Are men going in for laser hair removal treatments?

Laser hair removal has become increasingly popular for men who have excessive hair on their backs, chests or legs. Many men opt for laser hair removal because they're tired of waxing, shaving, electrolysis, tweezing, trimming, and the like. Laser hair removal can be a cost-effective, relatively painless and effective way of achieving permanent hair reduction in areas where it is unwanted.

There are several reasons why men opt for male laser hair removal:

• Men want to have a smooth looking chest and do not want to have a lot of chest hair.

• The shoulders are one place where most men do not want to have hair.

• Back hair is another place where men want to get rid of unwanted hair. Most men do not like the idea of having a hairy back at all.

• Around the ears and even the eyebrows.

HOW DOES THE LASER TREATMENT WORK?

The laser hair removal treatment creates a beam of high-intensity light that penetrates deep into skin tissue where it delivers a controlled amount of targeted therapeutic heat. Candela’s patented Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™) technology protects the upper layers of your skin with a cooling burst of cryogen. Together, the long-pulse laser and DCD cooling offer optimal treatment with minimal side effects.
