Laser Hair Removal for Men

Not Just the Hair on Your Chinny Chin Chin

As men get older, we often lose the hair on our heads and develop it in places we’d rather not have it. But no matter what age you are, you can still have smooth shoulders and a hairless back, banish painful shave bumps and get rid of that unwanted hair down below. So stop waxing and shaving because there is a more successful and permanent way to defuse and banish stubble forever – Laser Hair Removal.

How Do Laser Hair Removal Treatments for Men Work?

Before we get to the solution, let’s talk about Pseudofolliculitis barbae (AKA shave bumps). If you have curly hair chances are you’re probably suffering from them, but do you know why they form? When you shave, you’re cutting the hair before the skin surface (razor burn anyone?). A few days later, that hair tries to grow back through the skin but can curl back on itself creating bumps and abscesses which can be a real pain.

Laser hair removal will lastingly destroy the hair follicle preventing regrowth and therefore those annoyingly painful bumps and razor rash.

The Excel HR is the newest and best hair removal laser available, safe for all skin types and tones. This high-powered Nd:YAG laser gives a fast and comfortable treatment allowing you to lose the hair you don’t want from your back, shoulders, even your neck – yup, no more neckbeard!

Excel® HR uses laser energy at a precise wavelength that heats up and damages the hair follicle that grows the hair shaft. When the follicle dies, then the hair can’t grow back!

Am I a Good Candidate for Laser Hair Removal?

If you’re a man bothered by unwanted hair anywhere on your body and would like a lasting solution, laser hair removal is something you must consider. A short-term investment in excel® HR will give you smooth, stubble-free skin and save you time, money, and frustration for the long haul.

During your initial consultation prior to your first laser hair removal treatment, Dr. Dohner can do a test on a small area of your skin so you can experience what the laser treatment will feel like before deciding if it’s something you’d like to pursue.

How Long Does a Typical Treatment Take?*

That depends on the size of the area that needs to be treated. Excel® HR can treat any part of the body and face. A smaller area may need just one minute for a session, whereas the full back may need an hour. Treatments are pain-free and have minimal side effects.

What Results Will I See?*

Patients often report a decrease in the amount and thickness of hair growth in treated areas in just 2-3 weeks as the dying hair follicles start to fall out. While other laser treatment methods may need 6-9 sessions to see results, with excel® HR patients see a major improvement in 4-5 sessions. Hair removal treatments are spaced 4-6 weeks apart depending on your hair growth cycle. You’ll see continued improvement with each consecutive session.

Is There Any Downtime?

There is no downtime with laser hair removal for men. Thanks to the patented Sapphire tip cooling, treatments are painless, quick, effective, and safe. You can expect your skin to have slight redness after treatment and the hair follicles may be a little swollen, but this will usually only last a few hours. That being said, you’re free to go about your regular activities immediately following your appointment. You should avoid active sun tanning before or after treatment for a week.

A Word of Caution!

Recently we have seen an increase in storefront spas offering low-cost laser hair removal. These shops typically have inferior machines, operated by non-medical personnel. Having treated several patients who have undergone laser hair removal in such places, I urge you – don’t get burnt by inferior lasers. You might think you’re saving a few bucks but as a wise man once said, Sometimes buying cheap is expensive! Medical grade lasers are the most efficient hair removal system available and completely safe when in the hands of a properly trained medical professional. So, invest wisely in yourself.
