What all men need to know about laser hair removal

Most men have been shaving their beards since adolescence and some have gotten used to also clipping/shaving or waxing their body hairs.. However, while some can see it as a sign of masculinity, for others it can be a real inconvenience.  Because of that, lots of men are starting to get over their preconception that laser hair removal is only meant for women, and are actually really starting to seek for this treatment as a solution for their body hair issues.

 

Here’s just a few reasons why you should quit the razor/waxing and join us in the laser hair removal club:

 

  • Laser prevents bumps and ingrown hairs
  • It removes up to 99% of the hair
  • It leaves the skin silky smooth
  • When done on the back of the neck, it will make your  haircut last longer, leaving a neat neckline. 
  • All body areas can be treated
  • Low maintenance – you will only need treatment once a month, for around 8-10 sessions.
  • Virtually pain free.

 

What can men do to prepare?

              Two weeks before treatment

  • Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the area. This will ensure the hair is in the follicle and the laser can treat it;
  • Do not have cosmetic injections or skin treatments – the laser can’t be used on broken skin;
  • Avoid direct sun exposure on the areas treated, fake tans and solariums, since these increase the risk of pigmentation

 

              24 hours before treatment

  •  Shave the area to ensure the laser is absorbed by the hair follicle below the skin’s surface.
