MeDioStar MONOLITH is a medical device for long-term hair reduction with 808 nm and 940 nm diode laser. Laser energy is absorbed by melanin in the hair and uses heat to act on hair-producing tissue.
It has a contact cooling function that cools the skin surface, and broad areas can be treated continuously, while narrow areas or dense hair can be treated one shot at a time.
Rather than treating every area with the same settings, the delivery method is selected according to hair thickness, density, and skin condition.
The handpiece is moved across the skin while lower-energy pulses gradually build heat around the hair follicles. This mode is also used for broad areas such as the back, arms, and legs.
Each pulse is placed individually while its position is checked. This mode is used for dense hair and smaller areas such as the beard, VIO area, and underarms.
This section explains the characteristics of the wavelengths and delivery modes. Settings are selected after the hair, skin tone, treatment area, and treatment history are assessed.
Hair type, density, skin tone, sun exposure, and inflammation are assessed, and settings are adjusted for each area. Output is reduced if the sensation is too strong.
In addition to full-body treatment, individual areas such as the face, beard, underarms, arms, legs, VIO area, and fingers or toes can be selected. Tell us whether you want to reduce density or retain a particular shape.
If redness, folliculitis, or another skin change occurs after treatment, a physician can assess it. The clinic provides support from the initial consultation through aftercare.
Treatment can begin with the individual areas that concern you.
Arms, legs, chest, abdomen, and back. The women's full-body fee excludes the face and VIO area.
Full face, upper lip, chin, cheeks, under the chin, neck, and sideburns.
A combined V/I/O course and individual-area pricing for women are available.
Underarms, nape, upper and lower arms, upper and lower legs, and the backs and digits of the hands and feet.
All prices include tax. Three-session courses are 5% off; courses of five or more sessions are 10% off.
Shaving fee for missed hair: ¥3,300 per area (¥5,500 for V, I, or O).

Book online. Shave the treatment area with an electric shaver between two days and one day before treatment.
The clinician assesses hair type, skin condition, medications, and sun exposure before deciding whether treatment can proceed.
Gel is applied and the area is treated while the skin is cooled. Tell the clinician if the sensation feels too strong.
Check the skin after laser delivery and cool it as needed. Moisturize on the day and avoid UV and strong irritation.
Follow-up is generally scheduled according to the hair-growth cycle: about 1–2 months for the face and 1.5–3 months for the body.
Whether treatment can proceed and which settings are appropriate is determined from the examination and the skin condition on the day.
Multiple sessions are generally needed; the number varies by hair density, treatment area, and the desired reduction. Typical intervals are about 1–2 months for the face and 1.5–3 months for the body.
You may feel warmth or a sensation similar to a rubber-band snap, depending on the area. MeDioStar MONOLITH has a contact-cooling unit and delivers laser energy while cooling the skin. The output is adjusted if discomfort is strong.
Recently sunburned or inflamed skin may not be suitable for treatment. We assess the skin on the day rather than relying on skin color alone. Avoid strong sunburn before and after treatment.
Shave the treatment area with an electric shaver between two days and one day before treatment. Do not use tweezers or wax. A shaving fee may apply when hair has been missed.
The women's full-body hair-removal fee does not include the face or VIO area. Face and VIO can be combined with the necessary parts. Men can choose whole body, face, beard, VIO, partial hair removal.
Contact us by the day before your appointment to make a change or cancellation. A same-day cancellation counts as a used session.
Yes. You can select areas such as the three standard beard zones, cheeks, under the chin, upper lip, chin, and neck.
