Male Laser Hair Removal

By Fiona Fidelis

When it comes to hair removal for men, the standard used to be shaving cream and a razor. Laser hair removal, in Atlanta especially, once just a service for women, is quickly becoming the norm for plenty of men everywhere. Its not a complicated procedure, and is quick and ideal for anyone who wants a permanent solution to any body hair.

Laser hair removal works by penetrating the skin " without damaging it " with an invisible light which is absorbed by the hair follicles. This in effect kills the follicle, and prevents it from growing more hair. In reality, the laser is simply damaging the follicle and preventing it from going about its daily function.

While a single hair removal session can be quick, the entire process is drawn out. At the moment, its not possible to completely wipe out all hair in one area in one session " though the smaller the area, the faster your hair will be gone. Often youll need to go in for several sessions before the hair is completely removed. However, once your sessions are complete, the area will be hairless as desired.

Unfortunately multiple sessions are one of the downsides of laser hair removal. While the sessions are quick, they can also be expensive. Just 5 sessions might set you back a few hundred dollars. However since laser hair removal is becoming more popular, the procedure is becoming more and more affordable. Check your local listings for various clinics " youll probably find some competitive prices.

Before going through laser hair removal treatments, however, be aware that there are some minor side effects. Men with tanned or darker skin are often more prone to white marks on their face. While lighter colored skin is not immune to these side effects, its been known to happen to those males as well. Even with the small risk of side effects, laser hair removal is still an effective way of managing your hair.
