Arizona Permanent Hair Removal For Men

Laser hair removal can be an effective way for men to reduce hair growth permanently on their backs, chests and even faces. The procedure is FDA-approved and virtually painless. The smoothness of the skin that results from this light-based removal method lasts for a much longer period of time than waxing or shaving.

Who Can Use Laser Hair Removal

Before scheduling an appointment for the actual laser treatment, someone who is interested in the procedure must be assessed to determine whether he is a good candidate for the treatment. Men and women with light skin and dark hair are the best candidates for this type of procedure. The skin absorbs rays put out by a highly concentrated laser beam and when the skin's pigmentation is too dark, the light cannot differentiate between the skin and the follicles it is trying to destroy. This renders the treatment ineffective and may cause discoloration or blistering in the patient.

People who are found to be appropriate candidates for laser treatments are encouraged to use sunscreen for up to two months before treatment sessions to ensure that the skin will not be too dark. Waxing is also discouraged during this time, though shaving is acceptable. An appointment to groom a man's chest or back is one hour on average. Five to eight removal appointments may be necessary over a period of several months in order to achieve a permanent reduction in the desired area.
