The Ultimate Guide to Laser Hair Removal for Men in 2023

Posted on

Laser hair removal for men has become one of the most popular methods to remove body and facial hair for men. While you could shave, trim or wax, laser hair removal is the only way to get permanent results when grooming and managing body hair. 

While laser hair removal is sought after by both women and men, everyone’s interest and reason for it may be different. 

Why men love laser hair removal?

Men want to remove body hair for many reasons, such as managing ingrown hairs, getting rid of unwanted body hair, achieving smoother skin and more muscle definition, going fully bald, reducing folliculitis and taming inflamed hair follicles and bumps on the skin. 

Why do male athletes turn to laser hair removal?

Athletes love laser hair removal because it helps with less friction, chafing, and less to no shaving for better performance and muscle definition. 

Others who may just have excessive hair growth like laser hair removal to thin out or get rid of the unwanted hair in areas they have to regularly shave or wax in order to feel most comfortable. 

Those that regularly shave and experience razor burn or folliculitis, the inflamed hair follicles and bumps that appear after shaving, like it to calm these skin problems and get rid of it for good. 

No matter the reason for wanting to remove hair from the body, laser hair removal is the best and only option for achieving all of these results. 

How does laser hair removal for men work?

Laser hair removal works by light beams targeting the hair follicles underneath the skin to essentially disrupt the hair growth cycle, without damaging the skin. The light from the laser destroys the hair shaft to inhibit or delay future growth. 

It is only guaranteed that results will show permanent hair reduction instead of growth – however, depending on the number of sessions and your skin and hair type/color, permanent removal can also be achieved. 

Who is a candidate for laser hair removal?

Those with lighter skin and darker hair usually experience more drastic and permanent results. It is recommended that patients do around 6-8 sessions of laser hair removal to see more permanent results.

Does laser hair removal for men hurt?

Pain levels from laser hair removal differ among each patient. 

The treatment usually doesn’t hurt too much, depending on the patient’s pain tolerance and the areas being treated. 

Patients report the procedure feeling like a pin prick or rubber band snapping on the skin, but if the pain is not tolerated well, numbing cream can be used beforehand if necessary. 

What areas do men treat with laser hair removal?

Men receive laser hair removal on the back, chest, arms, legs, shoulders, neck, sideburns, bikini area, buttocks and/or abdomen areas. 

How long is a laser hair removal treatment for men?

Depending on the treatment area, the procedure can take as little as 5 minutes and as long as 45 minutes:

Laser Hair Removal For Men Treatment Area Treatment Duration
Back 30-45 minutes
Chest 30-45 minutes
Arms 20 minutes
Legs 30-45 minutes
Shoulders 15 minutes
Neck 10 minutes
Sideburns 5 minutes
Bikini Area 20 minutes
Buttocks 20 minutes
Abdomen 20 minutes
Amount of time it takes for laser hair removal treatments for men

How much is laser hair removal for men?

Laser hair removal treatment ranges from $100 – $300 per session, depending on the area you choose to receive the treatment. Men should choose a facility to receive laser hair removal treatment by the reputation of the facility. 

How should you get ready for your laser hair removal appointment?

To prepare for the laser hair removal process, the treatment area(s) should be shaved, however waxing or plucking hair 2-4 weeks prior should be avoided. 

At least 5 days before the treatment, any exfoliation, acidic skin products or retinoids should also be avoided, and you should not be actively tanning or have any sunburn. 

What can men expect after their laser hair removal treatment?

After the treatment, you can expect to have some minor redness and swelling, which will go away after a few hours. You should avoid sweating and sun exposure for at least 24 hours, so no workouts or tanning for at least 1 day following treatment.

No matter if you are looking for better comfort and performance in athletics, easier hygiene and grooming, relieving bumps on the skin that come from shaving, or just getting rid of excessive or unwanted body hair or ingrown hairs, laser hair removal is a great and safe option to feel more confident.

Why you should start laser hair removal in the fall

Posted on

Why You Should Start Laser Hair Removal in the Fall

As the summer is coming to an end, the fall is the perfect time to consider starting laser hair removal treatment. Whether it be for your underarms, legs, face, or any other part of the body, the fall is the best time to do laser hair removal treatment.

