Laser Hair Removal For Transgender Clients
Top Laser Hair Removal Clinic in Leicester
At City Laser Clinic in Leicester, we understand the unique requirements of transgender and transexual clients when it comes to laser hair removal. Whether you’re preparing for gender confirmation surgery, seeking smoother skin for extra confidence, or looking for long-term hair reduction, our experts provide discreet, personalised treatments in a safe and inclusive environment.
To get started, please book a complimentary consultation by calling 0116 242 5299 or book online. Together we will discuss your skin and hair type, as well as any health concerns you may have. We want you to feel as comfortable and confident as possible.

Why Choose Laser Hair Removal At City Laser?
Laser hair removal offers a highly effective, long-term solution for reducing or permanently removing unwanted hair. Unlike shaving or waxing, which can irritate the skin and cause ingrown hairs, laser technology targets the hair follicle directly — slowing regrowth and leaving skin smoother over time. At City Laser Salon in Leicester we:
- Use advanced Gentle Pro Series lasers, suitable for all skin tones and hair types.
- Offer tailored treatment plans based on your transition goals, skin type, and any medical considerations.
- Provide a safe, judgement-free space where you can feel comfortable and supported.
- Use Dynamic Cooling Technology to enhance comfort during every session.
What To Expect From Your Treatment At City Laser Clinic
Throughout your time at City Laser & Skin Clinic we will always make you feel comfortable and at ease.
Your laser hair removal journey will start with a personal consultation, where our experienced technician will discuss your goals, assess your skin and hair type, and create a customised treatment plan. We will also carry out a laser patch test to make sure you are suitable for treatment.
During treatment, the laser emits pulses of light energy, which are absorbed by the pigment in the hair. This damages the follicle, reducing future growth. Most clients describe the sensation as feeling like an elastic band snap against the skin.
Following your session, you may experience slight redness, swelling, or raised hair follicles — all of which usually subside within a few hours. With each session, hair becomes finer and regrowth slows, revealing smoother skin and greater confidence.

Transgender Laser Hair Removal FAQs
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe And Effective For Transgender Individuals?
«Yes, laser hair removal is safe and effective for all genders, including transgender clients. Whether you’re preparing for gender-affirming surgery, reducing facial or body hair, or simply want a smoother, softer look, our laser treatments can be customised to your individual needs.
What Areas Can Be Treated For Transgender Clients?
«Popular areas for transgender individuals include the face, neck, chest, back, arms, legs, and genital areas. Your laser technician will discuss your hair removal goals and any areas you’d like to focus on before your treatment begins, to ensure you feel completely comfortable during your sessions.
Can Laser Help To Reduce Facial Hair For Trans Women?
«Yes, Laser hair removal is a highly effective option for reducing or eliminating facial hair, leaving the face area smooth and soft. However, facial hair may require more sessions than body hair due to its density, as well as other hormonal factors.
Will I Need More Laser Sessions If I’m On Hormone Therapy?
«Hormone therapy (such as oestrogen for trans women and testosterone for trans men) can influence or change hair growth patterns. At City Laser, our professional technicians will take your hormonal status into account when designing your treatment plan. Some clients may need more sessions than others, and you may have to come in for maintenance touch ups, depending on how your hair regrows after treatment.
Can Laser Hair Removal Help With Pre-Surgical Hair Removal For Gender-Affirming Surgery?
«Yes, for transgender individuals preparing for a vaginoplasty, phalloplasty or other gender-affirming surgeries, laser hair removal can be done to clear the surgical site of hair, which is often required by surgeons. We can work with you to ensure the necessary areas are treated according to your surgeon’s guidelines.
Is Laser Hair Removal Painful For Sensitive Areas?
«Some areas, particularly the face, chest, and genital regions, can be more sensitive than others. Most clients describe the sensation as a pinching or snapping feeling, which subsides as soon as the laser pulses stop. However, we offer cooling technology and numbing options to ensure comfort during treatment.
Do You Offer A Safe, Private Space For Transgender Clients?
«Yes, at City Laser, we strive to provide a respectful, confidential and inclusive experience for all clients. Our expert team is trained to work with transgender individuals and will ensure you feel comfortable throughout the treatment process.
Does Laser Hair Removal Work On All Skin Tones?
«Yes, we use only the finest Gentle Pro laser technology, which can safely and effectively treat all skin tones, as well as remove hair of all types and levels of coarseness. During your consultation, we’ll choose the best laser treatment to match your skin and hair.
