Average Cost of Laser Hair Removal for Different Body Areas in the UK

Laser hair removal is a popular option for long-term hair reduction. If you're considering laser hair removal, understanding the costs for different body areas is crucial for budgeting. In this guide, we’ll break down the average costs of laser hair removal in the UKby body area, factors that affect pricing, and tips on how to save.

What Determines the Cost of Laser Hair Removal?

The cost of laser hair removal varies based on several factors:

• Treatment Area: Larger areas like legs or back are generally more expensive than smaller areas such as the upper lip or underarms.
• Number of Sessions: Your practitioner will advise how many sessions you need.
• Clinic Location: Clinics in major cities or premium locations tend to charge higher rates.
• Laser Technology: Laser technology designed for specific skin tones or hair types may affect pricing.

Pro Tip: It’s often more cost-effective to purchase a package deal rather than paying per session, especially for larger treatment areas.

What clinics list in the UK, as of 5 November 2026

There is no official UK average for laser hair removal. The ranges in the table further down this page were not sourced, so treat them as indicative only. The figures below are what a sample of UK clinics list on their own sites, so they show the spread rather than an average.

Across the clinics compared, a single session for a small area such as the upper lip or underarms is listed from roughly £10 to £50. A full-legs session is listed from about £95 to £200, and full-body sessions run from about £163 to £665 depending on whether the face is included. A low figure is not always comparable with a high one, as the next section explains.

Area	Lowest listed (single session)	Highest listed (single session)	Where the figures come from
Underarms	£10	£50	Clinic websites (see sources)
Upper lip or chin	£19	£45	Clinic websites
Brazilian or Hollywood	£60	£114	Clinic websites
Chest	£79	£99	Clinic websites
Full legs	£95	£200	Clinic websites
Full body	£163 (face excluded)	£665 (face included)	Clinic websites

Two of the sources are worth naming. CoLaz's UK price page lists "from" prices of £24 for underarms, £30 for upper lip or chin, £99 for chest, £150 for full legs and £225 for full body, and says prices may vary slightly by clinic. A January 2026 roundup of ten clinic websites published by Ulike, which sells at-home IPL devices, reports a wider spread, for example full legs from £95 to £200. That roundup repeats what each clinic says about itself and contains internal inconsistencies, so it was used only for figures that its own tables support. Neither source states how it was checked.

Progen Aesthetics lists its own fees by area on the prices page and in its booking portal, which was last checked on 9 October 2026. Confirm the current figure with the clinic before you pay. For a Bournemouth breakdown, see how much laser hair removal costs in Bournemouth.

Why published prices differ so much

• "From" prices. A headline "from £24" usually describes the smallest or cheapest version of an area, not the area you have in mind. CoLaz, for example, lists separate prices for lower legs (from £99) and full legs (from £150).
• What counts as an area. Underarms, bikini line, Brazilian and Hollywood are named differently from clinic to clinic. Ask exactly what is included.
• Single session versus course. Some clinics show a per-session price on a course, some show the course total, and some show only the single fee. In the Ulike roundup, one clinic lists its six-session price per session while others list the whole course total.
• Course discounts vary. One clinic in that roundup lists a 20% reduction for six sessions, while Progen's courses are listed as six sessions for the price of five. The saving only applies if you use every session.
• Technology and who treats you. Prices differ by device, practitioner and location, which is one reason a regional or London clinic may list higher or lower figures than Bournemouth.

How many sessions to budget for

The American Academy of Dermatology says most patients need 2 to 6 laser treatments, usually about 4 to 6 weeks apart, and that some need occasional maintenance. Some UK clinics describe six to eight sessions, and CoLaz says coarser hair, hormonal growth or larger areas may need eight or more. None of these is a promise for your hair and skin. Your practitioner will confirm the number of sessions to plan for after an assessment, so a single-session price alone does not tell you the cost of a course.

A checklist for comparing two quotes

1. Compare the same named area and ask what it includes.
2. Ask whether the price is a single session, a per-session price on a course, or the course total.
3. Ask whether the figure is a "from" price that rises for your skin, hair or area.
4. Ask whether a consultation or patch test is included and whether it is charged.
5. Ask what happens to unused sessions and what any further session would cost.
6. Get the areas, number of appointments and total in writing.

The NHS advises not paying for a procedure until you have had a consultation with the person who will carry it out, asking what it will cost and whether further treatment would cost extra, and avoiding treatment vouchers sold on group-discount sites.

Frequently asked questions

What is the average cost of laser hair removal in the UK?

There is no official UK average. Clinic websites checked on 5 November 2026 list small areas such as underarms or upper lip from about £10 to £50 a session and full legs from about £95 to £200, with wide variation between clinics. Compare the same named area and confirm the price in writing.

Why are some laser hair removal prices so much lower than others?

Low headline prices are often "from" prices for the smallest version of an area, a per-session figure on a long course, or a promotion. Ask what the area includes and whether the figure is a single session or part of a course.

Is a course of laser hair removal cheaper than paying per session?

Usually clinics discount courses, but the saving varies and only applies if you use all the sessions. Progen's listed courses are six sessions for the price of five; confirm current terms and what happens to unused sessions.

How many sessions of laser hair removal will I need?

The American Academy of Dermatology says most patients need 2 to 6 treatments about 4 to 6 weeks apart, and some need maintenance. Some UK clinics describe six to eight. Your practitioner will confirm a plan after assessing your hair, skin and area.
