Before the first session — a free skin test

It takes 15 minutes: the therapist checks your skin tone and hair and chooses the laser and the power.

If you didn't manage to shave

We do it at the studio, free, with a disposable razor — it's part of the treatment. If you're already shaved, we skip that step.

During the session

Nearly painless. Modern cooling makes it far more comfortable than waxing — most clients describe a warm snap. Bikini and upper lip are the most sensitive areas; tell the therapist and she will adjust the power.

Two or three areas in one visit

Most people book more than one area at a time; two areas are simply two lines on the bill — bikini line and under arms together are 40 minutes and 700.000 IDR, Brazilian and under arms 60 minutes and 1.200.000 IDR.

Price: per session and per course

Prices are per session, and the package is optional.

How the −25 % works. Five or more treatments paid in one bill — any areas, any mix — and the 25 % discount applies to the whole bill, not to the first five. An under-arm course qualifies from the fifth session; several areas in one visit, paid together, count too.

No deposit to book; packages are prepaid. Prepaid treatments never expire. Unused treatments are refunded at the price you actually paid; we never take the discount back. Example: 8 under-arm sessions prepaid for 2.400.000 IDR — 300.000 each. You used 3; the other 5 come back: 1.500.000 IDR.

For men under arms is on the men's price list at the same price and the same time — 400.000 IDR, 20 minutes.

How it compares to what you're doing now

Hair pulled out by the root. Wax, sugaring, threading and epilators take the root with them, and the laser is then aiming at an empty follicle. Ideally give it 10 days before your first session. If you waxed more recently, come anyway — the laser will simply work less well, and you will still see a result.

Razor, wax, epilator and laser — how long the skin stays smooth, and ingrown hairs
 Smooth forIngrown hairs
Razor1–3 daysCommon
Wax, sugaring2–4 weeksCommon
Epilator2–3 weeksCommon
LaserBuilds up over a courseRare after a course

A razor is a different story. Shaving cuts the hair above the skin and leaves the follicle where it is, so shave as often as you like.

Tanned or darker skin: the Nd:YAG

We run three laser types — Alexandrite 755 nm, Diode 808 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm.

YAG is designed for tanned and darker skin, which is why we can treat safely in Bali all year. With a fresh tan we use YAG — it doesn't react to melanin, so it's safe even right after the beach. Which laser you get is decided at the free skin test.

Fresh sunburn is the exception: we won't treat over it, because it would hurt.

And the laser doesn't change the price: one price per area, whatever your skin tone. More about tanned and darker skin →

Before and after your session

Only one rule is hard; the rest make the session work better.

Before and after your session — when, what
14 days beforeStart SPF30+ on any treated area that sees sunideally
10 days beforeStop wax, sugaring and bleaching. Razor only from hereideally
2 days beforeShave with a razorideally
Before the sessionNo scrubs on the treatment areas — they damage the skinideally
Same dayNo alcohol-based spray deodorant for the rest of the day; other deodorants are fine
First days afterNo beach, no sunbathing on treated areas. This is the one rule we won't bend, because sun on freshly treated skin burns fasterstrictly
Days 2–3 afterWait this long before shaving again. After that, shave as often as you likeideally
Days 5–10 afterTreated hair falls away on its own. Don't pull it
First 14 days afterSPF30+ and moisturizer on sun-exposed treated areasideally

Two ingredients to keep off the treated areas after a session: retinol and glycolic acid. Use moisturizing and soothing creams instead.

If the calendar didn't work out. Waxed more recently than 10 days ago? We'll still treat you; the laser just works less well, because wax takes the root out and the laser needs it in place — and you'll still see a result. Pregnancy and breastfeeding are the exception: we don't treat, and we'll say so straight away.

How many sessions, and what to expect

A single session already counts: about 10–15 % less hair after each one. Lasting smoothness is a course — usually 8–10 sessions, the first 5 spaced 5–6 weeks apart, because that catches each new batch of hair while it's still in its growth phase. Around sessions 8–10 what's left is fine and sparse.

Lasting reduction, not permanent removal. We don't promise a 100 % result. After the course roughly 10 % of the hair keeps growing, and new follicles appear over time, so most people come back for a single session every 4–5 months. For some, the hair doesn't come back at all — it depends on your skin, and it's very individual.

Nobody finishes a course on a two-week trip, and you don't have to: the treatments don't expire, and whatever you haven't used is refunded at the price you paid.

Quick answers

How much is underarm laser hair removal in Bali?

At our studio in Seminyak, 400.000 IDR per session, 20 minutes. Five or more prepaid treatments in one bill take 25 % off: 5 sessions are 1.500.000 IDR, 8 sessions 2.400.000 — 300.000 per session.

How many sessions will under arms need?

Usually 8–10, spaced 5–6 weeks apart at the start. You will see 10–15 % less hair after each one. Hormones, area and hair colour all shift the number — the therapist gives you a realistic estimate at the free skin test.

Does it hurt under the arms?

Nearly painless. Modern cooling makes it far more comfortable than waxing — most clients describe a warm snap. Bikini and upper lip are the most sensitive areas; tell the therapist and she will adjust.

Can I shave between sessions?

Yes. Shaving cuts the hair above the skin and leaves the follicle where it is, so shave as often as you like — just wait 2–3 days after a session before shaving again. Treated hair falls out within 5–10 days; don't pull it.

Can I use deodorant after the session?

Yes — just not an alcohol-based spray on the day of the session. Other deodorants are fine.

I am in Bali for two weeks — is it worth starting?

Yes. A full course is 8–10 sessions, one every 5–6 weeks, so nobody finishes it in two weeks — and you do not have to. One or two sessions already give about 10–15 % less hair per session. Prepaid treatments never expire: start now, finish next season.
