to your GP as well.

What these photographs show. The reduction a completed course gave these clients. Laser is long-term hair reduction rather than permanent removal, and your own result depends on your hair colour and thickness, your skin, your hormones and how many sessions you complete. Your estimate is given at the clinic, not from a photograph.

I cannot recommend this clinic enough, I am several sessions into laser hair removal with Songul and I am noticing very good results so far. Songul is very helpful and kind while not only making you feel comfortable but to have a nice conversation with too. ☺️

I’ve been having laser hair removal and the whole experience has been really nice and calm. Songul is incredibly professional as well as genuinely friendly, which makes such a difference. It’s felt great being on this journey with her — even on the days when I’m not the easiest client to deal with! She’s always patient and reassuring, and I’ve felt comfortable and well looked after throughout. 🙂

Why women book

Why women switch from waxing and shaving to laser

Most women come in with one area that has turned into a weekly job.

Bikini lineNo more rash or ingrown hairs

Shaving and waxing the bikini line cause most of the ingrown hairs and red bumps we see. As the hair thins, the skin settles, because there is less hair left to grow back in.

FaceChin and upper lip that keep coming back

Hormonal hair on the chin and upper lip is the most common facial request. Laser thins it steadily, with an occasional top-up when hormones change.

Time and costStop paying for every regrowth

A wax every four to six weeks adds up to hours and hundreds of pounds a year. A course ends most of that, with short top-ups afterwards.

HolidaysSmooth legs and underarms without the razor

Start well before a holiday. Sessions need your skin out of the sun and free of fake tan, so we plan your course around the trip.

Bright consultation and skin analysis area at Dermacy Clinic
Triple-wavelength 755 / 810 / 1064 nm ice diode

Laser hair removal for light, medium and dark skin tones

Dermacy Clinic uses a triple-wavelength ice diode laser that combines 755, 810 and 1064 nm with integrated cooling, and every Fitzpatrick skin type from I to VI is assessed at consultation. Dark hair on lighter skin gives the clearest target. Medium and olive skin is planned around recent tanning. On darker skin the 1064 nm wavelength is used, with conservative first settings. Settings are chosen for your skin, hair and treatment area rather than copied from a chart, and a patch test is available if you would like to check first.

755
755 nm wavelength

Best for fine and lighter hair on fair skin.

810
810 nm wavelength

The all-rounder for most skin tones and hair types.

1064
1064 nm wavelength

Reaches deeper follicles and is used for darker skin tones and coarse hair.

Comfort: integrated cooling is used to support comfort, but individual sensation varies. Clients may feel warmth, tingling or a brief elastic-band-like sensation.
How it works

From consultation to your last session

Five steps, and a few rules between sessions that decide how well your course works.

STEP 01

Consultation

Discuss the treatment area, skin history, hair pattern, medication and your goals. £30, deducted from your treatment when you go ahead.

STEP 02

Skin and hair assessment

Your current Fitzpatrick type, hair pigment, hair density, tanning and medical history are reviewed.

STEP 03

Patch test

A small test area may be used before the first full treatment where appropriate.

STEP 04

Treatment

The area is prepared and treated systematically using individual device settings.

STEP 05

Aftercare

You receive practical guidance and a proposed interval for your next appointment.

Do

  • Shave the area the day before or the morning of each session
  • Arrive with clean skin: no deodorant on the underarms and no make-up on treated areas
  • Use SPF 50 on exposed areas between sessions
  • Tell us about new medication, pregnancy or a holiday before your session

Do not

  • Wax, pluck, thread or epilate for four weeks before a session
  • Use sunbeds, deliberate sun or fake tan for two weeks either side
  • Have a hot bath, sauna, swim or workout for 48 hours afterwards
  • Use perfumed products, scrubs or retinol on treated skin for a few days
Booking a bikini area? Shaving the evening before gives sensitive skin time to settle. The exact area is agreed with you privately before every session.
Safety and aftercare

Clear information before you book

Risks should be visible and readable rather than hidden in small print.

  • Warmth or mild tenderness

Follow the personalised aftercare provided by your practitioner. Avoid unnecessary heat and strong sun exposure, and contact the clinic when you are uncertain about a reaction.

Frequently asked questions

Laser hair removal questions, answered

Short, straight answers, with the caveats that matter for a safe and realistic result.

