Say goodbye to the routine of shaving and waxing with Reberry Clinic’s full-body laser hair removal in Seoul, using the Apogee+ 755nm Alexandrite laser. The laser light is absorbed by the melanin pigment in each hair shaft and follicle, converting to heat that disables actively growing follicles while a dynamic cooling system protects the surrounding skin.
Whether you want smoother legs, easier grooming or lasting hair reduction across larger areas, a course of 5 to 6 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart progressively reduces both the thickness and the density of hair. International patients are supported in English across the clinic’s three Seoul-area locations (Gangnam, Myeongdong, Incheon Airport).
Body laser hair removal uses focused laser light, absorbed by the pigment in each hair, to heat and disable active follicles for long-term hair reduction. At Reberry Clinic the 755nm Apogee+ system with built-in cooling treats legs, arms, underarms, bikini line and back over a course of 5 to 6 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart.
One-on-One guidance from a dedicated doctor, ensuring your skin is professionally monitored and treated from start to finish.
Fluent assistance in English, Japanese, and Chinese, making communication clear, respectful and comfortable for international patients.
Over 100,000 patients worldwide have received our personalized dermatological care, highlighting our expertise and reliable results.
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that delivers long-term reduction of unwanted hair by targeting the follicle with precise laser energy. Whether you are treating facial hair, legs, the bikini line, underarms or the back, it offers a lasting alternative that greatly reduces the need for shaving, waxing or plucking. The laser emits light that is absorbed by the melanin pigment in the hair; that energy converts to heat, which damages the follicle and inhibits future growth.
Because the laser works by targeting pigment, it has traditionally suited darker hair on lighter skin, but modern systems with integrated cooling now treat a wider range of skin tones and hair types safely. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser only disables follicles that are in their active growth phase, which is why a course of sessions is needed to catch follicles at different stages. Treatment is performed by the clinic’s doctors with English-speaking support for international patients on a short trip to Seoul.
Body laser hair removal at Reberry Clinic uses the Apogee+ platform, which operates primarily at the 755nm Alexandrite wavelength to deliver targeted, controlled energy directly to hair follicles. This wavelength is strongly absorbed by the melanin within the hair shaft and follicle, so the energy concentrates where it is needed and disables active follicles while sparing the surrounding skin.
A dynamic cooling mechanism cools the epidermis before and after each pulse, protecting the surface and keeping the treatment comfortable while reducing the risk of side effects. The controlled laser pulses also help maintain skin health and leave the treated area smoother. With a larger spot size, the system covers broad body zones such as the legs and back efficiently, so even large areas can be treated within a reasonable session time. Because hair grows in cycles, a course of 5 to 6 sessions ensures follicles are reached across different growth phases for progressive, lasting hair reduction.

Your body laser hair removal journey begins with a 60-minute consultation with the clinic’s doctor in Seoul. We carefully assess your skin type and hair colour, since these guide the laser settings, discuss the areas you want to treat and answer your questions about the process. By the end you receive a personalised treatment plan, including the recommended number of sessions and the right intervals for your hair-growth cycle.
A full body course usually consists of 5 to 6 sessions, each lasting from a few minutes for small areas up to an hour or more for large zones, spaced about 2 to 4 weeks apart to match the hair-growth cycle. Every session includes a gentle skin prep, the laser hair removal itself with cooling for comfort, and brief aftercare advice. The spacing lets the laser target follicles as they re-enter their active growth phase for steady progress.
You may begin to notice hair reduction after the first couple of sessions, as treated hairs shed and regrowth slows. Over the following several months your hair continues to thin and grow back more slowly as the laser disables follicles caught in their active growth phase across each session. The improvement is progressive, so density and thickness keep decreasing through the course.
To keep your skin smooth and hair-free, occasional maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months are recommended after your initial course. These help manage any new or hormonally driven hair growth and sustain your lasting results. Between sessions, avoiding sun exposure on treated areas and following your aftercare advice helps protect the skin and keep results looking their best.
The 755nm Alexandrite laser used in the Apogee+, the 1064nm Nd:YAG laser and IPL all reduce unwanted hair, but they differ in wavelength, ideal skin tone and precision.
| 755nm Alexandrite (Apogee+) | Nd:YAG (1064nm) | IPL | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Energy / mechanism | 755nm laser strongly absorbed by hair melanin | 1064nm laser, deeper penetration, less pigment absorption | Broad-spectrum pulsed light, less targeted |
| Best for | Lighter skin with darker hair; large body areas | Darker or tanned skin tones; coarse hair | Larger areas where precision is less critical |
| Pain / comfort | Brief tingling with integrated cooling | Can feel stronger; cooling helps | Generally mild warmth |
| Downtime | None; brief redness around follicles | None; brief redness | None; transient redness |
| Results timeline | Progressive over a 5-6 session course | Progressive over a multi-session course | Progressive, often needs more sessions |
| Longevity | Long-term reduction with maintenance | Long-term reduction with maintenance | Reduction that often needs more upkeep |
| Sessions | Usually 5-6, spaced 2-4 weeks apart | Usually 5-6 or more, similarly spaced | Often more sessions than a true laser |
Laser hair removal with the 755nm Alexandrite wavelength is supported by decades of peer-reviewed research, including studies in Asian and darker skin. In one prospective study using a 755nm Alexandrite laser with a large 30mm spot, hair-reduction improvements after five sessions ranged from 79.6% to 83.0% across body areas including the armpits (83.0%), bikini line (82.1%), legs (82.2%) and back (81.6%), with only transient skin reactions that resolved within a week. A controlled study of Asian patients with Fitzpatrick skin types III to V confirmed that cooled long-pulsed Alexandrite lasers can effectively treat Asian skin, with efficacy increasing across multiple treatments. Comparative work shows blended 755/1064nm energy can maintain efficacy while improving safety on darker or tanned skin, and a split-body trial reported that the long-pulsed 755nm laser reduced hair effectively with a favourable side-effect profile. A 12-month axillary study of 40 women documented sustained reduction after three sessions. These findings support a course-based approach with cooling for safe, lasting hair reduction, the population most commonly treated at our clinic.
