Hair Removal Laser Treatments
Hair removal lasers emit a gentle beam of light that passes through the skin and is absorbed by the hair follicle. Upon absorption, the light energy disables the hair follicle while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. The laser treatment wands are equipped with a special device that cools the skin during the laser hair removal treatment, making laser hair removal a comfortable and pleasant experience.
It is important to note, hair grows in phases and hair follicles must be in the active growth cycle to be treated by hair removal lasers. For this reason, a series of permanent hair removal treatments are typically recommended for optimal hair removal.
The number of laser hair removal treatments will vary, depending on the individual hair characteristics and the area treated. Most people will achieve permanent hair removal after four to six treatments.
FAQ's: Male Laser Hair Removal
Is laser hair removal for men permanent?
The FDA has approved the term “Permanent Hair Reduction” when referring to laser hair removal. Based on our experience, most treated hair will not re-grow after hair removal laser treatment. However, each individual is different and will respond differently to laser hair removal treatments.
What should I expect after a hair removal laser treatment?
After the initial laser hair removal treatment, most men will experience a significant reduction in hair growth in the treated area. However, it may take up to two weeks or longer for the treated hair to push its way to the surface and fall out. Subsequent visits should be scheduled four to eight weeks apart to allow time for hair follicles to enter the active growth cycle.
Can men with light hair have laser hair removal treatments?
Hair removal lasers detect pigment in the hair follicle; therefore, red, blond and gray hair is more difficult and sometimes impossible to treat. Men with lighter hair color can undergo a free demonstration to determine if their hair color will respond well to laser hair removal treatment.
