Body Hair Removal

Careful, area-by-area care, even for large body areas.

About Procedure

About Body Hair Removal

Body hair removal manages hair on the underarms, arms, legs, backs of hands and tops of feet, chest, abdomen and back with a laser. Laser energy is absorbed by the melanin in hair and works by causing heat damage to the follicle; because it mainly acts on hair in the growth phase, repeated sessions are needed.

We choose the device that suits your skin tone and hair thickness between GentleMax and Apogee Elite+, both 755 nm alexandrite lasers, to treat even large areas efficiently. Arms and legs can be treated partially or in full, and for men there is also a full-body option covering the underarms, arms, legs and Brazilian area together.

At 3Leaf Clover Clinic, we adjust the energy for each area considering the differences between women's and men's hair, and we also perform hair removal on the back of the neck, shoulders and upper back for those preparing for a wedding. The number of sessions needed and the results may vary depending on individual hair condition.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How is the laser intensity set?

Setting the laser intensity too high can cause burns. At 3Leaf Clover Clinic, we check your skin tone and hair thickness and set the energy only within a safe range.

Q. How do GentleMax and Apogee Elite+ differ?

Both use the 755 nm alexandrite wavelength. GentleMax uses gas cooling (DCD), spraying cooling gas onto the skin just before each pulse, so it delivers energy more efficiently than Apogee Elite+, with better results and less pain. We recommend the suitable device after checking your skin tone and hair thickness.

Q. Are the tops of the feet included in full legs?

Full legs do not include the tops of the feet and toes, and full arms do not include the backs of the hands and fingers. You can add them as separate areas if needed.

Q. Does hair fall out right after treatment?

In many cases, hair gradually sheds over 1–3 weeks after treatment. It is best not to pull it out but to let it fall out naturally.

Q. When should I start wedding hair removal?

10 or more sessions at 3–4 week intervals take time, so we recommend starting 10 months to 1 year before the wedding.

Q. How long does full-body hair removal take?

Treating the underarms, full arms, full legs and Brazilian area together takes about 1 hour, excluding numbing time. It may vary depending on the amount of hair.

Q. Do I have to shave before treatment?

If hair is long, laser heat may be absorbed at the skin surface and increase discomfort, so it is best to trim it short with a razor the day before or on the day of treatment.

Q. Can I just thin out the hair instead of removing it all?

Energy and the number of sessions can be adjusted to reduce the amount of hair. Results vary depending on individual hair condition.