Body laser hair removal uses focused laser light, absorbed by the melanin pigment in each hair, to heat and disable active follicles for long-term hair reduction. At Reberry Clinic the 755nm Apogee+ laser with cooling treats legs, arms, underarms, bikini line and back over a course of sessions. See our body laser hair removal page for details.
Classic candidates have darker hair on lighter skin, because the laser targets the pigment in the hair. However, modern systems with cooling, like the 755nm Apogee+, now treat a much wider range of skin tones and hair types safely. Very light, grey or red hair responds less well since it holds little pigment. A consultation confirms suitability for your skin and hair.
Body laser hair removal commonly treats the legs, arms, underarms, bikini line, back, chest and abdomen, as well as smaller spots like the upper lip when included. Larger areas such as full legs take longer per session, while small zones take only minutes. Your consultation maps the areas you want treated and estimates session times for your plan.
A body course usually involves 5 to 6 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, because the laser only disables follicles in their active growth phase, which is a fraction of your hair at any time. Spacing sessions catches more follicles as they cycle. The clinic’s doctor sets the exact number for your hair type and area at consultation.
Laser hair removal can feel uncomfortable but is usually milder than it sounds. Most patients describe a brief tingling, like tiny rubber bands snapping against the skin, and a pain level much lower than waxing. The Apogee+ has a built-in cooling system that cools the skin before and after each pulse, further reducing any discomfort throughout the session.
Yes. Reberry Clinic uses FDA-cleared Apogee+ devices, with every treatment performed by the clinic’s doctors and trained staff. The integrated dynamic cooling protects your skin and minimises discomfort, and side effects are rare when you follow the aftercare guidelines. A consultation reviews your skin type, hair and medical history first to set safe laser parameters for you.
Shave the treatment area about one day before your session so the laser energy targets the follicle rather than surface hair. Avoid waxing, plucking or hair-removal creams for several weeks beforehand, since the follicle must be intact. Avoid tanning and self-tanner before treatment, and on the day skip lotions, deodorants and makeup on the area to be treated.
There is essentially no downtime after body laser hair removal. Most people return to normal activities the same day. Mild redness or slight warmth around the follicles may appear and usually settles within a few hours. Avoiding sun, hot showers and strenuous sweat-inducing exercise for a day or two helps the skin calm and keeps the treated area comfortable.
Modern lasers with strong cooling treat a wide range of skin tones, including deeper Asian phototypes, more safely than older devices, though darker skin needs careful, conservative settings to protect the surface. The clinic’s doctor selects parameters and may run a test patch to confirm tolerance. A consultation reviews your skin type so treatment is matched safely to you.
Laser hair removal provides long-lasting hair reduction rather than a guaranteed once-and-done result. Many patients see most treated hair stay away long term, while some notice finer, lighter regrowth over time, often driven by hormones. Maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months help manage any new growth and keep treated areas smooth. Your results depend on hair type and area.
The 755nm Alexandrite laser used in the Apogee+ is well suited to lighter skin with darker hair, Nd:YAG (1064nm) penetrates deeper and is often preferred for darker skin, and IPL uses broad-spectrum light that is generally less targeted than a true laser. The clinic’s doctor selects the right approach for your skin and hair at consultation; here is how they compare.
Yes, with the right spacing. Laser hair removal is often planned around other skin treatments so the areas have time to settle between sessions. Because the hair laser targets follicles while treatments like dark spot removal address pigment or texture, the clinic’s doctor sequences them to avoid overlapping on the same skin. Your combined plan is tailored at consultation.
Yes. Shaving between sessions is fine and even encouraged, because it removes hair at the surface without disturbing the follicle that the laser targets. Avoid waxing, plucking, threading or epilating between sessions, since these remove the follicle the laser needs to reach. Stick to shaving so your next session works effectively on follicles re-entering their growth phase.
Session length depends on the area treated. Small spots like the upper lip take just a few minutes, while large areas such as full legs or the back can take an hour or more. The clinic confirms the exact time at your consultation once your treatment areas are mapped, so you can plan your visit, which suits patients on a short Seoul trip.
After treatment, keep the area clean, apply soothing moisturiser and daily sunscreen, and avoid sun exposure, hot showers, saunas and strenuous exercise for a day or two while the skin settles. Do not wax or pluck between sessions; shaving is fine. Treated hairs will shed over the following days. The clinic’s doctor gives tailored aftercare advice at each visit.
Because laser hair removal needs no downtime, a session fits easily around travel and sightseeing in Seoul. Since a full course runs over several months, many international patients complete one or two sessions here and continue at home, or time return visits. Reberry Clinic offers English-speaking support and three Seoul-area locations, including one at Incheon Airport.