Ask a Question
Where can I get laser hair removal in Doncaster?
Dermacy Clinic treats women and men at Park View, Church Street, Armthorpe, Doncaster, DN3 3AG, with free customer parking directly outside. Women’s and men’s areas have separate price lists, because the areas and appointment lengths are different.
Do you treat clients from Rotherham, Sheffield or Worksop?
Yes. Clients travel to Armthorpe from Rotherham, Sheffield, Worksop, Gainsborough, Maltby, Thorne, Bawtry and Tickhill, usually 20 to 40 minutes by car, with free parking right outside the clinic. All treatments take place at the Doncaster clinic. You can book a session directly, or start with a consultation and patch test to check suitability before committing to a course.
How much is laser hair removal in Doncaster?
Single areas start from £25. Current examples include upper lip £30, chin and lip £45, underarms £60, Hollywood bikini £80, full face £70 and full legs £130 per session. Full-body packages are £180 or £230 per session, and the same course offers apply. Choose your area at the top of this page to compare a single session with both course prices and book online.
Is there a discount for booking online?
Yes. Book online through our booking page and £5 comes off any area priced £60 or more a session, applied automatically with no code needed. It also comes off the 8 + 1 and 10 + 2 course price when you book a course online.
How much is the laser consultation and patch test?
£30, and the full amount is deducted from your treatment when you go ahead. It is optional: you can also book a session directly. The consultation covers your skin, hair, medical history and goals, and the patch test is checked after 24 to 48 hours, before your first full session.
What course offers do you have?
Buy 8 sessions and get 1 free, 9 sessions in total, or buy 10 and get 2 free, 12 in total. For example, underarms cost £480 for 9 sessions or £600 for 12. The number of sessions you need is confirmed at the clinic, so you know what to expect before you choose a course.
Can I pay for laser hair removal in instalments?
Yes. Patient finance is available through Medicred, so you can spread the cost of a course instead of paying it all at once. Finance is subject to approval; ask us at your consultation, by phone or on WhatsApp and we will explain how to apply.
How many laser sessions will I need?
Usually six to eight on the underarms, bikini and legs, and eight to twelve on the face, where hair is more often hormonal. Hair grows in cycles, so each session only reaches the hairs that are actively growing. Your own number is confirmed at the clinic rather than from a chart.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Most people describe a warm snap, like an elastic band. The tip is cooled, which takes the edge off considerably. The upper lip and bikini are the most sensitive; legs and arms are mild by comparison. If an area is hard going, we slow down rather than push through it.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
It is long-term hair reduction rather than guaranteed permanent removal. Follicles that are properly treated do not come back, but hormones can activate new ones over the years, especially on the face, so an occasional top-up session is normal.
Does laser help with PCOS or hormonal facial hair?
It can help a great deal, but expect more sessions than on the body and occasional maintenance, because hormones keep producing new hair. If facial hair has appeared suddenly or is spreading quickly, it is worth seeing your GP as well, and laser can continue alongside any medical care.
What is the difference between bikini line, Hollywood and extended bikini?
The bikini line (£40) treats hair that shows outside a standard brief line. Hollywood (£80) covers the whole intimate area. Extended bikini (£100) treats a wider area beyond the bikini line, and your practitioner explains exactly how it differs from Hollywood before treatment. The area is always agreed with you privately first.
Can I have laser hair removal on my period?
Yes, for most areas. For a bikini treatment, wear a tampon on the day. Skin can feel more sensitive around your period, so some clients prefer to book outside it.
Can I have laser hair removal while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Laser hair removal is normally postponed during pregnancy. Tell us if you are pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding before booking, and we will advise on timing.
Do I need a patch test?
No, it is optional. You can book your first session directly, or start with a £30 consultation and patch test if you would like to see how your skin and hair respond first; the £30 is deducted from your treatment when you go ahead. A patch test is a good idea if you have deeper skin, a history of pigmentation, or have had laser elsewhere on a different machine.
Can you assess all Fitzpatrick skin types?
Yes. Fitzpatrick skin types I–VI are assessed at consultation. Treatment is not automatically suitable for every person, so your practitioner checks suitability before treating, and a consultation and patch test are available if you would like to check first.
Is laser hair removal suitable for dark skin?
Yes, Fitzpatrick skin types V and VI can be assessed. The 1064 nm wavelength is the one that makes deeper skin tones treatable safely, because it is the least absorbed by pigment in the skin. Expect conservative first settings and a slower build. Recent tanning, medication, skin condition and any past pigmentation problems are also reviewed.
Is laser hair removal suitable for light skin?
Yes. Fitzpatrick skin types I and II can be assessed. Dark hair on light skin is the easiest combination to treat, but very light hair may not give the laser enough to target.
Does laser work on blonde, red, grey or white hair?
Very light blonde, red, grey and white hair usually responds poorly, because the laser relies on pigment in the hair. At consultation we tell you whether the hair you want treated has enough pigment to make a course worthwhile.
What laser technology does Dermacy Clinic use?
A triple-wavelength ice diode laser that combines 755, 810 and 1064 nm with integrated cooling. Settings are chosen for your skin, hair and treatment area.
Should I shave before laser hair removal?
Yes. Shave the area the day before or the morning of your session, and do not wax, pluck, thread or epilate for four weeks beforehand, because the laser needs the hair root in place. Follow the preparation your practitioner gives you.
Can I have laser hair removal with a tan?
Recent sun, sunbeds or fake tan can delay a session, because tanned skin absorbs more of the laser’s energy. Keep the area out of the sun and free of fake tan for two weeks either side of each session, and tell us about any holiday so we can plan around it.
Is there downtime after laser hair removal?
Most clients go straight back to normal activities. Temporary redness, warmth, tenderness or small bumps around the follicles can occur. Avoid hot baths, saunas, swimming and workouts for 48 hours, and follow the aftercare your practitioner gives you.
How long does a session take?
Upper lip and chin take about 15 minutes, underarms about 25, a Hollywood bikini about 35 and full legs about an hour. Full-body packages are booked as a 90-minute appointment.
Which laser hair removal clinic is best in Doncaster?
The right clinic is one that offers a patch test, shows its prices, treats your skin type with the right wavelength and is honest about how many sessions you need. Dermacy Clinic does all four and is rated 4.9 from 145 Google reviews. Our guide on how to choose a laser clinic lists the questions worth asking any clinic.
Do you offer laser hair removal for men?
Yes. Men have their own areas, appointment lengths and prices, from £40, on the laser hair removal for men page, covering the back, chest, neck, beard line, arms and legs.
Where is Dermacy Clinic and what are the opening hours?
Dermacy Clinic is at Park View, Church Street, Armthorpe, Doncaster, DN3 3AG. It is open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 20:00 and closed on Sunday, with free parking right outside.
