Laser hair removal dermatologist

from 10.07.2025

Whether armpits, legs or bikini line - anyone who is tired of constantly shaving or epilating can use advanced laser methods to ensure permanently smooth, hair-free skin. This is because the problem is tackled exactly where it arises: directly at the hair roots. Excessive or unwanted hair growth is stopped in the long term by the targeted, painless and skin-friendly sclerotherapy of the hair roots - a depilation that means you don't have to wait for the hair to grow back and start shaving or epilating again. But where can I have my hair permanently removed? Is laser hair removal recommended by a dermatologist or in a specialist center for permanent hair removal? We explain.

Which parts of the body can be treated with laser hair removal by a dermatologist?

For many people, removing unwanted hair growth is not just a matter of aesthetics, but also a noticeable relief in everyday life. Whether at a specialist center or dermatologist, laser hair removal can be performed on most areas of the body where unwanted body hair occurs. This includes the armpits, bikini line, legs, back, chest and face (e.g. removal of a lady's beard on the chin or upper lip). Even hard-to-reach or sensitive areas such as the genital area can be treated effectively with modern laser systems.

Laser hair removal technologies: dermatologist and specialist center

Combined devices in the dermatologist's practice

Various laser technologies are used to permanently remove unwanted hair. In dermatology practices, combination devices are often used that are not exclusively suitable for hair removal, but primarily for other dermatological treatments, such as removing the top layer of skin for scar treatment (ablative laser treatment) or for sclerosing spider veins. As the demand for laser hair removal from dermatologists is often lower, investing in state-of-the-art special lasers is not worthwhile for many doctors. The devices are therefore sometimes older or less specialized.

Special technology in the specialist center

Specialist centers that specialize exclusively in laser hair removal have an advantage here. They invest specifically in various modern laser systems that are optimally adapted to different hair and skin types. For example, simplyhairless uses four different technologies that have been developed specifically for hair removal. This allows individual needs to be optimally addressed and a particularly safe and effective result to be achieved.

Stop hair growth: Have body hair removed by professionals

Occasional hair removal by medical specialists

The dermatologist's practice focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases, skin cancer screening and other medical services. Laser treatment of unwanted hair growth is only an additional service and is often performed irregularly and less frequently. Dermatologists do not usually carry out the treatment themselves. Staff at the practice receive brief instructions and carry out the treatment as required.

Laser therapy by experienced, NiSV-certified experts

The simplyhairless team consists of experienced experts who do nothing else every day but take care of professional laser hair removal. The large number of treatments that are carried out every day is reflected in their immense experience. The simplyhairless specialist center is known for its specialization and high quality - both among our customers and dermatologists. Many dermatologists recommend treatment at our specialist center to their patients who wish to undergo hair removal with laser light.

Feeling good instead of hectic in the doctor's office

Everyone knows the often hectic everyday life in a doctor's surgery. Time is the most valuable commodity there. Occupancy of the treatment rooms is strictly limited and timed down to the minute. Laser hair removal at the dermatologist's is another way of tying up scarce resources.

At the simplyhairless specialist centers, we take time for the individuality of our customers. Before the treatment starts, the individual needs and requirements are discussed in a one-hour, free consultation. Each individual treatment begins with detailed health questions and ends with recommendations for the time until the next appointment. The treatment is accompanied by fresh towelling instead of fleece from the roll and, if desired, pleasant conversation or relaxing music in the background. One or more free check-up appointments round off the feel-good experience.

Laser hair removal at the dermatologist: How many sessions are necessary?

Several sessions are required to permanently remove all hair follicles. This is because the hairs are in different growth phases and laser hair removal only works on hairs in the active growth phase. How many sessions are ultimately necessary depends on your skin and hair type, as well as the area of the body being treated. As a rule, six to ten sessions are required to achieve permanent freedom from hair. Depending on the area of application, each session lasts from a few minutes to over an hour.
