Laser Hair Removal for Legs
Stop fighting stubble on your shins. A course of sessions reduces leg hair long term, so you are not shaving twice a week.
Long-term reduction of unwanted hair, at our Mississauga and Waterloo medical spas. Free consultation with a nurse or beauty specialist.
Laser hair removal at Derma Secret is a medical-spa treatment that reduces unwanted hair long term on the face, legs, back, arms and underarms. We perform it at both of our Ontario clinics Mississauga, on Millcreek Drive near Meadowvale, and Waterloo, on Erb Street East.
In the treatment itself, the technician applies a cooling gel to protect your skin, then uses Diolaze™ by InMode, a laser hair removal system designed to target the hair follicle. Its integrated cooling technology helps support a more comfortable treatment experience. Laser hair removal works by targeting pigment in the follicle, which is why your skin tone and hair colour can affect your treatment plan and why the assessment comes first.
Reasons clients across Mississauga and Waterloo choose it:
Face, legs, back, arms and underarms each treated with settings matched to your skin and hair.
01
Legs
Stop fighting stubble on your shins. A course of sessions reduces leg hair long term, so you are not shaving twice a week.
02
Arms & Underarms
Smoother arms and underarms, without the regrowth cycle that waxing leaves you in.
03
Back
Back hair is awkward to reach and awkward to wax. Laser treats the whole area evenly, in sessions that take minutes.
04
Face
Facial hair is delicate work. We treat it at low, carefully set energy after assessing your skin tone at the consultation.
After you've completed your laser hair treatment, here are some tips for how to take care of your skin as it heals.
If you're using a scab-forming cream or gel, cleanse the treated area with warm water and mild soap before applying the cream or gel again. This will help to prevent infection and keep your skin healthy.
Avoid picking at scabs or irritation that forms around the area where you've had your laser hair treatment performed.
Avoid sun exposure on treated areas until healing has finished completely (usually about two weeks). Sun exposure can damage newly formed skin cells and cause scarring or discoloration of the area treated.
Laser hair removal suits people who are tired of how quickly body hair grows back and want to stop managing it week to week. If shaving, waxing or threading is not holding, it is worth an assessment.
It is not right for everyone. Certain skin and hair combinations respond poorly, and it is not advised during pregnancy.
That is what the free consultation is for we would rather tell you it is not the right treatment than sell you a course that will not work.
Hair grows in cycles, so results build over a course rather than appearing after one visit. Most clients see a noticeable reduction in regrowth within the first few sessions. The results below are our own clients', published with their consent.

Still unsure? Our team is happy to talk it through at your free consultation.
Laser hair removal does not hurt as much as you might think it would. The laser energy used during the procedure has been designed to target the dark pigments in your hair follicles, not your skin cells. However, if you are exposed to direct sunlight for too long after treatment, it could burn your skin slightly and cause redness like sunburn.
It would be ideal to avoid laser hair removal during pregnancy. While there are no known cases of adverse effects from laser hair removal on pregnant women, it's still better to be safe than sorry.
Laser hair removal does not last forever, but it lasts longer than shaving and waxing. After a series of treatments, most people see less hair growth. If you keep up with maintenance sessions every few months, you can maintain your results for a longer period of time.
Both of them. We perform laser hair removal at our Mississauga clinic (6981 Millcreek Drive, 2nd Floor, Unit 20) and at our Waterloo clinic (55 Erb Street East, Floor 1, Unit 113). The two clinics open on different days Mississauga on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, Waterloo on Thursday so check the hours for the location you want before you travel.
It depends on the treatment area and on how many sessions your skin and hair type will need, so we do not publish a single price. You get a firm quote at your free consultation, before you commit to anything.
It varies. Hair grows in cycles and a laser only affects follicles in the active phase, which is why the treatment is done as a course rather than a single visit. How many sessions you need depends on the area, your hair colour and your skin tone a nurse or beauty specialist assesses this at your free consultation and gives you a realistic number before you start.
Yes, and it is free. We assess your skin and hair type, confirm laser hair removal is the right treatment for you, and set out how many sessions to expect. There is no obligation to book afterwards.
The two clinics open on different days, so please check the hours for the location you want before you travel or call and we will book you into whichever clinic suits your schedule.
