You Asked, We Answered: Laser Hair Removal for Men

How is laser hair removal for men different from that of women?

The same laser technology is used in male laser hair removal that is used in female laser hair removal; however, the areas that are typically treated differ. Thus, the technique and laser settings vary slightly between men and women.  The certified laser hair removal technicians at Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center are skilled in performing hair removal on all skin and hair types.

What areas can men have laser hair removal?

Like women, men can receive laser hair removal treatment anywhere they have unwanted hair.  Most men request laser hair removal to treat their backs, chest, arms, and beard.

Do men have to do anything special to their skin after laser hair removal treatment?

Yes, proper laser treatment aftercare includes avoiding sun exposure for laser treated skin for several weeks following treatment.  It is particularly important for male laser hair removal patients to remember to use an SPF 30 or higher sunscreen and wear protective clothing after laser treatment as they are less apt to wear cosmetic skin products or lotions with SPF built into them.

What does Laser Lights offer men besides laser hair removal?
