Constantly shaving or waxing your legs can be a daunting task. If you want an easier and more permanent solution to hair removal, a Laser Hair Removal (LHR) treatment is a great option to consider. It is a safe and effective way to eliminate unwanted hair on the legs and other body parts while making the skin smooth and silky.
In this blog, Laser Clinics New Zealand will discuss how laser hair removal works and the different treatment areas for the leg to help you understand which treatment is best for you.
How does Leg Laser Hair Removal work?
A Laser Hair Removal works by directing the concentrated light to target your leg’s hair follicles at the root. The laser inhibits hair growth without damaging the skin’s surface, which is why it is advisable for people with sensitive skin. It provides a long-term result and is cost-effective as it reduces the need for frequent hair removal sessions.
LHR Different Leg Treatment Areas
Quarter Leg Treatment
The quarter (¼) leg treatment includes a smaller leg area, such as the knee, upper thigh, or ankle. This option is perfect for those who only want to target a specific area of the leg. The treatment time for a quarter leg session typically takes between 10 and 15 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
Half-Leg Treatment
The half-leg (½) treatment includes either the upper or lower half of the leg, from the ankle up to the knee or up to the thigh. This option is perfect for those who prefer to have only a portion of their leg treated. Depending on the size of the treatment area, A half-leg session usually takes between 15 and 30 minutes.
Full Leg Treatment
The full leg treatment includes both the upper and lower parts of the leg, from the ankle up to the thigh. This option is perfect for those who want their entire leg to be hair-free. The treatment time for a full leg session typically takes between 45 and 60 minutes.
