Legs

Permanent hair removal for the legs – an end to constant shaving

The legs are one of the largest areas and often the most frequently shaved. At dermAesthetics, you get permanent hair removal that keeps your legs smooth long term – by trained specialists and with technology tailored to your skin.

Permanent hair removal for the legs

Why many choose treatment for the legs

Few areas take as much time as the legs. Shaving has to be repeated every few days, and the result rarely lasts. On top of that come stubble, dryness, and the little red dots many know as strawberry legs. Waxing is painful, and even after epilating the hair grows back completely.

This is exactly where permanent hair removal for the legs comes in: hair growth is reduced long term, so you shave less often – for smoother legs with far less effort.

Treatment areas within the legs

Here is what belongs to which area with us, so you know in advance what you are booking.

Lower legs

From the knee down to the ankles, one of the most popular zones.

Thighs

From the knee up, the larger of the two leg zones.

Knees

The knee area, often treated in combination with the thighs or lower legs.

Feet

The tops of the feet and toes, a small zone for an all-round polished result.

Full legs

Thighs and lower legs together as a complete treatment.

Areas can be freely combined. You can find what each zone costs on our laser hair removal costs page.

How your treatment works

Large areas, treated efficiently

The Candela GentleMax Pro works with large spot sizes, so even the legs are treated in a manageable amount of time.

Treated by trained professionals

Our NiSV-certified specialists treat the legs evenly, so no spots are missed.

The test pulse comes first

Before the actual treatment begins, we apply a test pulse to a small spot. So you know how it feels before anything continues.

Easy to plan into your day

An appointment for the full legs fits well into your day – we discuss the exact duration in advance.

Gentle on the skin, even over large areas

Even over a large area like the legs, the treatment should stay comfortable. That is why the Candela GentleMax Pro laser releases a cooling spray onto the skin before each pulse – making the treatment noticeably more comfortable. The settings are adjusted to your skin type and hair structure, including darker skin tones. Learn more.

Permanent hair removal for the legs – how to prepare

Before your appointment

  • Shave your legs one to two days beforehand so your skin can settle
  • Avoid epilating, waxing, and plucking – the laser needs the hair follicle as its target
  • Come to your appointment with no creams, oils, or lotion on the skin
  • Avoid intense sun and self-tanner in the weeks before

After the treatment

  • Wear loose, long clothing for the first few days to avoid friction
  • Skip the sauna, swimming pool, and hot baths for one to two days
  • Leave out intense sport for one to two days so the skin is not irritated further
  • Apply sunscreen consistently on treated legs when in the sun

Frequently asked questions

That depends on your hair structure, skin type, and goal. Several sessions are usually needed, since hair only responds during its growth phase. You get a realistic assessment in your consultation.
