We are continuing our series of articles discussing common reasons why men choose to have laser hair removal performed on their underarms. Our previous article covered the fact that some men prefer to have a clean look when wearing a sleeveless shirt or no shirt at all. We also discussed how body odor is the result of bacteria mixing with sweat and since wet hair takes a long time to dry, having no underarm hair can significantly reduce body odor. Today, we will look at two more reasons why men opt to have hair removal laser treatment performed on their underarms.

Athletic Reasons

Some athletes choose to have hair removal laser treatment performed on their underarms. Athletes participating in sports where their attire is either a sleeveless top (i.e., track and field) or no top at all (i.e., swimming, diving) are more likely to opt for laser hair removal.

Partners Preference

In some cases, a man’s romantic partner may prefer hairless underarms. When this is the case, hair removal laser treatment of the underarms is often accompanied by laser hair removal of the full arms, back, and chest. Some men even opt for full body hair removal.

All women have facial hair. However, when it becomes excessive, course, and/or thick, it can be difficult to manage and cause issues with self-confidence. One solution to this problem is laser hair removal.

We are continuing our series of articles discussing some of the most common causes of excess facial hair in women. Our previous article discussed how genetics and hormones can cause an increase in facial hair growth. We also touched on how issues with the adrenal glands and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) are also culprits.  Today, we will look at two more reasons why women can experience excess facial hair.

Medications

Certain medications, supplements, and anabolic steroids can cause an increase in facial hair growth. If you need to take a medicine that causes excess facial hair for a long period of time, then hair removal laser treatment may be an option to consider.

Prior Shaving

If you ever made it a habit to shave your facial hair with a razor, it can cause your facial hair to grow back thicker. While this doesn’t always happen with every women, it is common, which is why shaving is not the best hair removal treatment. Laser hair removal with an FDA cleared medical laser definitely delivers the best results.

Excessive facial hair in women can be a source of embarrassment for a woman of any age. We are sensitive to this and have treated hundreds of women who desire permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers can perform hair removal laser treatment on the full face or specific areas such as the chin, upper lip, and sideburns.  Our next series of articles will cover some of the most common causes of excessive facial hair in women.

Genetics

Genetics plays a significant role in almost everything related to our bodies, including facial hair growth. If you have a close family member with a lot of facial hair or have a cultural background that tends to have more than the average amount of facial hair, then you are also likely to have it.

Adrenal Gland

Adrenal gland disorders can also contribute to excessive facial hair.  Adrenal glands produce hormones, so if there is a problem with these glands, then it could affect your hormones and thus contribute to excessive facial hair.

We are continuing our series of articles addressing some of the most common questions about laser hair removal. Our previous article addressed how laser hair removal does not cause the hair to grow back thicker. We also discussed how hair removal laser treatment does not expose you to any radiation whatsoever. We then covered how full body hair removal is possible, especially when using an FDA cleared medical laser and how you can return to work and most regular activities after hair removal laser treatment. Today, we will address more concerns that prevent some people from seeking hair removal laser treatment.

“Laser Hair Removal Won’t Work on My Skin Type”

A common myth is that laser hair removal is only effective on people with a certain skin type. This is simply untrue. Hair removal laser treatment can be performed on all skin types and tones. It is safe and effective when the laser hair removal center uses an FDA cleared medical laser that is operated by trained technicians. If you are seeking permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is a reputable provider as our trained technicians perform laser hair removal using the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser.

“I’ve Heard That Hair Removal Laser Treatment is as Painful as Electrolysis”

This is not true. Electrolysis is a very painful procedure that rips the hair from the follicle. Hair removal laser treatment is a painless procedure that, at most, feels like tiny pricks to the skin.

“I’ve Heard Laser Hair Removal Can Cause Hair to Grow Back Thicker”

While there are some forms of hair removal that can cause hair to grow back thicker, this is simply not true when it comes to hair removal laser treatment. Laser hair removal treats the hair follicles, so they are unable to produce new hair. When laser hair removal is properly performed using a medical laser, the results are permanent hair removal. Manhattan Laser Centers uses the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser.

“My Friend Told Me Not to Get Hair Removal Laser Treatment Because of Radiation Exposure”

This is not true. Lasers work by emitting light energy. No radiation or radioactive material is used when performing laser hair removal.
