Why Should Men Get Laser Hair Removal?

Why Should Men Get Laser Hair Removal?

There is no hiding from the fact that most of our clients are ladies. We are starting to see a lot more men and it is amazing to see the results we are getting.

Men tend to get hair in different place due to the increased levels of testosterone in their bodies. Men will grow more hair on the chest, back and face.

Why should men get laser hair removal?

  1. Improved aesthetics: Men who have excessive or unwanted body hair may not feel confident in their appearance. Laser hair removal can provide a smoother, more groomed look, which can enhance self-esteem.
  2. Enhanced athletic performance: Swimmers, cyclists, and other athletes who require streamlined body profiles may benefit from laser hair removal. Hair-free skin can reduce drag and increase efficiency during physical activity.
  3. Reduction of ingrown hairs: Men who suffer from ingrown hairs as a result of shaving or waxing can find relief through laser hair removal. The heat from the laser destroys hair follicles, which prevents hair growth and reduces the likelihood of ingrown hairs.
  4. Improved hygiene: Hair in certain regions of the body can trap bacteria and sweat, resulting in unpleasant odours and infections. Laser hair removal can reduce the amount of hair in these areas, making cleaning easier and reducing the risk of infection.
  5. Convenience: Laser hair removal provides a semi-permanent solution to hair removal. Men who are tired of constantly shaving or waxing can save time and money by opting for laser hair removal.

Beard shaping with laser hair removal

One of the most common areas we treat for men is the beard. Very often men must shave once per day or even twice on their face and this can create razor burns or sometimes folliculitis which is where the hair follicle gets inflamed and red. This is not good for day-to-day activities as often people will question what has happened to your face. It can be embarrassing to have to explain.

Beard shaping for men with laser hair removal involves using a medical laser to selectively target and remove unwanted hair from the beard area. The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair shaft, which destroys the hair follicle, thereby preventing further hair growth. We sometimes remove some of the beard to shape and design it, or the whole thing if the client doesn’t want any hair on the face.

The laser treatment is precise, and it can be used to shape and contour the beard according to the patient’s preferences.

Before the laser hair removal procedure, the patient should shave the beard area thoroughly to ensure that the laser energy is focused on the hair follicles beneath the skin’s surface. The treatment can be customised to suit the patient’s skin type, hair color, and beard density.

The recovery time after laser beard shaping is minimal, and most patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the treatment. Some patients may experience minor redness, swelling, or irritation in the treated area, which usually resolves within a few hours to a few days.

In conclusion, laser hair removal can effectively shape and contour the beard area for men who want a clean, well-defined look. The procedure is safe, effective, and minimally invasive, with minimal downtime, making it an attractive option for men looking to improve their appearance.
