Leg Hair Removal

Like it or not, smooth and silky legs have become totems of femininity in this country; for most women, hair removal is necessary to achieve this look.

A hot wax treatment is a popular method used to achieve the gleaming, hairless look. It does come with one big drawback, however: For waxing to be effective, there must be some new growth. As such, women who wax their legs must be willing to allow their leg hair to grow out to one-half inch to accommodate the process. For some women, this is simply not acceptable.

Professional Laser Treatments for Leg-Hair Removal

Professional laser treatments are becoming more and more popular with women seeking a more permanent solution when it comes to removing unwanted leg hair. One thing to keep in mind with this treatment is that hair grows in three cycles. Each cycle will need to be subjected to laser therapy if the desired result is to be achieved.

The way in which laser therapy works is quite simple. A laser's light is applied to the follicles that are to be removed. The heat of the light serves to damage or destroy the follicles, effectively stunting or preventing future hair growth.

Many different types of lasers are available when seeking this treatment, including:

  • Harmony
  • Soprano
  • PPX
  • Elite
  • Palomar
