The beard, a sign of masculinity or not...
Laser hair removal in Paris is increasingly becoming a staple in the beauty routine of Parisians. For aesthetic or hygienic reasons, men are flocking to clinics or rushing to the special men’s packages offered by major retailers. Indeed, some are tired of their excessive hairiness and others can no longer tolerate the skin irritations associated with shaving. To avoid these daily inconveniences, some men are opting for laser hair removal for the beard performed by a doctor. It is advisable to carry out this medical procedure once the hair system is mature, which means in the absence of down.
While the beard has long been synonymous with masculinity, it has now almost become has been. And for good reason, male icons generally display hairless bodies, not to mention their well-groomed faces! It is all a matter of taste; some have faces suited to beards and need to assert their masculinity with hair; for others, it will be about removing the hair that disrupts their beauty routine.
Why choose laser hair removal?
Permanent hair removal destroys the hair follicle via its melanin (pigment). Indeed, the laser will emit heat to raise the hair's temperature to around 70°. The hair will then be eliminated and the treated germinative area will be sterilised. New hairs will not be able to implant, and the skin will suffer no lesions. This is known as selective photothermolysis. Before each session, the doctor will determine the device settings to tailor the laser action to the patient's skin. The emitted light beams will allow for a very intense pulse.
Different areas of the face are highly requested by men. This will involve removing hair around the nose, the glabellar region, and the beard. Indeed, laser hair removal of the beard will allow it to be thinned out, reduce daily irritation sensations, decrease the occurrence of folliculitis related to hair infection, or prevent ingrown hairs. The beard constantly renews itself, so it is advisable to undergo closely spaced laser sessions (between 4 and 6 weeks) to eliminate as many hairs in the growth phase as possible. The treated area may not appear uniform after the first session but will become much more homogeneous over time with regrowth. This facial area remains delicate, so applying a numbing cream will enhance your comfort.
