Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic's Glass Skin Vellus Hair Removal: Key Differentiators

1. It's not just about removing vellus hair; it's a treatment that perfects your skin's appearance.

Vellus hair is fine and not always noticeable, but

it's a primary culprit in making foundation look cakey and dulling your skin texture.

Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic's vellus hair removal

is not just simple hair removal; it's a process that creates 'glass skin' for makeup to adhere beautifully.

2. Immediate reaction: Hair burns or breaks off and disappears when the laser is applied.

When vellus hair is properly targeted by the laser,

due to thermal denaturation, the hair immediately burns or breaks off, revealing smoother skin right after the treatment.

This means you can immediately feel your makeup 'sticking' better even after just one session,

and after about 5 repeated sessions, hair generally stops growing or grows back very slowly,

transforming your skin into a 'maintained skin' condition where makeup consistently applies beautifully.

3. Safe settings specifically for the face, without pigmentation or folliculitis.

755nm Alexandrite + customized power adjustment for the face

Stable hair removal with controlled cooling + pulse speed + depth

→ Laser settings safe even for those with sensitive skin

5. Immediate smoothness → With repeated sessions, skin texture and light reflection will change.

Even with just one session, you can experience improved makeup application and skin texture.

After 5 or more cumulative sessions, the angle of light reflection changes,

creating a 'glow' and transparency as if light has risen to the skin's surface.

Thereafter, with maintenance treatments every 2-3 months,

you can always maintain a refined and smooth skin condition.

Why should vellus hair removal be done with a 'laser'?

Vellus hair is fine and has a low melanin content, making it difficult to remove effectively with common methods (shaving, waxing, etc.). Furthermore, these methods only treat the skin surface, causing hair to regrow quickly and increasing the risk of skin troubles or folliculitis due to repeated irritation.​

In contrast, laser hair removal uses specific wavelengths of light that are absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicles, generating thermal energy. This energy destroys the hair follicles, inhibiting hair regrowth. For vellus hair removal on sensitive areas like the face, short-wavelength lasers (e.g., Alexandrite laser) are ideal as they minimize skin damage.

Apogee+ uses a 755nm Alexandrite wavelength, which has a high absorption rate for melanin, allowing for effective removal of even light and fine vellus hair.

Moreover, its powerful cooling system minimizes skin irritation while precisely delivering energy only to the hair, ensuring a safe treatment.

Treatment Process

• Optional Anesthetic Cream (if needed): Depending on your skin condition, an anesthetic cream can be used to minimize discomfort.
• Laser Application: The laser quickly treats a wide area with optimal intensity, removing fine hairs without heat accumulation.
• Cooling and Soothing: Continuous cooling during the treatment soothes the skin and minimizes irritation.​

Treatment Cycle

Hair goes through cycles of growth, regression, and rest, and laser hair removal is most effective on hair in the growth phase.

Therefore, we recommend 5 or more sessions at 3-4 week intervals, followed by maintenance treatments approximately once every 3 months to sustain the effects.
