Who would have thought, but it turns out that men do hair removal. And, in principle, this is normal, given modern realities. A male representative undergoing this operation is not immediately equated with a person with a non-traditional sexual orientation. Today, self-care is in the order of things and is a sign of human consciousness.
Epilation for men: how does it work, what are the pros?
Men, like women, also strive for attractiveness. A good appearance can become a springboard for establishing relationships, building a career and has a beneficial effect on other aspects of life, because our appearance is a calling card that reflects our style, character, we alth and taste. Hair on the face and body excites not only beautiful ladies, but also men in their prime. Unwanted hair is the number one aesthetic experience for almost everyone on the planet.
Thanks to modern cosmetology, a person can benefit fromnew generation services. Laser hair removal for men is a breakthrough in the field of men's fashion, because thanks to this procedure, male models can permanently get rid of hairs that irritate the eyes on the face, body and intimate area.
Essence of impact
In today's world, many men are more comfortable resorting to disposable or electric razors. As it turned out, the male gender does not stop only at the face, absolutely any part of the body can be subjected to “razor torture”. Facial hair removal for men is a way to remove a couple of years. Not everyone, of course, wants to look younger, for example, young people are generally fascinated by stubble and beards, but men aged 30-40 understand that a beard is not the most attractive part of their appearance, especially if it is not taken care of. That's just often the process of shaving is accompanied by skin lesions, and in the case of using a poor-quality razor, and generally soreness and severe irritation.
All of this makes epilation for men far from pleasant. But the leap in hardware procedures allows changing the spectrum of perception of this delicate topic. Now laser hair removal for men is a rather pleasant and effective way to get rid of hated hairs.
Procedure as it is
Laser hair removal occurs due to the impact of a beam of light on the hair root in compliance with a certain wavelength and power. The root contains the pigment melanin, which, being exposed to light radiation, heats up and eventually collapses. Next, you can see howhair just falls out. It should be noted that during laser hair removal, the skin does not suffer from interaction with the device, since the laser acts remotely, without harming the tissues.
Indications and contraindications
There are other reasons why a man might consider laser hair removal for men. Hateful hairs are doubly disturbing if removing them with a simple razor creates an even more unpleasant effect - an allergy. It happens that some men are allergic to the components of shaving foam, and someone suffers from excessive skin sensitivity. The effect of irritation and itching will seem attractive to few people. For such men, epilation of a deep bikini by traditional methods is simply contraindicated. In addition, there are difficulties with hair removal in those men whom nature has awarded with intensive hair growth or hypertrichosis. This disease can only be bypassed with laser treatment.
Laser hair removal is a relatively safe procedure, however, there are some contraindications for it, which should be discussed with your doctor. This procedure is not carried out in the following cases:
- diseases of the heart and blood vessels;
- cancer and the presence of malignant tumors;
- infectious diseases accompanied by high fever;
- skin diseases in the area to be treated;
- diabetes mellitus;
- tattoos or moles in the treated area;
- fresh tan;
- individualradiation intolerance;
- naturally dark skin (in the case of old-style devices).
All these restrictions must be taken into account, as the procedure will not be possible without their elimination. It is worth remembering that for safety reasons, before laser hair removal, a man needs to be examined in the doctor's office.
The benefits of laser hair removal
Today, cosmetologists offer their clients many different ways of hair removal, each of which is divided into its own types. With such a variety of plans to do, for example, laser hair removal of the face, men can simply run up their eyes. Each such procedure is good in its own way. It turns out that everyone can choose what he likes. According to men's reviews of hair removal, the following advantages of the procedure can be distinguished.
Laser hair removal is considered one of the few procedures during which there is no severe pain. For example, hair removal of a beard in men with a razor, wax strips, shugaring, electrolysis and other means does not give the desired effect - in addition to the pain of a physical person, pain from disappointment overtakes, because the hairs, if they are removed with great difficulty, then return many times faster. Such suffering only destroys all desire in the bud.
