laser leg hair removal

Laser leg hair removal is one of the most demanded procedures of hardware cosmetology. In just a few sessions, it allows you to get rid of unwanted hair and forget about daily shaving, sugaring, and other painful procedures.

At Oxford Medical, laser hair removal is performed with the help of the American Candela GentleMax Pro device, which combines alexandrite and diode lasers. Due to their complex effect, the device removes even the darkest and coarsest hair in 8-10 sessions. Moreover, the procedures pass comfortably and painlessly thanks to the dynamic cooling system

Laser hair removal is performed in the following areas:

• legs completely;
• shins;
• hips;
• knees;
• toes;
• the outside of the foot.

During the appointment, the specialist first evaluates the hairline thickness and the skin type to choose the correct settings for the device. After that, the beautician applies a gel to the skin, ensuring better penetration of laser beams into the follicles. Next, the doctor puts on tinted glasses and gives the same to the patient to protect the eyes from light flashes.

After finishing the preparation, the specialist consistently processes the necessary skin area with a laser. At this time, the patient feels only a slight warmth and occasionally a slight tingling.

After the procedure, the doctor removes the remnants of the gel and applies a soothing cream to the skin.

After a session of laser hair removal, it is recommended:

• For 2-3 days, do not visit saunas, swimming pools, and also do not take a hot bath;
• For 2-3 days, do not massage the legs or perform a strenuous exercise;
• Do not sunbathe for 2 weeks and apply sunscreen on your feet during the warmer months.

Two weeks after the first session, up to 30% of the hair on the legs falls out. Complete removal requires 8 to 10 procedures on the Candela GentleMax Pro device. With other devices, the epilation course may be longer.

After all the procedures, the hair stops growing ultimately. It is recommended to carry out a prophylactic session once a year to maintain the effect.
