What is Leg Hair Removal?
Leg hair removal refers to the process of eliminating unwanted hair from the lower extremities. This can be achieved through various methods such as shaving, waxing, or depilatory creams. However, these traditional methods often cause temporary results and skin irritation. At The Doctors Laser Clinic we recommend what we think is the best method – laser hair removal.
Why Leg hair removal?
Perhaps the most common place for hair to be removed among women, removing unwanted leg hair is something almost all modern-day women do.
Especially during the summer, wearing dresses and skirts without tights is massively popular. But, if legs are hairy, many women feel unable to wear such clothing without having removed their leg hair first.
Shaving is typically the most popular method, simply because it’s quick, easy, and can be done from the comfort of your own home. But, whilst your legs may feel super smooth straight after shaving, within a mere couple of days they’ll start to feel prickly and uncomfortable, resulting razor burn and ingrown hairs.
- Award Winning Laser Technology
- Achieve Smooth, Silky Skin
- Less Irritation from Shaving or Waxing
- Virtually Pain Free Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal offers a virtually pain-free alternative to shaving, and can be done across all parts of the legs to safely remove unwanted hair.
Here at the Doctors Laser Clinic, we take advantage of innovative Soprano laser technology to administer our hair removal procedure. The cutting-edge cooling mechanism will ensure skin remains undamaged from the treatment and, with the immensely powerful lasers produced, hair growth is inhibited from the first treatment.
To achieve maximum results of leg hair removal, multiple treatments are likely to be needed to target hair during all points of the growth cycle. But once this has been achieved, you’ll never have to think twice about wearing a dress or skirt again, and you can finally say goodbye to the hassle of shaving!
Why Choose Laser Hair Removal for Legs?
Opting for laser hair removal for legs offers several benefits. It provides long-term results compared to other methods, reducing the need for regular maintenance. Laser hair removal is also precisely capable of targeting dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. It’s an effective method for large areas such as the legs.
The Doctors Laser Clinic's Approach to Leg Hair Removal
At The Doctors Laser Clinic, we strive to offer the most efficient and comfortable leg hair removal services.
Our Leg Hair Removal Technique
Our clinic utilises advanced laser technology that emits a specific wavelength of light absorbed by the pigment in the hair. This causes thermal damage to the hair follicle, preventing future growth.

Pre and Post Care for Leg Hair Removal
The success of your laser hair removal treatment relies heavily on proper pre and post-care.
Preparing for Your Laser Hair Removal Session
Prior to your appointment, avoid sun exposure and tanning, as this can increase the risk of skin lightening. Also, refrain from waxing or plucking for at least six weeks before your session, as these methods can disturb the hair follicle and affect the efficacy of the treatment.
Aftercare Tips for Leg Hair Removal
Post-treatment, it’s important to protect your skin from the sun and avoid hot baths or saunas for at least 48 hours. Use a gentle, fragrance-free moisturiser to soothe the skin and reduce any temporary redness or swelling.

Frequently Asked Questions
During your consultation with us, we’ll answer any questions or concerns you may have.
What can I expect from Laser Hair Removal?
One session of laser hair removal typically won’t take longer than an hour, but this depends on the specific areas receiving treatment.
Prior to actual treatment taking place, we offer a free test service in which a patch test is conducted a few days before the first treatment. This is to rule out any potential allergic reactions your skin may have.
Before arriving, we highly recommend shaving your chosen treatment area to prepare your skin for the laser. If hair is still present, pigment above the skin will absorb the light as opposed to the deeper follicles, causing the entire treatment process to be virtually ineffective.
Is Laser Hair Removal painful?
Some other methods of administering laser hair removal can be painful due to short, sharp administration of light.
However, the Soprano technology we use here guarantees a virtually painless experience over all areas of skin. Its unique cooling mechanism ensures skin doesn’t sting or burn due to the laser’s heat, and outer layers of visible skin won’t be damaged.
Multiple treatments every 4-6 weeks are likely required to be entirely hair-free for a long period of time; hair must be treated at the correct point of its growth cycle to ensure maximum follicle damage.
Laser Hair Removal Aftercare:
If you’ve received treatment on a typically-exposed part of your body, we highly recommend staying out of the sun during the entire process of receiving laser hair removal treatments.
Skin may be slightly sensitive or red directly after treatment, but this is totally normal and should subside within 24-48 hours.
How Does Laser Leg Hair Removal Work?
Laser leg hair removal employs a scientific technique called selective photothermolysis. This process involves directing concentrated light into hair follicles. The melanin in the follicles absorbs the light, which then converts to heat, damaging the follicle and inhibiting future hair growth. This method targets hair without causing harm to surrounding skin tissue.
Is Laser Leg Hair Removal Safe?
When conducted by trained professionals, laser leg hair removal is considered safe. However, like any procedure, it carries some risk. Potential side effects may include temporary skin irritation and pigment changes.
How Long Does a Laser Leg Hair Removal Session Take?
The length of a laser hair removal session can vary based on the size of the area being treated. A session for both legs can take approximately 60 minutes, give or take.
How Many Sessions Will I Need for Complete Leg Hair Removal?
The number of sessions required can vary based on individual factors such as hair thickness and growth cycle. Generally, most people require six to eight sessions to achieve optimal results.
How Long Will the Results of Laser Hair Removal Last?
The results of laser hair removal are often long-lasting. After a series of treatments, most people experience a significant reduction in hair growth. However, some maintenance treatments may be necessary over time.
