Q: Laser Hair Removal Norwich: Pay As You Go vs. Course — Which Is Right for You?
Answered by Charlotte, Norwich’s Trusted Beauty Expert
Question
Hi Charlotte,
I’ve been looking into laser hair removal and noticed you offer both Pay As You Go and Course options. What’s the difference between them, and which is better value?
Thanks so much!

Hi Lucy,
Thanks so much for your message! I introduced the Pay As You Go option to make laser hair removal more accessible — especially for those who want to spread the cost and can’t commit to a full upfront payment.
Both options have their benefits, and it really depends on what feels best for you financially. Some of our clients love the flexibility of PAYG, while others prefer the savings and structure of a full course.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
✨ Pay As You Go – Book and pay for each session as you go. To access the saving per session, you’ll pay an upfront cost equal to one full treatment, which secures your place on the PAYG plan. That payment is held on your account and used to cover your sixth session — so you’re still committing to a course of six. It’s a great option if you'd like to spread the cost while still getting a saving.
✨ Course of 6 – This is our best-value option. You pay upfront and receive six treatments with 50% off the single treatment price! Perfect if you’re ready to commit and want to maximise both results and savings.
To help you decide, it’s worth thinking about how many areas you’d like to treat and how ready you feel to start. I’m more than happy to talk it through or check availability for your consultation whenever you’re ready.
Let me know how I can help!

Laser Hair Removal Norwich: Pay As You Go vs Course – Which Option Is Right for You?
If you’ve been looking into laser hair removal in Norwich, one of the first questions you’ve probably asked is:
“How much does it cost?”
Followed quickly by…
“Do I have to pay for it all upfront?”
At Charisma Beauty & Skincare, we know that everyone’s circumstances are different, and that’s why we offer two flexible payment options for our diode laser hair removal:
👉 Pay As You Go
👉 Upfront Payment of a Course of 6 Treatments
Let’s break them both down so you can choose the one that fits your life, your budget, and your goals.
💰 How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost in Norwich?
The cost of laser hair removal varies depending on the area you're treating and whether you choose a single treatment, a Pay As You Go plan, or a course.
At Charisma, we’ve made things simple and transparent:
- Single treatments are priced individually by area
- Pay As You Go offers you savings without needing to pay for a full course upfront
- Courses of 6 treatments give you the best overall value — saving you 50% vs single treatment prices

🧾 Option 1: Pay As You Go – Spread the Cost, Still Get a Saving
We created Pay As You Go laser pricing for clients who prefer not to pay everything upfront but still want access to savings.
Here’s how it works:
- You pay an upfront amount equal to one treatment cost — this is held as a deposit and redeemed against your 6th treatment.
- You pay for each session as you go at the PAYG rate, which is cheaper per session than the single one-off price.
✨ Perfect if:
- You want to spread the cost
- You prefer flexibility in how and when you pay
💎 Option 2: Course of 6 – The Best Value Package
If you’re ready to commit to a full treatment plan, this is the most cost-effective option.
- You pay upfront for all 6 sessions
- You receive 6 treatments for the price of 3 — that’s 50% off compared to single price
- Everything is sorted in advance, so you can simply relax and enjoy the results
✨ Ideal if:
- You’re treating multiple or larger areas
- You’re fully committed to completing your course
- You want the biggest saving possible
📍 Which Option Is Best for Me?
Honestly — both are brilliant. It just depends on your comfort level and priorities.
Choose Pay As You Go if:
- You’re happy to spread the cost over time and pay a little more
Choose Course of 6 if:
- You want the best value
- You’re planning to treat multiple areas
- You want fast results and to stick to a regular schedule
✨ Laser Hair Removal in Norwich – What Else You Should Know
- We use a medical-grade diode laser (virtually pain-free!)
- Most clients need 6–8 sessions per area
- £30 consultation & patch test — redeemable if you book a course on the same day
