Arizona Hair Removal Treatments For Men

Temporary hair removal treatments for men are generally the same methods that women use:

  • shaving
  • waxing
  • tweezing or plucking
  • applying depilatory creams or lotions

Most men must shave their faces every day to remain clean-shaven. Grooming areas such as the back or chest is an ongoing maintenance routine. The length of time between treatments varies, depending on the chosen method. Laser treatments can be a time-saver when it comes to daily hygiene, as it provides a permanent reduction of growth.

Hair Removal Treatments for Men Can Be Permanent

Electrolysis, a process in which each individual shaft of hair is heated separately with an electrical current, is the only FDA-approved form of permanent hair removal. This method is extremely time-consuming and can be very painful. Electrolysis does not render positive results unless the growth is very thin and fine. Lasers can achieve a permanent reduction where stubble is softer and re-growth is significantly less thick and abundant. Lasers cover an entire area of the body at one time, making the procedure much quicker than electrolysis. Applying a topical anesthetic to the skin prior the hair removal procedure makes it virtually pain free. Light-based technologies are most effective on brown or black-haired men whose skin color is light.

The Glendale location of NuU Medspa is open Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Sundays from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
