Male facial hair removal by laser is becoming increasingly popular. Laser hair removal clinics in London, once the exclusive domain for women, now have more and more men coming through their doors every month as the word spreads.

With the explosion of social media and the power of influencers on platforms like Instagram who share their lifestyle, fitness and beauty regimes, more men have come to see the benefits of lasers.

Whether it be on the face, beard line, chest, or having the ‘back, sack and crack’ done, laser hair removal can help you stay groomed and look your best for longer.

Will Laser Work On A Man’s Face and Beard?

Yes! Laser hair removal is fantastic at removing unwanted facial hair on a man’s face. By treating those problem areas on the face, you can save time and money on shaving and waxing!

How Does Laser Hair Removal For Men Work?

Laser hair removal is a quick process where concentrated laser light is directed at the hair follicles to reduce regrowth. Lasers can work on all skin types and tones, so if you have light or dark skin, the laser can give you the results you are after.

Laser hair removal is not painful – it has been compared to a rubber band pinged against your skin. There is little downtime afterward. Skin may appear red and feel like it is sunburned afterward but this should gradually go away after a few hours.

You are also advised to stay away from activities that would make your skin hot; like saunas, steam rooms and exercise. High-factor SPF must also be worn to protect your skin, which is sensitive after laser.

Is Laser Suitable For All Skin Tones?

You may have heard that laser does not work on darker skin tones but this was the case when lasers were first invented. The modern lasers such as the Candela Gentlemax Pro that we use at London Premier Laser are advanced industry technology.

They are FDA-approved, medical grade 4 – the same used in hospitals and use the dual wavelength of Alexandrite and Nd: YAG, which gives excellent results on most skin tones and types.

Who Is Male Facial Laser Hair Removal For?

  • You want to remove a full beard
  • Laser hair removal can help you achieve a clean-cut look, without the bothersome little razor cuts.
  • You want to shape your beard. Like a trim, neat appearance? You can tighten up your beard with targeted laser hair removal. For example, if your beard creeps up on your cheeks or bothers you on the neck, you can elect to have that hair removed.
  • You want a little extra room in your morning routine. Have that second cup of coffee; you’ve saved time not having to shave!
  • You want a long-term solution. Laser Hair Removal provides a long-term solution for facial hair reduction.

For anyone struggling with excessive hair growth or hirsutism, laser hair removal can also be an effective solution to tackling the symptoms and removing facial hair.

How Much Will Laser On My Face Cost?

Laser hair removal requires more than one session. All your hair will not disappear after just one session. Larger areas will need more sessions. If you are just having your beard line defined or shaped, then this may be done in a handful of sessions. Larger areas will need between 4–8 sessions.

Prices for laser hair removal on the face start from £22. Buying a package is more cost-effective than single pay-as-you-go sessions. See our special offers, which are updated monthly.