Why is fall the best time?

Having laser hair removal requires multiple visits to get the hair to stop growing. Although you will notice less and less grow back, the result is not instantaneous. At Healthy Solutions Medspa, we recommend 6 treatments, no matter the part of the body. If you do 6 treatments, 6-8 weeks apart, when summer comes along, you are smooth and hair free. Toss the razor!

Summer weather and laser hair are not good for each other. Our providers ask if you are tan, do not schedule your laser hair, and wait until the fall. Winter/fall clothing is also way easier to hide body hair compared to our summer bathing suits and tank tops, which makes it easier to hide between sessions.

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal is done to get rid of unwanted hair, and to avoid shaving or waxing so often. The laser is meant to damage the hair follicle to make it stop growing so often. The laser itself releases light absorbed by melanin in our hair on the body. This is what damages the follicles that produce hair.

How to prepare for your laser hair removal treatment

Our providers ask to reschedule your appointment if you are tan or burnt from the sun. Before your treatment, shave the day before or the day of treatment to remove hair above the skin.

How does laser hair removal Feel?

Many patients have described the treatment like they got snapped by a rubber band, and does cause a little discomfort. However, the treatment is very fast! For example, laser hair removal for the under arms only takes 5 minutes. 

Pricing and Packages

At Healthy Solutions Medspa, we have a few options for our laser hair removal treatments. We do laser hair on cheeks, ears, areola, arms, back, inner thighs, bikini, chest, chin, upper lip, legs, happy trail, side burns, face, and neck. Price ranges from $109-$360, and we offer packages of 6 for an additional 10% off the normal treatment price.

Three Reasons to Have Laser Hair Removal Done in Winter

Posted on
laser hair removal

There is no denying that laser hair removal treatments will help you get rid of unwanted hair on your legs, arms, bikini area, face, chest and back.

While laser hair removal can be done at any time of year, the winter season is the best time to begin.

Here are three benefits to starting laser hair removal in the winter.

  1. If you begin laser hair removal in the winter, by the time the warm weather arrives you will have reached optimum results.
  2. During the winter, there is less chance your skin will be exposed to the sun. When getting laser hair removal, it is not recommended to have treatments done on skin with active sun exposure or sunburn.
  3. After treatment, you need to keep the targeted areas of your body out of sunlight. It is easier to do so in the winter because you will most likely be wearing more clothing.

With each laser hair removal treatment, you should expect to see a 10-20% reduction in hair growth.

Since hair has three main growing stages and laser hair removal is achieved during the first growth stage, at least 6 treatments are recommended to get you the best results.

So, if you begin your treatments in January, you will practically be hair free by June.

It’s important to be consistent in scheduling your appointments every four to eight weeks.

Your diligence and patience will be rewarded by the time you wear that first official spring or summer outfit.

At Healthy Solutions by Dr. Luciano Medspa we help our patients free themselves from having unwanted hair.

Waxing and shaving will be a thing of the past with our laser hair removal treatments.

If you live in or near Bucks County, PA and would like to learn more about the benefits of having laser hair removal done at our Medspa, please call us at (267) 388-0300 or schedule a free consultation online.

Laser Hair Removal – 9 Most Frequently Asked Questions

Posted on

Shave. Tweeze. Wax. Repeat – an endless ritual we all must endure unless, of course, you opt for laser hair removal.

What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive, safe method used to remove and permanently reduce unwanted hair.

best laser hair bucks county

The process involves pulses of light that destroys the hair follicle and hair bulb.

This popular treatment has has actually been around since the 1960s, but it did not become available to the public until the late ’90s.

Since then, laser hair removal has become the fastest and most effective way to remove and permanently minimize hair growth from the face, underarms, arms, legs, back, bikini area, and chest.

How much is laser hair removal?

The average cost starts at $89.00 per session for a small area such as the chin and the cost increases for larger areas.

According to those who have been liberated from the need to continuously shave, wax, and tweeze, laser hair removal is the beacon of light that has saved us from the perils of infinite hair growth.

Let’s delve into the most frequently asked questions.

