Not a fan of razor cuts? We feel you! Whether you’re an unhappy shaver or just want a solution that lasts longer, these are some options for being fuzz-free. Here’s a list for where to go for hair removal in Singapore including treatments like laser and IPL (intense pulsed light), plus options like electrolysis and waxing.
EstheClinic – laser hair removal in Singapore & more
If you’re tired of pesky stray hairs, consider the IPL Permanent Hair Removal treatment at EstheClinic. Safe for all skin tones, it uses intense pulsed light to target and destroy hair follicles without damaging the surrounding skin. It’s great for areas like the upper lip, underarms, bikini line and legs. This treatment especially suits those who are a bit squirmy!
That’s because the procedure features EstheClinic’s patented No Pain System (NPS) technology. It uses a heating system that gradually distributes the energy over the treated area while eliminating the germ cells responsible for hair regrowth, promising a completely painless and hassle-free experience. It’s also got a built-in cooling technology, so you can feel only cool and warm sensations during the treatment. The team tells us that you can expect up to 80 percent hair reduction after just one session, and there’s no downtime.
From the initial consultation where the EstheClinic team assesses your unique needs and skin conditions, to the application of post-treatment soothing cream, every step is done with meticulous care. You can even enhance your results by combining your hair removal treatment with the clinic’s various skin and facial rejuvenation options to help reduce pigmentation, dark spots, uneven skin tone and more.
Special offer! New clients can now enjoy 50 percent off their first session of the IPL Permanent Hair Removal service, along with a complimentary consultation. EstheClinic also offers instalment plans and accepts Atome for added convenience.

Trimmings Salon & Spa – gentle laser hair removal in Singapore
Want to go for intense pulsed light but have sensitive skin? Trimmings has an alternative to offer. VPL, which stands for Variable Pulsed Light, is a system that uses shorter bursts of light to remove the fuzz on your body in a way that’s less aggressive, and thus less prone to agitate your skin.
To tackle hair removal in the bikini area, Trimmings ensures the VPL treatment is executed by certified aestheticians who prioritise your comfort above all. The best part about getting a treatment there is that you can transform one session into a full spa day. That’s because the salon offers services for all your needs, from head to toe.
Prices start from $300 for VP; give them a call to find out more.

Chez Moi De Beaute – dynamic intense pulsed light and waxing
Opting for permanent hair removal but afraid of the pain? Sharplight’s advanced IPL-DPC (Dynamic Pulse Control) at Chez Moi De Beaute allows for a pain-free, gentler and more efficient treatment compared to traditional intense pulsed light and waxing. The hair reduction procedure works by emitting a light beam that is absorbed by the hair into the hair follicle. This light energy turns into heat energy that coagulates the melanin in the follicle and destroys it. As a result, new hair is unable to grow from the follicle. DPC technology delivers precise, flexible and safe treatments to cater to different hair and skin types, including those with lighter hair colour or darker skin tones. The result is a non-invasive, long-term reduction of hair.
To ensure that there is little to no pain, the contact cooling treatment head helps to soothe skin in the affected area. First-timers can enjoy a discounted trial at 50 percent off the à la carte price per area.
