Hair removal.

16th June 2025

Answer: Hello Graeme

Laser hair removal might seem counterintuitive for a man with hair loss, but there are several specific benefits, especially when strategically used. We have treated many men over the years with patchy hair growth.
Here’s a breakdown tailored to this scenario:

1. Creates a Cleaner Aesthetic
Men with male pattern baldness often experience thinning on the scalp but retain dense hair on the sides and back. Laser hair removal can:

Balance the look by removing patchy or uneven hair growth.

Smooth the neckline and upper cheeks, making grooming easier and tidier.

2. Enhances Scalp Hair Restoration or Shaving Results
For men who:

Shave their heads, laser hair removal reduces the “5 o’clock shadow” effect and avoids ingrown hairs or irritation.

Have undergone or are considering a hair transplant, laser can clean up donor areas or non-transplanted zones for a neater contrast.

3. Defines Facial Hair Edges
Even with hair loss on the scalp, many men grow facial hair. Laser hair removal can:

Sharpen beard lines, reducing the need for daily shaving.

Remove unwanted stray hairs on cheeks, neck, or under the eyes.

4. Body Hair Management
Hair loss on the head doesn’t preclude excessive body hair, which may be undesirable or feel unbalanced. Laser can help:

Reduce chest, back, or shoulder hair for a more proportionate look.

Target ear or nose hair, which often becomes more prominent with age.

5. Low Maintenance Grooming
Laser offers long-term reduction, ideal for men who want to streamline their grooming routine—especially if hair loss has already led them to embrace simpler, cleaner styles.

Clinical Tip
Our Alex and ND yag laser works best on darker hair where their is a contrasting skin colour, for lighter hair colour and or darker skin look for a clinic that has a diode laser.

Kind regards
Dr Victoria
