Why men choose laser back hair removal.

Confidence:
A UK study by YouGov found that 62% of people found back hair unattractive.

Hygiene:
Body hair can trap moisture, leading to odour and irritation.

Laser hair removal is ideal for men who are tired of the constant grooming required to maintain a hair-free back, offering more permanent results* with minimal upkeep.

Why shaving and waxing don't cut it.

Shaving:
Temporary results, with potential for irritation and ingrown hairs.

Waxing:
Painful and expensive—while results last longer than shaving, some hair growth is required before treatment, which can be inconvenient.

How laser back hair removal works.

Laser hair removal works by targeting the melanin in the hair follicle. The laser's energy is absorbed by the pigment, converting it to heat, which then disables the follicle to prevent future hair growth.

Safe areas to treat with laser.

The entire back, including shoulders, can be treated with an at-home laser hair removal device such as the Tria 4X Hair Removal Laser. However, moles, tattoos, or broken skin should be avoided.

A full list of treatable areas is available on the more detailed Tria Topics: Laser Hair Removal For Men, available at the link below.

Suitability for laser hair removal device

Best candidates for laser back hair removal.

Skin Tone: At-home laser hair removal is only suitable for those with fair to medium skin tones (I to IV on the Fitzpatrick Scale). This is due to the laser targeting melanin, which is also present in the skin, therefore making it unsafe for darker skin tones.

Hair Colour: Effective on most light brown to black body hair. Ineffective for blonde, red, grey or white hair.

What to expect: laser back hair removal process.

For optimal results:
Begin with 1 treatment every 2 weeks for 12 weeks. Then top up only as required.

Noticeable hair reduction can be seen in as little as 2 treatments, with more noticeable results after each treatment from then on and up to 100% hair removal after just 8 treatments. Results can vary based on hair thickness, colour and density.

Does laser hair removal on the back hurt?

Higher powered devices and settings produce a stronger sensation, which some users liken to a rubber band snapping against the skin. While lower settings are available for user comfort, higher settings are recommended for optimal results.

Using the Phytograph Hydrating Calm Soothing Gel with your Tria 4X Hair Removal Laser will help reduce these sensations and add a boost of cooling moisture.

Laser back hair removal aftercare tips.

Do:
Apply Phytograph Hydrating Calm Soothing Gel to reduce redness and soothe skin. Stick to gentle, fragrance-free products.

Don’t:
Expose the skin to sunlight, overly hot showers, or intense workouts for 24-48 hours.

Tips for back treatments.

  • Seek assistance: Use a mirror or ask a friend or partner to help with hard-to-reach areas.
  • Work in sections: Treat small areas at a time and track progress.
  • Prepare your skin: Use on freshly shaved, clean skin.
  • Soothe your skin: Apply Phytograph Hydrating Calm Soothing Gel before and after treatments.

Is Tria 4X right for you?

Does it work on dense / dark hair?
Yes—the Tria 4X Hair Removal Laser is effective for the removal of back hair, with thicker and darker hairs actually absorbing more energy than finer or lighter coloured hairs.

Is back hair laser removal painful?
The sensation feels like a flash of heat, often compared to an elastic band snapping against the skin, which is manageable and worth it for the results. 

With Tria, you have full control over the intensity level, meaning that you can reduce it for comfort if needed. However, higher settings will offer better hair removal results.
