Imagine waking up and not counting down until your next shower or battling with stubborn stubble? Laser hair removal provides permanent smooth skin in just a few sessions.
Before your first laser treatment, be sure to shave your legs. Though hair doesn’t need to be present for it to work effectively, shaving will ensure that the laser targets only your follicle and not surface skin cells.
Cost
Imagine never needing to shave your legs again or take extra time in the shower to remove unwanted hair – with laser technology we offer an effective permanent solution! Say goodbye to razor burn, ingrown hairs and skin irritation thanks to laser treatments which stop new growth while simultaneously stopping future regrowth – laser treatments offer lasting relief!
Laser hair removal for legs depends on the size and frequency of treatments required, making it more cost-effective than shaving or waxing with an initial investment that may seem higher; but in comparison with repeated shaving or waxing over your lifetime it actually offers one of the more cost-effective solutions.
At SEV, we utilize a medical-grade laser to treat legs. Before your procedure, a nurse or technician will mark the areas to be treated using a skin-safe pencil in order to work methodically and not miss a single hair follicle. She then applies topical numbing cream in order to lessen any discomfort you might feel during your session – although most patients find their pain mild to moderate.
At your treatment session, a laser will be focused on each hair follicle to target and destroy it quickly and effectively. This process is fast and efficient so that you can return to your daily activities within just a few sessions.
To provide optimal results, we advise scheduling eight treatments around four weeks apart for full leg treatments. This will guarantee maximum hair reduction with long-lasting effects!
If you need to focus on only targeting one section of your leg – such as the knee or upper thigh – we offer quarter leg treatments as an economical and convenient solution. These are ideal for individuals seeking targeted relief on only certain portions of their legs.
For those seeking gradual hair reduction, we also provide an eight-session package for whole leg. With this solution, all your unwanted hair can be taken off in just several sessions rather than needing multiple sessions over multiple years.
Time
Laser hair removal for legs is typically an efficient process that takes no more than an hour to complete, with minimal to no downtime post treatment. To maximize results and ensure a positive experience it is recommended that direct UV exposure on skin be avoided for one week post treatment and that broad spectrum sunscreen be worn daily – otherwise irritation or inflammation in treated area could occur; aloe vera could help soothe it if that persists.
Laser hair removal provides a long-term solution that effectively eliminates unwanted hair at its source, eliminating ingrown hairs that can be such an irritation for those with sensitive skin. Furthermore, this solution may be especially useful in cases such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) where excess hair production occurs in certain areas.
Preparing for laser hair removal on legs involves exfoliating and shaving two to three days before your appointment. Shave until there are no longer any hairs longer than a grain of rice in this area and avoid waxing, tweezing and plucking treatments in this region.
After going through your initial series of laser treatments, you’ll discover that your hair begins to grow back with less frequency and lighter and finer textures. While initial visits might need to be scheduled every 6-8 weeks, over time this frequency should decrease and sessions can occur further apart.
Finding the appropriate number of laser treatments may take time, but once done your maintenance routine will become far simpler. With full leg laser hair removal treatment you could eventually say goodbye to shaving and waxing forever!
Imagine waking up to freshly-shaved legs that look and feel beautiful.

Preparation
Laser hair removal can help you get rid of embarrassing hair on your legs without ever having to worry about ingrown hairs or rough, stubble-covered skin again. While the procedure itself is straightforward and quick, there are certain precautions you should take prior to scheduling an appointment with a provider.
Your treatment area should be shaved 24 hours before your scheduled laser treatment to reduce the chance that it will burn your skin. Also avoid plucking or waxing in this area prior to receiving laser therapy since this could stop it from targeting hair follicles efficiently.
Some popular skin products can increase photosensitivity, making you more vulnerable to burning during laser hair removal. These include products containing benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid and retinol; therefore it is wise to refrain from taking these for 2-3 days prior to receiving laser hair removal treatment and be vigilant with sun exposure during this period – using sunscreen is highly recommended!
As with any treatment, wearing loose, comfortable clothing for your laser session is advised, since any tight clothing could potentially chafe against newly lasered skin and cause discomfort. In case you get cold during treatment, bring along an additional sweater or shawl as backup. In addition, lotions or makeup could irritate skin further reducing its sensitivity levels and making laser hair removal even less successful.
Individual results will depend on how long it takes them, but typically multiple treatments will be necessary in order to see noticeable change. Hair follicles in your legs have different growth cycles that you must accommodate; you should schedule appointments 4-10 weeks apart in order to see the most successful outcomes.
If you’re curious about laser hair removal for legs, the first step should be finding an accredited clinic. Get recommendations from friends or search online reviews; once you find something suitable, arrange a consultation session (which should be free) so you can discuss all of your options and decide if laser hair removal is right for you.
Results
Laser hair removal works by sending short pulses of light directly into your hair follicles, heating and disabling them so they cannot grow any more hair follicles, thus permanently eliminating it and leaving skin looking silky-smooth and bright. Laser treatment also offers great solutions for ingrown hairs – which occur when hair grows back into skin instead of coming out – often caused by shaving, waxing or tweezing; laser treatment effectively treats it at its source preventing ingrowns from happening again by treating the source.
Your pain expectations regarding laser hair removal may seem intimidating, but most find the procedure tolerable. Some describe it as feeling like pinpricks; other don’t notice a thing! Numbing cream should be applied prior to appointments in order to reduce sensations of discomfort; technicians also typically employ cooling gel in order to mitigate heat produced by the lasers.
If the length of your session concerns you, take comfort knowing that each treatment only requires minutes to complete and that several sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, may be necessary in order to see real results.
Before beginning, your nurse or technician will divide your skin into quadrants using a pencil so as not to miss any spots. She’ll then move the laser over your skin where you may feel a slight sting as the light hits hair follicles; most find this process much less painful than waxing and can resume their daily lives without the worry of stubble appearing again.
After receiving laser therapy, it’s also essential to avoid direct sunlight on the treated areas for one week following therapy and avoid tanning beds and sun lamps. If they become red or swollen after your session, aloe vera may help soothe them. You should also refrain from using products on the skin which could act as barriers against the laser such as lotion or body oil; such products could render treatment less effective while potentially leading to skin darkening or sensitivities.
