Laser Hair Removal for Men: Removing misconceptions and more

Confused about laser hair removal for men or unsure about where/how to begin?

We’ve got your back (literally).

With the rise in #manscaping and grooming in the media, there has been a growth in the popularity of Laser Hair Removal for men with up to 85% of Australian men opting for this method.

What is Laser Hair Removal?

Using grade 4 medical lasers accredited by Syneron Candela, Laser Hair Removal uses a concentrated laser beam that destroys your hair follicles and over time, reduces hair growth. All without disrupting or damaging the skin’s surface.

Why is Laser Hair Removal for men a popular choice?

Who has time to shave or spend hours at a beauty salon getting waxed?

Not only do you enjoy the convenience of ditching that razor or performing gymnastics to get to those hard to reach places – the results are long lasting, less painful and your treatments are in monthly intervals. Depending on your hair type, we recommend a minimum of 6 to 10 treatments for optimum results.

Shaving vs. Laser Hair Removal

Imagine not having to shave every 3-4 days? So much more room for activities!

With most men needing to shave or trim every few days to maintain their face or body, Laser Hair Removal is an efficient and effective way of reducing time in the long run as well as preventing after shave rash, redness and ingrowns.

Did you know …

On average 40% of treatments performed at Results Laser Clinic are on men?

Am I too hairy?

No. Absolutely not.

Prior to your appointment, you’re required to shave the priority area/s as this allows the follicles to be effectively lasered. With regular sessions, you will see an overall reduction in hair growth. Moreover, the use of Candela Gentlelase Pro and GentleYag Pro technology enable a range of skin tones to be treated.

So, where can men Laser?

Basically anywhere (except your scalp).

Start by sculpting your beard, enjoy a silky smooth chest or define your neckline. Our most popular treatments, especially in the lead up to summer include

• Chest & Stomach
• Full Back
• Arms
• Half Back
• Full Bottom

And ….. Downstairs. The Male Brazilian The Male Brazilian – in a bit of a situation?

Whether you are looking for a tidy up or a clean look – we can tailor a treatment program based on your priorities. And for those who want to go the distance, yes we treat the front and all the way to the back.

What is the up keep?

It is minimal. The procedure is simple, effective and painless and after a recommended minimum of 6-10 sessions, you will notice a reduction in hair growth. Remember, everyone is different, so you may require maintenance treatments. However, this still means you won’t need to spend time agonising in front of a mirror in figuring out HOW TO shave those stubborn strays you just can’t seem to reach or get rid of. When is the best time to start treatments?

Autumn-Winter is an ideal time for Laser Hair Removal treatments as the skin is generally out of the sun. Due to the decrease in sun exposure, this reduces the risk of experiencing reactions to treatment. It is still important to follow our recommended after care.

And the best thing of all? You’re in control of which areas you want lasered and have the option of having a target or a combination of areas lasered.

Aftercare

Redness, itchiness, small red bumps and sensitivity are all common reactions. Immediately after laser, Results Active Recovery Gel must be applied on your treated areas. This assists with keeping the skin cool and reduce further irritation.

Other important aftercare includes, but is not limited to

• Avoiding excessive sun exposure on the treated areas for 2 weeks
• Use only cool or lukewarm water when showering in the first 24 to 48 hours
• Apply sunscreen
• Avoid exercise 24 hours after

World class Laser Hair Removal for Men and Women, the perfect trendy date.

Couples that laser together stay together, has become a new trend, thanks to the likes of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West over the past 2 years.

We all know regular grooming helps your outward appearance and your self confidence.  When you look good, you feel good, so why wouldn’t you want to stay young and smooth together with Laser Hair Removal at Australia’s most trusted skin and laser clinic – Results Laser Clinic.

In the past, women have normally been the ones to want hair removal for their legs, underarms and Brazilians, but now we are seeing a rise in the number of men wanting to be hair free too! Whether it’s the back, chest or even cheeks, men are stepping up their metro-sexual game and becoming silky smooth too.

What sets our treatments aside from beauty salons, is that at Results Laser Clinic we provide a pain free hair removal treatment, for both men and women, for both dark and light skin, that have instant results using medical grade laser hair removal technologies.  Our lasers emit a light that is absorbed by the colour (melanin) in your hair. The light generates heat that travels down the hair shaft to the hair follicle under the skin, permanently disabling its ability to regrow and leaving you one step closer to be hair free in all the right places.

In as little as 6 – 10 treatments, you can remove up to 99% of unwanted hair and you can be sexy and smooth laser lovers for summer!

Quick, safe, reliable and affordable, you can now book in your couples laser date.  Visit www.resultslaserclinic.com.au or call 02 9893 8883 to connect with one of our clinics in your area and get ready for summer.

Is Laser Hair Removal Safe for Pregnant Women?

Is it safe for a woman to undergo laser hair removal when trying to conceive? This question has caused great concern for both pregnant patients and laser therapists.

During the nine months of pregnancy, common discomforts experienced by women include headaches, heartburn, body pains and insomnia. The hair removal discomforts include the act of bending down whilst shaving or enduring the pain of strip waxing. In the third trimester, most women become desperate and consider most effective hair removal methods such as laser hair removal.

Before discussing safety, it is imperative to understand the mechanics of laser hair removal. The hair is eradicated as a laser beam penetrates the skin to target the follicle. It has been clinically proven that the laser beam would not penetrate the skin enough to cause damage to the foetus or the pregnant woman.

The most effective hair removal method on the market is laser. The procedure results in an 85-99 percent reduction at the conclusion of the treatment program. The most commonly treated areas by women include the underarms, face and legs. While hair is normally treated within 6-10 treatments, hormonal changes as well as patterns of hair growth ultimately determine the actual number of required treatments.

The only time certain areas should be avoided are the Brazilian and abdomen during the final trimester. This is due to the fact that the baby is developing in those areas. Woman should also avoid treatment on the breasts as they are vital for breast feeding.

IPL or Laser Hair Removal?

GentleLASE and GentleYAG Laser Hair Removal or Intense Pulsed Light IPL Hair Removal System

GentleLASE, GentleYAG and Intense Pulsed Light hair removal treatments all emit light to cause thermal damage to the hair follicle. The technical differences between the technologies relate to the wavelength colours that are emitted with each laser pulse. The GentleLASE and GentleYAG laser hair removal systems emit a single concentrated light beam and the Palmar Starlux / Multilux IPL hair removal System includes a variety of coloured wavelengths that work simultaneously to target the specific area being treated.

Based on our experience in using all technologies, the GentleLASE and GentleYAG laser technologies operate at optimal wavelengths of light that is best absorbed by both the hair shaft and follicle while protecting the surface skin from heat damage. The GentleLASE has been shown to be a more successful laser hair removal method for permanent reduction of unwanted, unsightly hair. Unlike other laser hair removal tools, the GentleLASE laser system incorporates state of the art dynamic cooling device technology where cryogen is sprayed onto the skin, continuously cooling the skin during treatment. This proprietary feature helps to maximise the effectiveness of the treatment and decrease skin damage. At Results Laser Clinic Sydney CBD, Liverpool, Burwood, Ryde, Blacktown, Parramatta, Wollongong,  Melbourne and Brisbane we use the GentleLASE and GentleYAG removal systems to ensure our clients are given the choice of two of the most efficient options available for light-based treatment of unwanted hair. One may be more suitable than the other based on the patient’s skin type, however, clinical studies have shown that in most cases a laser technology is more effective in the treatment of unwanted hair.
