Answers to popular questions
Doctors at the K+31 clinic answered frequently asked questions about laser hair removal:
Is it safe to do laser hair removal on your beard?
Yes, laser hair removal in the beard area is safe if the session is carried out correctly. The skin on the face is especially sensitive, so the specialist selects individual settings of the device to avoid complications.
Why do some men experience temporary hair growth after laser hair removal?
This rare phenomenon is called paradoxical hypertrichosis. It is caused by the thermal effect of the laser stimulating previously inactive hair follicles. When this effect occurs, the doctor selects new parameters for the procedure or adds additional sessions.
Is it possible to perform laser hair removal on skin with tattoos?
No, hair removal is not performed on areas of skin with tattoos. The laser can destroy the pigment, cause a burn or damage the design. If it is necessary to treat the area next to the tattoo, the doctor will bypass the area.
Is there an age limit for laser hair removal for men?
Epilation is allowed for men of any age, but most often it is performed from the age of 18, when the hormonal background becomes stable. The session is also effective for mature men. However, gray hair requires more sessions, since it reacts worse to the laser.
Can laser hair removal change skin color?
Sometimes patients with dark or tanned skin may experience temporary lightening or darkening of the treated areas. This is due to incorrectly selected settings or failure to follow the post-treatment instructions.
How to care for your skin if it becomes tight and flaky after the procedure?
These phenomena after epilation are considered normal. To reduce discomfort, use moisturizing creams or products with panthenol. Avoid scrubs and other aggressive cosmetics for a week. Moisturize your skin up to 3 times a day.
How to choose between diode and alexandrite laser?
The type of laser depends on the characteristics of your skin and hair. Alexandrite laser is suitable for light skin with dark hair. Diode laser is used on any skin type, including tanned skin. It is considered more universal, but may require more procedures.
Can I have laser hair removal if I have psoriasis or eczema?
In case of psoriasis or eczema, hair removal is possible. The session is carried out only in the remission stage, when there is no active inflammation, rash or plaque on the skin. Skin areas with active lesions are not treated. It is important to warn the doctor about the diagnosis and provide information about the current treatment in order to select the appropriate laser settings and exclude complications. After the procedure, it is recommended to use additional moisturizers and anti-inflammatory agents to prevent exacerbation.
What is the difference between depilation and epilation?
The procedures differ in the type of hair removal. Depilation removes only the part of the hair that protrudes above the skin. During laser hair removal, the beam acts on the hair follicle and removes the hair along with the root, which gives a longer-lasting result.
How long does laser hair removal last for men?
The duration of hair removal depends on the area being treated: for armpits it takes 15-20 minutes, for the back or chest - from 50 minutes to 1.5 hours.
What length should the hair be before the procedure, and is it necessary to shave it?
It is recommended to trim your hair to a length of 1-2 mm a couple of days before the session. This is necessary for precise and safe laser action on the hair follicles.
Is it possible to do laser hair removal in summer?
You should avoid laser hair removal during periods of active exposure to sunlight. Tanned skin increases the risk of developing side effects. It is preferable to carry out procedures in the autumn-winter period or use protection from ultraviolet radiation.
Does laser hair removal reduce skin sensitivity?
Hair removal does not affect the sensitivity of the skin, since the laser effect is limited to the hair follicles and does not affect the nerve endings.
How does laser hair removal affect sweating?
Laser hair removal does not affect the sweat glands, since they are located deeper than the laser impact zone.
Are there any risks to internal organs with laser hair removal on the abdomen?
The laser affects only the skin and does not penetrate deep into the body. The procedure does not interfere with the functioning of internal organs.

Why laser hair removal is necessary for men
Men choose laser hair removal for the following reasons:
Regular shaving leads to irritation, especially in men with increased skin sensitivity. Laser hair removal in the armpit area reduces sweating, which is important for hyperhidrosis.
Swimmers and bodybuilders choose hair removal to improve the appearance of the body during competitions. In everyday life, smooth skin increases male self-esteem.
Course of laser hair removal procedures
A course of laser hair removal for men consists of 6-10 procedures, depending on the thickness and structure of the hair. Breaks between sessions vary from 4 to 8-10 weeks.
Unlike women, men's hair grows thicker and reacts differently to treatment. It is recommended to strictly adhere to the session schedule to minimize the risk of missing growth phases and achieve uniform results.