Most Frequently Asked Laser Hair Removal Questions:

1. Is laser hair removal permanent?

It is a long-term solution to reduce unwanted hair. While it permanently reduces hair growth, some hair follicles that were damaged but not destroyed during treatment may regrow. After 6 treatments, you can expect a marked reduction in hair. Any regrowth will be lighter and less noticeable and can be managed with touch-up treatments every six to 12 months.

2. Is laser hair removal painful?

Patients can expect a quick “Snap” that is considered more of a mild discomfort than pain. Numbing creams are available upon request, but it is not usually necessary.

3. Will laser hair removal get rid of ingrown hairs?

Yes! Laser hair removal clears away ingrown hairs by destroying the hair follicle and prevents the hair from coiling under.

4. Does laser hair removal work on blonde hair?

As it turns out, blondes don’t have all the fun. Unfortunately, white, blonde, red, or grey hair do not respond to treatment because there is not enough melanin.
Melanin is the pigment found in skin and hair color. Even if you are not naturally any of those colors, but dye your hair on the outside, the treatment still won’t work.
The laser energy goes below the top layer and affects the stem cells adjacent to the hair shaft. There needs to be color all the way down the hair shaft to attract light and destroy the follicle.

5. Can laser hair removal cause cancer?

No! The treatment doesn’t cause skin cancer. The amount of radiation is a minimal amount that does not cause harm to the skin. In addition, there is no research to date that show light lasers cause cancer.
The laser we use at Healthy Solutions Medspa is safe and FDA cleared for the reduction of hair. The wavelengths are in the safe zone.

6. Will laser hair removal help with acne?

Lasers and other light treatments have been seen to reduce acne; however, laser hair removal is not intended to eliminate acne on its own. Other treatments and medications would be best suitable to treat acne.

7. How does laser hair removal work?

Light is used to target and destroy hair follicles responsible for hair growth without harming surrounding tissue.

8. How many laser hair removal sessions do I need?

Typically, 6 sessions are required to affect all your unwanted hair.
The time between laser hair removal treatments depends on the area you are treating.
Four weeks is recommended between laser hair removal sessions on the face, 4-6 weeks between treatments on the underarms or bikini, and 8-10 weeks between treatments on the legs or back.

3 Awesome Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Posted on

You’ve likely heard of laser hair removal, but maybe you don’t know much beyond the fact that it exists. That’s why we’re going to answer some of the common questions pertaining to the highly popular treatment, and help you understand why it’s the best route to go for people who want to permanently eliminate hair in certain areas of the body.

Did you know that laser hair removal has a 92% rating on RealSelf? Everybody loves it—doctors and patients alike! Here’s why:

Permanence

Most patients have permanent hair loss after their laser hair removal treatment sessions are concluded. Six treatments are recommended to get optimum results.

Cost Effectiveness

The upfront costs of laser hair removal will pay for themselves by a lot in the long run. Let’s compare laser treatment to other common hair removal methods. These are their average lifetime costs:

  • Razors: A little over $10,000
  • Regular waxing: About $23,000
  • Laser hair removal: About $3,000

As you can see, laser hair removal is over 3 times more cost effective than a lifetime of shaving, and about $20,000 less expensive than a lifetime of waxing. That’s serious savings.

Time Savings Add Up

According to one survey, the average woman spends approximately 72 days in her lifetime shaving her legs. That’s nearly 2.5 months! In just several sessions at our office (which range in time depending on what area you are treating), you’ll be able to win back a huge portion of that 72 days, and never have to think about hair removal again.

Other Benefits

  • 4-6 sessions may seem like quite a few, but in comparison to comparable permanent hair removal solutions, it’s one of the fastest from an in-office timeframe perspective.
  • It’s less painful than other comparable methods.
  • It’s truly effective.
  • You can focus on various areas of the body such as your upper lip, chin, underarms, bikini, back or legs to name a few.

We’re here to answer any other questions you may have. As Montgomery and Bucks County, PA’s premier provider of laser hair removal, know that with Healthy Solutions and Dr. Luciano, you’ll be in the best hands possible. We look forward to hearing from you!
