Laser Hair Removal For Men’s Chest And Abs
These days a lot of men are using laser hair removal to get rid of hair on their chest or abs, or they just want to thin it out. In the past it was a procedure that was only used by cyclists, bodybuilders, swimmers or male exotic dancers. Laser hair removal is the only practical technique that works for thinning on a long term basis. Waxing and shaving get rid of all of the hair but only temporarily.
Laser provides long lasting results
Laser hair removal is a procedure that penetrates the hair shaft, and kills or deactivates the root. Although it is not permanent, it is much longer lasting than other types of treatments and after an initial 4 to 8 treatments you may need touchups once or twice a year.
Nearly painless
Although the chest and ab areas are sensitive, laser hair removal is nearly painless because of the “chill tip” our laser is equipped with. It feels like someone is snapping an elastic band on your skin. Some may experience slight discomfort immediately after the treatment but it dissipates quickly. You will notice some redness that will disappear within 30 minutes.
Most men are good candidates
Most men will benefit from laser hair removal, but if you have dark skin, it is important to talk to our experienced laser technician about what would be the most appropriate laser for you. Laser hair removal works best on people who have fair to medium dark skin, and brown or black hair. It does not work on white, blonde or red hair.
Stay out of the sun
Before your first treatment, do not wax, stay out of the sun, and steer clear of creams or lotions. Some technicians recommend shaving the area beforehand so that the hair does not burn. If you do have to be in the sun, it is recommended that you use sunscreen and cover the treatment area as much as possible for 2 weeks prior to and 48 hours after the procedure.
Three to eight treatments required
You can expect to spend about thirty to forty five minutes per treatment. Of course this depends on the size of the area, and how much hair you want removed. If you are just thinning out the hair on your chest and abs, you may only need two or three treatments. If you want to get rid of all of your hair, you could have up to eight.
