Men who experience excessive hair growth on their backs & chests often opt for laser hair removal as an effective means to manage unwanted body hair. While shaving leaves many with ingrown hairs and razor burn rashes, laser hair removal offers an alternative safe & reliable method to do away with unwanted body hair.
Laser light absorbs pigment found in hair follicles and converts it to heat energy, thus dissolving them and stopping future hair growth. Multiple sessions may be necessary.
Face
Laser hair removal removes unwanted facial hair by targeting each hair follicle’s pigment (dark color) with laser light, attracted by its dark pigment. Once attracted by this dark pigment, laser light destroys it so that hair no longer grows from it and stops producing new growth follicles altogether. Treatment sessions tend to be quick and relatively painless; many clients report feeling like rubber bands snapping over their skin as the laser beam passes over. Treatment requirements depend on your unique circumstances but generally 6-9 sessions should provide maximum results.
For optimal results, it’s ideal to refrain from shaving, waxing, tweezing and using depilatory creams in the area being treated at least one month prior to beginning laser treatments. Doing so removes hair follicles at their roots & renders laser treatments ineffective. Furthermore, if taking certain medications such as Tetracycline & Doxycycline may make you photosensitive increasing risk for side effects from laser treatments.
Men – Are stray hairs appearing on your cheek, neck, underarms or legs? Laser hair removal treatments may reduce grooming time while making you appear younger. Laser treatments work on men of all skin tones but tend to work best on dark hairs.
Be sure to inform the esthetician if you have herpes simplex virus I or II before beginning treatment as laser heat can worsen symptoms of herpes infection, potentially prompting a flare-up of symptoms. Furthermore, it would be prudent to postpone any appointments should an outbreak appear on either your face or genital area.
Back
Men often feel self-conscious about excessive hair growth on their back and chest. Laser treatments may provide great relief by eliminating unwanted hair.
Laser treatments use light that is absorbed by melanin pigment in hair follicles to convert them to heat that destroys their roots, permanently eliminating hair growth. Laser hair removal treatments usually last less than 20 minutes without downtime. Patients may experience red, inflamed skin sensitive to scratching or clothing pressure for several days after treatment; for optimal results it is wise to avoid depilatory creams or waxing in this area for several days after your session; additionally, any medications such as Tetracycline or Doxycycline should be discontinued two weeks beforehand in order for your laser session to take full effect.
Laser hair removal can be a fantastic solution for both men and women who are fed up with shaving, tweezing or waxing their bodies for smooth skin year-round! Schedule a consultation now to see if laser hair removal could be right for you!
Chest
Men with excess chest hair can feel both uncomfortable and embarrassed by it, making shaving or waxing only temporary solutions. Laser treatment provides permanent solution and is completely pain-free and discomfort free.
The initial treatment session typically lasts 30 minutes – or roughly the length of a typical lunch break. You’re free to resume daily activities immediately following treatment, with minor pinching sensations similar to rubber band snapping against skin felt during treatment; the cooling device on the hand piece helps minimize any discomfort; most people are able to tolerate discomfort without long-term side effects.
Laser chest hair removal offers another distinct advantage compared to shaving or waxing: no long-term skin irritation. While shaving and waxing can irritate chest skin, laser treatment doesn’t need to be repeated as often.
Laser hair removal can also reduce body odor. Hairs on the chest tend to trap sweat, leading to an accumulation of unpleasant body odor that makes you less comfortable to be around. By getting rid of those hairs, laser hair removal can greatly diminish this unpleasant odor and make life more bearable for everyone around.
Laser hair removal on the chest may vary in price depending on how much hair needs to be removed and the total number of sessions needed. Although more expensive than shaving or waxing, laser treatments remain an affordable choice when compared with permanent solutions like electrolysis or capillotherapy. It is possible to bundle multiple treatments together at a more reasonable cost.
Underarms
Hair removal in the underarm area (axilla) is an increasingly popular trend among both women and men during adolescence, particularly for cosmetic purposes or to reduce friction during physical activities. While some cultures encourage women to keep underarm hair longer than is generally accepted within Western culture, some cultures encourage this practice for various cultural reasons.
Laser hair removal can be a powerful solution for eliminating unwanted underarm hair. It uses laser light to heat and destroy hair follicles, thus stopping their ability to produce new hair growth. This process is much quicker and less painful than shaving, waxing, tweezing, or depilatory creams – the laser light attracts to dark pigment in each follicle while it rests between cycles; multiple treatments may be required in order to achieve permanent reduction.
Laser hair removal treatments vary from person to person; most patients report feeling something similar to a rubber band snapping against their skin. Numbing creams may be applied depending on where treatment takes place in order to minimize discomfort.
Laser hair removal is an efficient, safe way of eliminating unwanted body hair in the underarms and elsewhere on the body. Before beginning laser treatments, however, it is advisable to consult a qualified dermatologist first and refrain from tweezing, waxing or using depilatory creams on the area being treated prior to laser treatments – these practices could impede its effectiveness and cause its uselessness for treating herpes simplex virus types 1 or 2. Also note that laser treatments should only be considered once herpes symptoms have subsided before proceeding with laser hair removal treatments – otherwise
Legs
Shaving can be time-consuming and cumbersome, particularly if your legs have curves. Laser hair removal in Cedar Park & Austin, TX can save hours of shower time as well as save the frustration associated with shaving sensitive areas. Six laser treatment sessions should suffice to achieve permanent hair reduction.
Laser treatments are relatively painless and recovery from them is usually relatively swift. While you will need to avoid sun exposure and stop plucking or shaving the treated area for several weeks following laser treatments, life should continue as normal immediately afterwards. Some patients may experience temporary puffiness or redness; as your skin heals further it will begin producing much lighter and finer hairs than before in that area.
