Leg laser hair removal

Count the minutes legs cost you: shaving every second or third day, year after year, plus the razors, the creams, and the ingrown hairs that follow. Legs are the largest area a laser treats — which is exactly why they pay back the most time of any zone once the course is done.

The numbers are published and fixed. Legs come in the complete set with bikini and underarms: €100 a session, a 4-session package at €380, or the full 8-session course at €700 — which works out to about €88 a session for the whole lower body. Most people need 6–8 visits, 4–6 weeks apart, and after that only a rare maintenance session.

A complete-set session takes up to two hours, and it is deliberately unhurried: the laser head cools the skin as it moves, you can bring headphones or simply rest, and pauses are always fine. Legs themselves feel milder than the more sensitive zones — most describe the pulses as warm snaps that fade as the session settles into rhythm.

Timing a leg course is worth a thought: autumn and winter are ideal, because the skin is untanned — sun and self-tanner must be avoided for two weeks around each session — and an autumn start finishes the course comfortably before beach season. Starting in darker months is simply easier to live with.

After each visit, give sport, sauna and hot baths a 24–48 hour break, wear looser clothing that day, and moisturise. The result builds visit by visit: patchy regrowth first slows, then thins, and by mid-course the skin stays evenly smooth between sessions — the shaving routine simply never comes back.
