Question:
I’m 24, male, and I have excessive underarm hair. It’s not that I object to having hair there, it’s just a bit much. I’d still like enough to preserve my masculinity. I’d like to reduce it by about two thirds. Is it possible to remove a certain amount of hair with laser hair removal, or does it have to be all or none?
Answer:
It is an interesting dilemma that you have but, one that is easily remediable. Laser hair removal is not a one session procedure. Laser hair removal requires between 4 and 6 sessions in order to effectively reduce your hair. I would suggest having 2 laser hair removal sessions in order to decrease the amount of underarm hair you notice. If you would like to reduce the density further, then have another laser hair removal session.
