Hair removal for man these days can include every part of his body, from his head to his feet. But no matter from what part of the body a man chooses to remove hair, he needs to be aware of the dangerous side effects of hair removal processes.
Beginning with laser treatments as the newest, and most expensive, hair removal for man:
One man recently described the sensation of laser hair removal as, "A rubber band being snapped against the skin", with each pulse of laser light.
Many a man has reported horrible rashes after hair removal by laser.
But the very worst horror story about hair removal by laser has to be that there have been at least two deaths attributed to the use of the cream, Lidocaine, commonly used to numb the skin before laser hair removal.
Even the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health state that Lidocaine can result in seizures, cardiac arrest, and death when too much has been applied on the skin, in an effort to dull the pain of laser hair removal.
Electrolysis as a method of hair removal for a man involves inserting a needle into each hair follicle and using an electric current or chemical, and sometimes both, to literally shock the root of the hair. Obviously, this process requires a topical anesthetic ...
Aside from being painful, because each hair is treated individually, it's very time consuming, requiring treatments on a weekly or monthly basis for at least a year, at $25-$45 per treatment.
But the worst part is this hair removal for a man creates swelling, redness, bleeding pores that lasts for several days and may even cause permanent scarring.
The waxing method, which involves ripping the hair out by the root, can't help but be replete with horror stories. As a hair removal process for a man, it really is as painful as you may have imagined and also requires using a numbing gel or spray.
Even though it's relatively inexpensive and lasts for several weeks, waxing as a hair removal method for a man is known to create ingrown hairs and leaves the skin swollen, with red splotches and almost too sensitive to touch.
Using a cream or lotion depilatory, which basically turns hair to goo with harsh chemicals, as a hair removal method for a man also has hundreds of horrible stories, mostly about severely burned skin. Not to mention the awful smell when these chemicals mix with the hair ...
Shaving with a wet razor can be flat out dangerous if it's not done properly. It's doubtful you need a run down on all the horrible side effects this hair removal method for man can create.
With all of these hair removal methods, there is the additional side effect that you must not allow your newly naked skin anywhere near the sun for 24-48 hours. Unless you want to extend the duration of skin irritations.
And with the exception of shaving, none of these hair removal methods can be used by a man on any/every part of his body.
Fortunately, Leslie Peterson from Maui, Hawaii knows about other tools that better accomplish hair removal for a man safely, easily, quickly and from ANY part of his body.