Selectively affecting only the hair, the laser does not damage the skin, although it also contains melanin. Thanks to new types of lasers, the procedure can be performed on dark and swarthy skin without fear of scars and burns. Of course,the use of such a device will be more expensive, but will allow more people to join the "sacrament" of laser hair removal.
You can remove hair with laser hair removal on any part of the body, even in the bikini area. For men, hair removal of a similar orientation also takes place: not all men are content with bushy thickets in the intimate area. Even such a sensitive part of the body in people with delicate skin can be easily treated with a new generation laser.
Note
Unlike traditional hair removal methods - shugaring, waxing, shaving - the laser allows you to achieve the longest effect. After a full course of procedures, you can safely forget about the hair on the treated area. The retention period of the result can be from two to five years. If the color type of a person is ideally combined with the laser hair removal procedure, the smoothness of the skin in this case will be permanent.
Differences between male and female procedures
Of course, the processes occurring in the body of a man differ from those observed in the female. On the body of a man, the hairline occupies a large part in percentage terms: almost everywhere, except for the palms and feet, you can stumble upon hair. In addition to the increased growth of hair on the body, men also have a rigid hair structure. The latter factor is causing more male hair removal procedures.
No matter how stereotypes flourish in society, areas of the male body undergoing epilation,more numerous than in women. Ladies usually turn to salons with a request to epilate in the area of the armpits, on the legs, in the intimate area. The male list includes more sites. This includes: chest, back, chin, cheekbones, upper lip, nose, ears, bridge of the nose, neck.
Otherwise, the male procedure is no different from that used for women: the skin is also prepared before the session and requires the same care after it. The course of the procedure is absolutely identical: dark glasses are put on the client's eyes to protect his eyesight from harmful laser radiation, then with the help of a manipulator, the specialist precisely deals with the hated hairline.
However, the delicate procedure requires a “thin” approach: before the session, hair from problem areas should be removed with a simple razor, since the laser can affect hairs no more than 1 mm in length. Typically, such manipulations are carried out a day before the scheduled procedure, which will allow male hairs to grow to the desired length.
How many treatments will it take?
As mentioned earlier, men need more sessions than women. Unless, of course, they set out to remove hair in problem areas for a long, rather than short-term period, the motives here are different. A preliminary consultation in the doctor's office allows you to find out the required number of procedures to achieve a certain result. Already in the course of the course, the number of necessarysessions - monitoring the rate of hair growth helps here. The number of sessions depends on several factors. This includes: client color type, treated area, hair structure, hair density and so on.
Laser hair removal course
Usually a complete course for men includes about 10-15 procedures. The break between sessions can be from 3 weeks to 1.5 months. The duration of the break depends on how quickly the hair grows on the treated area. To get the most stable result, you will have to patiently go through the prescribed course. By the way, positive changes can be observed after the first session. Already after the first treatment, the hair grows much more slowly, the structure of the hair is softer, and the density of the hair will noticeably decrease.
Cost of treatments
The price of sessions, of course, is also an important factor. Not everyone is able to afford such a hair removal method, because among all the hardware procedures, laser hair removal is the most expensive.
The cost is calculated depending on the number and complexity of the procedures performed, the region of the sessions, the prestige of the clinic and other factors. There are clinics in which regular customers, that is, those who undergo more than 10 procedures, are offered discounts. Thus, it will be possible to calculate the approximate cost only after consultation with a specialist.
In closing
However, do not forget that prices in different regions may vary, so do not be surprised if when studying the price-sheets and in various clinics you will come across a total discrepancy. Here the principle “more expensive is better” is not always justified, because in little-known clinics the quality of service can be no worse than in the capital. It turns out that here you can only be guided by the advice of other customers, rely on the reviews of real people and other factors. But, as they say, no one is immune from getting to a specialist with a not very good track record.
