Man's back with the whole back highlighted for laser hair removal

How treatment works

Back hair is coarse and dark on most men, which is the kind of hair laser treats best. A whole back session takes about 45 minutes.

Packages that combine the back with shoulders and upper arms cost less than booking each area on its own.

Who it suits

  • Dark or medium back and shoulder hair
  • Men who get ingrown hairs or spots after waxing
  • Anyone tired of asking someone else to shave it

Laser works on hair that has pigment. Grey, white, red and very fine blonde hair usually does not respond; for those we offer The Smooth System.

Why clients choose Best Laser Room

  • One specialist, Irina, does every consultation, patch test and session, so the person who plans your course carries it out.
  • Alma Soprano Ice Platinum diode laser: three wavelengths in one handpiece and a built-in cooling tip that keeps the skin cool during treatment.
  • Prices published in full and taken from our booking system, with courses that include free sessions.
  • A private room on Royal Avenue, a short walk from Sloane Square.
  1. Free consultation and patch test15 minutes with Irina: your skin, your hair, your medical history and a few test pulses.
  2. Your plan and first sessionFrom 24 to 48 hours after the patch test. You get an honest view of how many sessions to expect.
  3. A session every 4 to 8 weeksTimed to your hair growth cycle. Most areas need 6 to 8 sessions, sometimes more for hormonal hair.

Before and after your session

Before

  • Shave the area the day before. Do not wax, pluck, thread or use epilators for 4 to 6 weeks beforehand, because the laser needs the hair root in place.
  • Avoid sunbathing, sunbeds and fake tan for 2 weeks before. Tell us if you have a holiday booked.
  • Come with clean skin: no deodorant, creams or make-up on the area.

After

  • Mild redness or warmth usually settles within a few hours.
  • For 24 to 48 hours skip hot baths, saunas, steam rooms and hard workouts.
  • Use SPF 30 or higher on exposed areas and keep shaving between sessions, never waxing.
  • Treated hairs shed over 1 to 3 weeks. This is normal, not regrowth.

Questions clients ask

I cannot shave my own back. What do I do?

Tell us when you book. We will trim and prepare the area at the start of the appointment.

How long before I see results?

Treated hairs shed within 1 to 3 weeks. Most men see much thinner regrowth after 3 sessions.

Can I go to the gym afterwards?

Wait 24 to 48 hours. Heat and sweat can irritate freshly treated skin.
