Leg laser hair removal in Munich

Lower legs, thighs or full legs?

Full legs costs less than both halves separately and takes one appointment instead of two. Feet and toes are not included in any option – they are a separate, short area and can easily be added on to the same appointment.

How long does a session on the legs take?

Lower legs about 30 minutes, thighs about 35, both together about 50 – together is quicker than separately, because preparation and follow-up only happen once. For men we allow more time in each case, because the area and the hair density are greater; hence the difference in price.

How does leg laser hair removal work?

You shave your legs the day before or on the morning of your appointment. At the studio we cleanse the skin, you get protective goggles, and the cooled handpiece is passed over the area several times – on the legs in strips, so that nothing is missed. You feel warmth and a slight tingling.

Over the following two to three weeks, the treated hairs gradually fall out. It looks like hair growing back, but it is the reverse process.

Why several sessions are needed

The laser only reaches hairs that are in their growth phase at that moment. At any given time that is only some of the hairs in an area, which is why the treatment is repeated every four to six weeks. For the legs, most people plan on 6 to 10 sessions. Later on, a touch-up every few months can make sense.

Is leg laser hair removal painful?

The legs are among the best-tolerated areas. The most sensitive spot is the shin, because the skin there lies directly on the bone; the inner thigh is also more sensitive than the rest. What you feel is a warm tingling, softened by the cooled handpiece.

Who the treatment is suitable for – and who it is not

Well suited to dark, coarse hair. Not effective, or only partly effective, on light blonde, red, grey or white hair. We do not treat if you are taking photosensitising medication, have light-induced dermatoses, an acute skin condition or a fresh tan in the area, or during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Moles are left out.

Preparation and aftercare

The device: Alma Soprano ICE Platinum

Three wavelengths at once from a single handpiece – 755, 810 and 1064 nm – plus contact cooling that keeps the skin surface at around 25 °C during the treatment. The handpiece is glided over the skin instead of being placed pulse by pulse. How this works in detail is explained on the device page.

MOOD Beauty on Theresienstraße

We are a studio in Munich’s Maxvorstadt, a few minutes from the university and Königsplatz. Besides laser hair removal, we work with permanent make-up, nails, lashes, facials and massage – many of our clients come to us regularly anyway and have the laser treatment in the same appointment.

Laser treatments take place in a separate room of their own. We give appointments one at a time, with no waiting-room bustle and no sales pitch: you get an honest assessment of how many sessions your area is likely to need – even if the answer is that the treatment is not worth it for your hair type.

Theresienstraße 38, 80333 München

¹ Permanent hair reduction requires several treatments, depending on the body area and the individual hair and skin type. Success cannot be guaranteed, even when the treatment is carried out professionally. On light, red, grey or white hair, the treatment is ineffective or only partially effective.
