Laser hair removal — back
The back — the hardest area to deal with yourself, and one where hair and back acne often go together.
Benefits
Targets hair follicles that are in their active growth phase.
Less need to deal with regrowth every few days.
With no more close shaving, fewer hairs curl back under the skin.
When is Laser hair removal — back a good fit?
Very hard to shave yourself — you almost always need someone to help.
Red bumps along the back.
You'd like a neat, tidy back.
Let CHAMING know in advance if: the skin in the area is sunburnt, has an open wound, or is inflamed or infected; you have recently waxed or plucked the area (it's best to let the hair grow back first); you are taking medication that makes your skin sensitive to light, or oral acne medication; or you are pregnant. If you have a skin condition, please see a dermatologist first.
What happens in a session?
- Checking the area
Your therapist checks the hair and skin on your back, paying particular attention to any spots or inflamed follicles. If your back acne is very inflamed, CHAMING will advise you to deal with the skin first before hair removal.
- Cleansing and shaving the back
You lie face down while your therapist cleanses, dries and shaves your entire back before treatment.
- Treating the whole back
Your therapist moves the cooled handpiece across your whole back, including the spots you find hard to reach yourself. If any area feels sensitive, just say so and your therapist will adjust the energy level.
- Soothing the skin on your back
Your therapist soothes the treated area of your back before you put your top back on.
- Aftercare advice and your next appointment
Your therapist explains how to care for your back at home and books your next session, as hair grows in cycles and needs a full course.
Aftercare
For the first 2 hours after your session: don't shower yet, and keep your back dry.
For the first 24 hours: don't apply shower gel, lotion or body moisturiser to the treated area of your back.
Throughout the course: never shave, wax, pluck or use hair removal cream on your back at home, as this can easily cause inflammation, infection or irritation. CHAMING will shave the treatment area for you at every session. Come to your next appointment as scheduled to get the best results from your course.
If your skin reacts or anything doesn't feel right, message us on WhatsApp or call +84 925 055 555 so CHAMING can help promptly.
Frequently asked questions
How many sessions will I need?
Hair grows in cycles, so each session can only reach the follicles that are in their active growth phase — which is why the treatment is done as a course, with sessions a few weeks apart. The exact number of sessions depends on the area, your body and how thick the hair is; CHAMING will discuss this after seeing the area in person.
Does it hurt?
Most people describe it as a light flick of a rubber band. Thinner skin is more sensitive; just say so straight away and your therapist will adjust the energy level.
How should I prepare for a session?
You don't need to shave yourself: your CHAMING therapist will cleanse and shave the treatment area right before the session. Beforehand, simply avoid waxing, plucking, or applying cream or deodorant to the area, and stay out of the sun for a few days.
Can I have a session if I have back acne?
If your back acne is very inflamed, it's best to deal with the skin first. Just come in so CHAMING can see it in person and advise on the right order.
