Men’s Laser Hair Removal for Smooth Sexy Skin
Thanks to the male hormone testosterone, men grow thick, course hair on virtually every part of their body. And while a full head of hair, or a hairy chest can be considered quite “manly”, unwanted hair on other parts of the body can be a total “turn off”.
Excessive hair between the eyebrows (“unibrow”), on the cheeks, toes, hands, back, arms – and even the buttocks and genital area – can be uncomfortable, unsightly and annoying.
But men’s laser hair removal can make the endless aggravation of shaving, waxing, or plucking a thing of the past! At Better U Medical Spa in Englewood, NJ we have helped hundreds of men achieve the smooth, sexy skin they desire with revolutionary Cutera men’s laser hair removal.
In this article, board certified Englewood, NJ physician Dr. Hetal Gor explains everything you need to know about state-of-the-art Cutera men’s laser hair removal.
What Is Cutera Men’s Laser Hair Removal?
If you are a man who grows thick, course hair in unwanted places on your body, then hair removal is likely one of the most dreaded, never-ending tasks in your daily regimen. If you are sick and tired of constantly having to get rid of unwanted hair, men’s laser hair removal is the best permanent option.
The Cutera laser hair removal device used in our Englewood Medical Spa destroys the hair follicle itself with thermal energy. While waxing, plucking and shaving, only remove the top of the hair – leaving the “root” in place to regrow” – laser treatments “kill” the entire follicle so that men’s hair cannot grow back.
How Men’s Laser Hair Removal Works
When most men think of lasers, they think of the blinding death rays that are used to destroy villains and monsters in science fiction movies. But men’s hair removal lasers are very different. They deliver very thin beams of light energy that only target the hair follicle, while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. Specific laser wavelengths are absorbed by the color (melanin pigment) in the hair follicle, while not affecting the adjacent areas.
When the hair follicle absorbs the laser energy it is destroyed. Many other, older and less advanced men’s laser hair removal systems only work on dark hair and lighter skin. But advanced Cutera men’s laser hair removal used at Better U in Englewood, NJ can be used on darker skin as well as lighter hair.
Does Men’s Laser Hair Removal Hurt?
Not all lasers are created equal when it comes to comfort. Older systems of men’s laser hair removal were actually quite painful – and unfortunately many other med spas and salon operators are still using these outdated models today.
But the new generation of Cutera men’s laser hair removal devices include a sapphire contact cooling technology that keeps men’s skin cool during treatment for the most comfortable hair removal experience. Many men compare the sensation of the Cutera laser hair removal process to the snap of a rubber band on the skin.
Cutera men’s laser hair removal is so comfortable that it can even be used to treat the most sensitive areas of the body, including the face, neck, and even the anal and genital area.
Best Men’s Laser Hair Removal Treatment
Because men’s hair shafts grow in stages or “phases” – with a follicle resting phase, and an active growth phase – only a certain amount of hair follicles are active at any given time. Since hair follicles must be in the active growth phase in order to be treated and destroyed by the laser, most men require from 3 to 6 men’s laser hair removal treatments at Better U in Englewood, NJ.
The only “recovery” may be some slight pink or reddish color to the skin – which typically disappears within a day. But men can return to work or their normal activities immediately after their laser hair removal session. (Note: patients should avoid hydroxy acid skin products, retinoids, and sun exposure after treatment to prevent irritation and dark spots (hyperpigmentation).
