There are many ways to temporarily or permanently remove hair to achieve silky smooth skin. These methods include the use of hair removal creams, shaving, epilation, waxing, and laser treatments. Your skin tone, skin sensitivity, hair type and commitment to ongoing maintenance can influence the efficacy of each type of hair removal method. Therefore, the optimal hair removal treatment may differ between individuals. Discover the benefits of waxing, the world's most popular hair removal method and learn why AFT laser is the leading semi-permanent hair removal treatment available today.
Waxing is a non-permanent hair removal method that removes hair from the root. First, a thin layer of hot wax is applied over the skin, before pressing a cloth strip on top. The wax is then pulled off swiftly against the direction of hair growth. Waxing can be performed on most areas of the body, and hair regrowth can be expected within 3-6 weeks.

AFT laser hair removal, is the superior form of Super Hair Removal (SHR). It is a semi-permanent laser hair removal treatment method that utilises Advanced Fluorescence Technology (AFT) to create beams of filtered light to gradually target and weaken hair follicles, making it suitable for all hair and skin types, including sensitive skin. Compared to traditional laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) procedures, AFT hair removal treatments are gentler and more comfortable, yielding more precise and faster results with minimal to no downtime after each treatment. On average, 6 to 10 sessions are required to fully remove all hair in the targeted area, depending on the hair regrowth rate.
No Downtime
Strip’s AFT machines use a narrower wavelength to target hair follicles more precisely, and a wider applicator head to cover a bigger area each time. The even distribution of energy ensures that all targeted areas are equally treated for more effective hair removal, at a faster speed.
AFT laser hair removal is one of the most effective, pain-free methods of hair removal. A cooling gel is applied before and during the treatment to soothe any excess warmth encountered from the machine. The treatment is also suitable for all hair and skin types, including sensitive skin.
The low energy light pulses used are gentle on the skin, coupled with a unique cooling system that further extracts heat from the skin for maximum protection with each pulse. This leads to a comfortable experience with minimal or no complications after each session.

AFT Hair Removal Frequently Asked Questions
AFT is the superior form of light or laser therapy and the new gold standard for semi permanent hair removal. IPL (Intense Pulse Light) uses high energy levels of light for treatments and is considered older technology. SHR (Super Hair removal uses single pulsed high intensity light beams to heat up hair follicles to remove hair which can lead to adverse treatment effects. AFT (Advanced Fluorescence Technology) uses low energy filtered light to target hair follicles. AFT's special filters harness the power of previously unused light spectrums, as well as reduce harmful energy peaks, making AFT treatments more effective, safer and quicker than IPL or SHR.
Hair removal using AFT technology is a much more comfortable and painless method of hair removal than other methods such as waxing, epilating, IPL or SHR, and the procedure is much more gentle on the skin. AFT Powerpac technology uses a gradual heating system that emits light energy via multiple passes to gently target hair follicles, while lowering the risk of burns and discomfort, common to other types of laser hair removal treatments.
AFT hair reduction results can be observed after the first treatment, and are more noticeable after 4 to 6 sessions. Depending on individual and body area, some may require annual maintenance treatments.
