How is the back treated?

You lie prone on an abdominal pillow. The full back typically completes in one session, around 20-30 minutes.

Athletes worry about folliculitis from sweat — how does treatment affect this?

Avoid sauna and intense exercise for 24 hours. Afterward, deactivated follicles actually reduce the risk of sweat/friction-induced folliculitis.

Will chest hair return if I remove it completely?

Laser yields long-term reduction; most results are maintained. You can opt for complete removal or a natural thinning level.

Arm hair bothers me at shirt cuffs

Forearm hair removal is popular with professional men beyond summer needs. Clear reduction after 4-6 sessions.

How long does treatment take?

Full upper body (chest, abdomen, back, arms) takes 60-90 min; area-specific treatments run ~30 min.

Are male-only rooms available?

Yes — we provide male specialist staff and private rooms on request at booking.

What is Apogee Plus Male Upper Body Hair Removal?

The male upper body — chest, abdomen, back, arms, underarms — carries dark hair in high-exposure and hygiene-sensitive zones. Apogee Plus 755nm Alexandrite efficiently reduces coarse hair for a cleaner upper-body line.

How it works

The 755nm wavelength is selectively absorbed by follicular melanin to deactivate the dermal papilla. High-energy modes suit coarse male hair; dual cooling ensures skin safety.

Area-by-area care

Chest/abdomen: key zone for swimwear/summer
Full back: impossible to self-treat, needs professional care
Full arm (upper, lower, hand): visible under shirt cuffs
Underarms: hygiene and odor management
Shoulders/clavicle: for sports and fitness
