Every field on the rate sheet, and how to read it before you book

Cost by area
The short answer
Laser hair removal at Rewind is priced one body area at a time. Each field on the clinic's rate sheet carries two figures, a single visit and a course of five sessions bought together, and women and men are listed in separate columns. The rates for each field sit in the pricing section further down this page, quoted before VAT. Whether that works out cheaper than at home depends on what your local quote covers; Rewind publishes no comparison with prices abroad, so the fair test is to line the two quotes up area by area, session by session, with tax on both.
Rates on this page come from the clinic's current fee schedule for its Clarity hair removal platform. They are list rates, and VAT is added at payment.
Area pricing has one practical consequence for a visitor: the figure you are quoted depends on the words you use when you book. An upper lip is a small, fixed field. A leg can mean a calf, a thigh, a knee or the whole limb, and each of those is its own line with its own rate. Before comparing anything, decide which fields you actually want treated and write them into the booking form.
Travel belongs in the arithmetic too. Hair grows in cycles, so a course is spread over months, and buying five sessions in Seoul only makes sense if you expect to come back for the later ones. For a single trip, the single-visit rate of each field is the unit worth comparing.
How the sheet is built
The rate sheet looks long, but it follows four rules. Once you know them you can estimate roughly where your own total will land before you ask.
The men's column lists fields that do not appear for women: the chin, the jawline beard, the sideburns, the top of the foot and the toes. The women's facial fields on the sheet are the upper lip and the hairline.
Why rows differ
The sheet does not explain its own numbers, but the gaps between rows track the physical work involved. Four factors account for most of them.
The handpiece treats one spot at a time, and the operator works across a field in overlapping passes. A whole leg asks for many more pulses than an underarm, and the rate steps up in the same direction. In the women's column, the underarm, the upper lip and the knee share the lowest rate on the sheet.
Beard hair and the hair on a man's thigh are usually thicker and more tightly packed than hair on a woman's forearm. That is part of the reason the men's column is higher for many of the same fields. The device and the method are identical on both sides of the sheet.
The Clarity platform carries two wavelengths, 755 nm and 1064 nm. Which one is used depends on your skin tone and the hair being treated, and the choice does not move your quote. The rate is attached to the field and the column.
Only follicles in an active growth phase respond to the pulse, so each visit reaches part of the hair in a field. A 2022 systematic review found that the length of the growth cycle varies by site, around six months on the face, seven in the underarm and a year on the leg. The five-session course on the sheet exists for that reason.

Before you pay
Price questions about hair removal usually arrive before anyone has looked at the skin. The clinic answers them in the same order each time.
A quote is read off the sheet once you and the doctor have agreed which areas are being treated. Adding a field on the day means adding its own line from the same sheet, so ask for the revised total before the laser is switched on.
Recent sun, self-tanner and medication that raises light sensitivity all change what can safely be fired. When the skin is not ready, the field is postponed, and a course bought for skin that cannot yet be treated helps nobody.
Rewind's rate sheet lists one platform for laser hair removal. The differences between rows come from area, hair and column, and none of them reflects a premium machine waiting in the next room.
On the day

Fig. 05 — Reception, where the agreed fields are settled with VAT
A first visit runs in a fixed order. You meet the doctor, the fields are agreed and the skin is checked, the rate for each field is read from the sheet, and treatment follows. Protective eyewear is worn by everyone in the room while the laser is in use, and VAT is added to the listed rates when you settle at reception. The clinic occupies the fourth and fifth floors of the Richro Building in Gangnam, Seoul, and sees patients by appointment on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 10:00 to 19:00 and on Saturday from 10:00 to 16:00.
If you are comparing quotes for a single trip, ask for the one-visit rate of each field you want and keep any course price on a separate line. That keeps the comparison like for like, and it stops a five-session figure being judged against a single appointment.
Pricing
The rows below are drawn from both columns of the sheet and stay with individual fields. The bikini, all-Brazilian and full-body lines are separate entries on the same sheet.
All figures are list rates before VAT, which is added at payment. On most rows five visits cost the same as four single visits. A few rows, such as the women's forearm and several small fields in the men's column, are set slightly differently, so read the course line itself when you plan.

Worth paying for
Aftercare
Looking after a treated field needs sunscreen and a little restraint. Rewind's instructions after laser work come to four points: redness straight afterwards can happen, sauna, jjimjilbang and sweaty exercise are avoided, massage and strong friction stay off the area, and sunscreen goes on whenever you head outdoors.
The risks are the ones any laser carries. Redness and swelling are common. Blistering, crusting and superficial burns are less common and more likely on tanned skin or at high settings. Temporary darkening or lightening of the skin can follow, particularly in deeper skin tones. Folliculitis, a spotty irritation of the follicles, and paradoxical growth of finer hair near a treated edge are both documented. Report blistering or pain that increases after you leave to the clinic straight away.
At Rewind, one board-certified plastic surgeon carries every case — from the first consultation to the final follow-up. Because a face is a story, and a story deserves a single author.

Scientific evidence
A price sheet cannot say what a course achieves, so these three papers are cited for that question. One systematic review compares long-term reduction across devices and body sites, one randomised trial sets a long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser against intense pulsed light in darker skin, and one study follows a 1064 nm laser across all six skin types. None was carried out at Rewind or on its patients, and none predicts a personal result.
