What is body laser toning?
Body laser toning is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-energy laser pulses spread evenly over the skin. The energy targets excess pigment (melanin) and breaks it into smaller particles that the body clears over time, while gently stimulating the skin. It works on the same principle as facial laser toning, adapted for body areas.
At Egg Clinic, body laser toning is offered for the underarms, elbows, knees and ankles, areas where friction, shaving, dryness or inflammation commonly cause darkening. Because each session uses gentle settings, improvement builds gradually over a course rather than in one visit. For wider body brightening options, see our body whitening page.
Who is body laser toning for?
- Darkened underarms from shaving, waxing or friction
- Dark or rough-looking elbows and knees
- Darkening around the ankles
- Post-inflammatory marks after irritation or ingrown hairs
- People who want a gradual, low-downtime treatment
Treatment should wait if the skin is sunburnt, freshly tanned, irritated or infected, and during pregnancy. People prone to pigment changes or using photosensitising medicines should tell the doctor first. Darkening caused by an underlying condition, such as some hormonal issues, may also need medical assessment.

What results can you expect?
Most people notice the area looking brighter and more even after several sessions, with continued improvement across a course of around five to ten sessions spaced one to two weeks apart. There is usually no downtime, though mild redness can last a few hours. Because friction, shaving and sun exposure can bring pigment back, gentle hair removal, moisturising and sun protection help maintain results. Results vary between people and areas.
How the treatment works
-
Consultation
The doctor checks the area and the likely cause of darkening and sets the laser plan.
-
Preparation
The skin is cleansed; numbing is rarely needed because the settings are gentle.
-
Laser toning
The laser is passed evenly over the area for a few minutes per zone.
-
Aftercare
Apply moisturiser, avoid scrubbing, harsh deodorants and sun exposure for a day or two.
Tips for international patients
- Wear loose clothing to your appointment so the area stays comfortable afterwards.
- Avoid shaving or waxing the area on the day of treatment.
- If you are in Seoul for a short time, ask whether sessions can be scheduled weekly.
- Book through WhatsApp and mention which areas you would like treated.
