Why Laser Hair Removal is Essential for Today’s Aesthetic Beauty Clinic

Richard Kadri-Langford • Nov 11, 2020

One of the biggest treatments across the industry, hair removal can be delivered in a myriad of ways, with a huge number of treatment options available for aesthetic beauty professionals. However, not all options are equal. If you are looking for the most profitable, high-quality and efficient option, let us give you the facts.

With the removal of hair carried out by an estimated 98% of women and a fast-growing male sector of society now wanting a follicle solution, is it any wonder that hair removal remains one of the biggest treatments across the industry?

From retail lotions and potions to ancient techniques such as threading, there is a myriad of depilation options available – yet the old wax pot sits proud, bubbling away in treatment rooms across the nation as a ‘core’, ‘must-have’ and ‘go-to’ treatment for the aesthetic beauty operator. The question is, why?

Our compatriots in Europe have long since ditched the sticky, messy and painful wax experience. Our cousins across the pond in the USA don’t understand why salons and clinics join the race to the bottom with such a low price treatment – “Show me the money!” I hear them cry!

Surveys show that an amazing 75% of women would like unwanted hair removed permanently

Surveys show that an amazing 75% of women would like unwanted hair removed permanently (we haven’t yet asked all those under-30 males following their Love Island brothers). So, if you haven’t considered introducing laser hair removal to your beauty business, do you not think you are missing a trick?

Is it fear? A reluctance to change? Or a blind loyalty to your wax supplier, who loves seeing you habitually re-order as often as you pay your mobile phone bill.

Let’s have a look at the common misconceptions:

“Wax clients are my bread and butter!”

Wrong!

Most of your wax clients aren’t loyal or of real value to your business. It would be great to see ‘Lucy’ every four weeks for her 15-minute bikini line wax, generating £12 a treatment, £144 a year. However, that often doesn’t happen in the real world!

Most waxing customers use you for convenience; “I need it done ASAP for my summer holiday!”, “I’ve got a date!”, I’ve been lazy and let it get out of hand.” If your price is not competitive, irrelevant of the waxing product or protocol you use, they pop into the next salon, nail bar, hairdresser, chemist, department store … you get the idea. Essentially every Tom, Dick and Harry offer fundamentally the same low-margin treatment as you do.

“Waxing is a profitable part of my business”

You could do better!

Unless you are a dedicated wax bar, with your whole business model based on fast, efficient delivery and volume of clients, does waxing really stack up in a post-COVID world?

“Lasers are painful, expensive and don’t always work”

Not anymore!
