Most areas that can be treated with laser hair removal on women can also be treated for men, with the back, shoulders, and chest being some of the most requested by male clients. Laser hair removal for men at our midtown Toronto clinic, IGBeauty, covers a wide range of areas, and which ones make sense for you depends on your goals and hair growth pattern.
Here's a closer look at the areas men most often ask about, from the back and chest to more detailed treatments like the Manzilian when seeking laser hair removal services at local laser clinics.
Back and Shoulders
These are among the most commonly requested areas for men, since they're difficult to shave or wax consistently on your own and tend to have denser hair growth. Because the back in particular is hard to reach without help, it's an area where at-home methods tend to fall short compared to a treatment plan handled by a provider.
Chest
Chest hair removal is another frequently treated area, whether clients want it fully cleared or just reduced and more manageable. Some clients choose a more selective approach here, treating only certain sections rather than the entire chest.
Neck and Beard Line
Cleaning up the neck and beard line is a popular option for men who want a sharper, more consistent shave line without daily upkeep. This is typically treated as a smaller, more detailed area than the back or chest, since precision matters more around the jawline.
Legs
Full or partial leg treatment is available as well, following the same process used for other larger body areas. Clients sometimes choose to treat just the lower legs rather than the full leg, depending on their goals.
Manzilian
For clients interested in more thorough treatment, our clinic also offers the Manzilian, the male version of a Brazilian treatment. Per our own published guidance, full results typically take five to seven sessions, spaced six to eight weeks apart, which is a longer course than some of the smaller areas above.
Face
Some men also treat areas of the face, depending on their grooming goals. This is generally approached carefully given how visible and sensitive facial skin is, which is part of why a consultation matters before any facial treatment begins.
Skin and Hair Considerations
Results and the number of sessions needed can vary based on hair colour, density, and skin tone, which is why a consultation is used to assess candidacy for each area rather than assuming the same plan works for everyone. Larger areas like the back and legs are typically assessed separately from smaller, more detailed areas like the neck, beard line, and face. Treatment settings are adjusted area by area rather than applied uniformly across the whole body, since hair density and skin sensitivity can differ noticeably even between two areas on the same client.
Simplify Hair Removal with Laser Hair Removal
A treatment schedule is typically built around your specific areas and hair growth pattern rather than a single fixed plan, so the best way to know what to expect is an in-person consultation with our experienced laser hair removal experts at IGBeauty. Combining multiple areas into one plan, such as the back with the chest, is also common and can be discussed at that first visit, along with any questions about how areas like the Manzilian or face fit into your overall goals.
