Why choose laser hair removal for the lower legs ?
Laser hair removal for the lower legs is one of the most sought-after areas in aesthetic medicine. It allows for a lasting solution to hair removal, while avoiding irritations and rapid regrowth associated with traditional methods such as shaving or waxing.
The treatment is suitable for all seasons (excluding direct sun exposure) and is appropriate for both women and men. With state-of-the-art medical lasers, the sessions are effective and well-tolerated.
What to expect during a session
Each session begins with a medical consultation to assess your phototype, hair growth, and to rule out any contraindications. The doctor then adjusts the laser parameters according to your skin type and the treated area.
- Average duration of a session : 20 to 30 minutes
- Recommended number of sessions : 6 to 8 depending on individual cases
- Interval between sessions : every 6 to 8 weeks
Wearing protective glasses is mandatory during the treatment. A tingling or warm sensation may be experienced, but it is generally moderate due to the laser's integrated cooling system.
Precautions before and after sessions
- Avoid sun exposure 30 days before and after the session.
- Do not wax or thread before sessions (shaving only allowed).
- Thoroughly moisturise the skin and avoid photosensitising products (essential oils, fruit acids, etc.).
- In case of redness or minor swelling, a soothing cream may be prescribed by the doctor.
Expected results
The first results can be seen after the first or second session : hair gradually falls out, and regrowth significantly slows down. After the full course, most patients notice a reduction in hair density of over 80%, with smooth skin free from ingrown hairs and dark spots related to shaving.
An annual maintenance treatment may be recommended depending on skin and hormonal types.
