Laser Hair Removal
Information for Men

Men are seeking more laser hair removal information than ever before.  They have become aware of the time saving nature of laser hair removal and the permanent solution that it offers.  Excess amounts of male hair, whether on the back or chest, can be removed quickly and efficiently with little discomfort during the procedure.  The following laser hair removal information should help clarify what are the most common areas treated on males.  

Facial Hair Removal

The facial hair removal procedure is becoming very popular with men and provides a solid solution for ridding oneself of unwanted hair on the face. Because facial hair is so visible, most men prefer a permanent hair removal solution in this area.

This facial hair removal treatment involves the application of a low energy laser directed at a select grouping of hair follicles. The goal is to destroy, or disable, the root of the hair follicle without damaging the surrounding skin.

The cost of laser facial hair removal will vary dramatically from individual to individual.  The reason for this is the size of the area treated and the complexity of each case is different for each person.  For hair removal on the eyebrows, it takes only about 10 seconds.  The chin, on the other hand, may take up to 2-3 minutes.  The average cost for a laser hair removal treatment will run between $100 and $300.

Back Hair Removal

Laser hair removal will provide permanent removal of unwanted back hair in a series of short sessions.  Compared to the significant discomfort associated with waxing off back hair, the laser hair removal treatment should be viewed as a real bargain.  A back hair removal treatment only takes about an hour. The treatments will have to be repeated every 6-8 weeks, with an average of 5-8 treatments being required to achieve a more permanent solution.

The cost of these hair removal treatments is approximately $400 to $850 per session.  As you can imagine, these prices vary widely because of the differences in the amount of hair that men have.  An "average" American man can incur costs of up to several thousand dollars to complete a series of laser hair removal treatments.

Chest / Abdominal Hair Removal

An increasing amount of laser hair removal information is being requested from hair removal clinics by men.  One of the more common laser treatments involves the removal of unwanted hair on the chest and abdomen.  Laser hair removal for males is a quick and affordable solution for removal of excess chest hair.  The laser hair removal procedure generally takes about one hour per session, with a minimum of 4 treatments required to achieve permanent hair removal status.  The average costs per session is about $300.
