Hair removal for men

Posted on 09 Feb, 2012

Excessive facial or body hair can be just as problematic for men as it is for women; today’s society demonstrates a marked preference for smooth and hair-free skin for both sexes. Men who have extensive hair growth all over their body can find it a source of great embarrassment, particularly if the hair is growing on the back or shoulders.

Body hair in men poses all sorts of problems. Many men can start to feel extremely self-conscious about the way they look and avoid certain situations like swimming baths or the beach. Hair removal can also be difficult, especially for areas of the body that are hard to reach!

Shaving is not a terribly practical solution, as it needs to be done frequently and carries the risk of shaving cuts, stubble, rashes and ingrowing hairs. Waxing can be very painful and needs to be carried out by a professional. Electrolysis removes hairs permanently, but as it treats each hair individually, it can take a long time to treat large areas.

IPL offers a fast and effective way to permanently reduce someone’s amount of body hair; it targets the individual hairs, destroying their follicle and root, and treating the back can take as little as 60 minutes.
