Laser Hair Removal for Men
In the past, if you were someone who suffered from too much body hair on your chest, stomach, back or thighs, your only option was to shave it, wax it or zap it, none of which gave any kind of permanent result. Laser hair removal, on the other hand, can remove or thin your hair with long lasting, almost permanent results, without damaging or irritating the skin.
Quick Info
- Here at Beautologie, we provide the gold standard laser in permanent hair reduction known as Light Sheer Duet™.
- The light sheer targets the follicle of the hair and permanently shuts it off.
- Unlike many laser devices for hair removal, the Duet is very comfortable employing a patented vacuum assisted/cool tip technology to maximize patients comfort and experience.
- The Light Sheer Duet™ can be used for virtually all skin types as it is one of the most sophisticated lasers for laser hair removal.
- After the procedure, patients can return to regular activity with sunscreen applied on exposed areas that have been treated with the laser.
- We can target all areas including facial hair, under arms, legs, back, arms, and more.
Laser Hair Removal for Men
Men today are taking better care of themselves than ever before. They are working out regularly and eating right, keeping their bodies toned, fit and functioning well into the 60’s, 70’s and beyond. They want their outsides to match how good they feel on the inside. Which is why all forms of “manscaping” (high end skincare, facials, laser hair removal) are on the rise. In fact, laser hair removal was the second most popular minimally invasive procedure for men in the latest survey conducted by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). And you know why? Because it works.
Laser Hair Removal for Men
In the past, if you were someone who suffered from too much body hair on your chest, stomach, back or thighs, your only option was to shave it, wax it or zap it, none of which gave any kind of permanent result. This meant having to repeat the process either daily or weekly, often resulting in skin irritation, bumps, in-grown hairs, and skin discoloration. Laser hair removal, on the other hand, can remove or thin your hair with long lasting, almost permanent results, without damaging or irritating the skin.
Lasers work by penetrating the hair shaft and destroying the hair root. Although this doesn’t technically “kill” the follicle, it does make it very difficult for the hair to grow back. Effective at treating all areas of the body, laser hair removal at Beautologie Cosmetic Surgery and Laser Center in Bakersfield is also excellent for removing or thinning out facial hair, ear, and nose hair. The number of procedures needed really depends on the area being treated, but between 5 to 7 sessions is the average. Laser hair removal treatment time can be a few minutes for something like the upper lip or up to an hour for a large area such as the back. Although the skin may look as if it has a sunburn for a few days, most patients are back to their regular lives almost immediately. Contact our Bakersfield office today to find out more.

FAQ
Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses a laser to target and destroy the hair follicles, preventing them from re growing hair. The laser emits a concentrated beam of light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, damaging the follicle and inhibiting further hair growth.
Laser hair removal can be used on a variety of areas for men, including the chest, back, arms, legs, and face.
Laser hair removal is generally safe when performed by a qualified and experienced medical professional. However, as with any medical procedure, there is always a small risk of side effects, such as skin irritation, redness, or blistering.
The number of laser hair removal treatments needed varies depending on the individual patient and the specific treatment area. Generally, several treatments are required to achieve optimal results, spaced several weeks apart to allow the hair follicles to cycle through their growth phase.
Laser hair removal can be slightly uncomfortable, with some patients describing the sensation as a mild stinging or snapping sensation. However, the treatment is typically well-tolerated, and most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
The results of laser hair removal can be long-lasting, with many patients experiencing a significant reduction in hair growth after several treatments. However, the results are not permanent, and some hair regrowth may occur over time.
There is typically no downtime required after laser hair removal, and most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. However, it is important to avoid sun exposure and to follow the provider's post-treatment instructions to minimize the risk of skin irritation or other complications.
While laser hair removal is generally safe, there are some risks and potential side effects associated with the treatment, including skin irritation, redness, blistering, and changes in skin pigmentation. It is important to discuss these risks with your healthcare provider before undergoing any cosmetic procedure.

Liposuction for Men
There are a number of different liposuction techniques practiced by the surgeons at Beautologie Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics. In general, since men have more fibrous fat than women, ultra-sound or laser liposuctions are the techniques of choice. Both “melt” the fat, thus making it easier to remove.
