Laser Chest Hair Removal

Removing chest hair by laser is a popular procedure that is simple to perform and gives good results. Is it right for you? We'll try to answer your questions on laser hair removal for men and particularly on removing hair from the chest area.

Laser chest hair removal for men is done with a laser that produces pulsed light that targets the dark pigments in hair. The heat produced by the laser travels down the hair and damages the hair follicle preventing hair from growing. As it targets 'dark' pigments it's not going to work effectively on white, fair or red hair. The best results are obtained for dark hair on light skin.

The effect is not quite permanent but will last for many years. As men age the amount of hair on the chest increases so toughing up sessions may be necessary to remove this new growth. Laser hair removal has been approved by the FDA for hair 'reduction' not hair 'removal' and it is best used to thin out an otherwise too thick patch of chest hair.

If performed by experienced operators the procedure is safe although there is a small chance of some burning, blisters or other damage to the skin especially if the laser is wielded by an inexperienced operator.

The treatment may be painful, especially for those with thick dark hair where the heat is transmitted down the hair shaft most effectively. The pain has been reported to be worse for the first session and decreases over subsequent sessions.

Overall the use of laser hair removal for the chest is an effective method and good value for money as the results are very long lasting.
