How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal directs laser light at the hair follicle. The pigment in the hair absorbs the light and turns it into heat, which damages the follicle's ability to grow new hair. Only hairs in the active growth phase respond at any one time, which is why a course of sessions is needed.
The result is long-term hair reduction rather than removal of every single hair: most people see much less, finer and lighter regrowth, and some occasional maintenance may be needed. At Egg Clinic, packages cover facial areas, hairlines and underarms for women and men, including single sessions, packs of 5 and a 1-year pass. Full prices are on our laser hair removal price list.
Who is a good candidate for laser hair removal?
- Women wanting to remove underarm, upper lip, chin or facial hair
- Men wanting to reduce beard density, sideburns or neck hair
- Anyone tired of shaving rash, ingrown hairs or waxing
- People wanting a neater hairline or widow's peak
- Dark hair, which responds most reliably
Very light blond, grey, white or red hair has little pigment and responds poorly to laser. Treatment should wait with a recent tan or sunburn, skin infection or during pregnancy. If you have a hormonal condition causing excess hair, regrowth may be more likely. The doctor will check suitability and adjust settings for your skin tone.

How many sessions do I need?
Most people notice less hair after the first few sessions, with a course of around five or more sessions usually needed for long-term reduction. Facial hair, especially in men or where hormones play a role, often needs more sessions than underarms. Sessions are typically spaced four to six weeks apart for the face and longer for the body, following the hair growth cycle. Results vary with hair colour, thickness, skin tone and hormones.
How the treatment works
-
Consultation
The doctor checks your skin type and hair and confirms the areas and package.
-
Preparation
Shave the area a day before; the skin is cleansed and cooling gel may be applied.
-
Laser treatment
The laser is passed over the area in quick pulses, often with built-in cooling.
-
Aftercare
Mild redness settles within hours. Avoid sun, saunas and exfoliating products for a day or two.
Tips for international patients
- Shave the area the day before, but avoid waxing or plucking for about four weeks beforehand.
- A 5-session pack or 1-year pass suits people who visit Seoul regularly.
- Avoid tanning before and after sessions to reduce the risk of pigment changes.
- Book on WhatsApp; small areas are quick, so they fit easily around other treatments.
Frequently asked questions
How much does laser hair removal cost at Egg Clinic?
Women's armpit, philtrum or chin is ₩15,000 per session, and men's armpit, philtrum or sideburns is ₩30,000 per session. Packs of 5 and 1-year passes are also listed.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
It gives long-term hair reduction rather than complete, lifelong removal. Most people have much less, finer regrowth, and occasional maintenance may be needed.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
It feels like quick snaps of a rubber band with warmth. Cooling helps, and small areas take only a few minutes.
How many sessions are needed?
Usually around five or more, spaced several weeks apart. Facial hair and men's beard areas often need more.
Should I shave before laser hair removal?
Yes, shave the day before. Do not wax, pluck or use epilators for several weeks before, because the laser needs the hair root in place.
Can men get laser hair removal at Egg Clinic?
Yes. There are men's packages for the beard area, philtrum and chin, sideburns, underarms and more.
