The beard, a sign of masculinity or not…
Laser hair removal in Paris is increasingly becoming a part of the male beauty routine for Parisians. For aesthetic or hygienic reasons, men are flocking to salons or rushing to purchase special male packages offered at major retailers.

To avoid these daily inconveniences, some men are turning to laser hair removal for beards performed by a qualified medical professional. It is advisable to undergo this medical procedure once the hair system has matured, meaning in the absence of fine hair.
While the beard has long been synonymous with masculinity, it has almost become has been today. And rightly so, as male icons typically show off hairless bodies, not to mention their perfectly groomed faces! It all comes down to personal taste; some have faces that suit a beard and feel the need to assert their masculinity with hair; for others, it's about eliminating the hair that disrupts their beauty routine.
Why opt for laser hair removal ?
Permanent hair removal destroys the hair bulb through its melanin (pigment). Indeed, the laser emits heat so that the hair temperature rises to around 70°. The hair will then be eliminated, and the treated germinative area will be sterilised. New hairs will not be able to establish themselves, and the skin will not suffer any lesions. This is known as selective photothermolysis. Before each session, the medical professional will determine the device settings to tailor the laser action to the patient’s skin. The emitted light beams will provide a very intense pulse.
Several areas of the face are highly sought after by men. This will involve removing hair from the nose, the glabellar area, and the beard. Indeed, laser hair removal of the beard will enable it to be thinned further, reduce daily irritation sensations, lessen the occurrence of folliculitis caused by hair infection, or prevent ingrown hairs. The beard constantly renews itself, so it is advisable to schedule close session intervals (between 4 and 6 weeks) to eliminate as many hairs as possible in the growth phase. The treated area may not appear uniform after the first session but will become much more homogeneous as regrowth occurs. This area of the face remains delicate, therefore applying a numbing cream will enhance your comfort.
