STON Myeongdong · Laser Hair Removal
Stuck on how far to go?
Men's Brazilian
Hair here grows coarse on thin skin, and the laser plan is built around that. Settle the area first and the rest of the talk gets easier.
Book a consultationBrazilian hair removal takes the genital area and around it as its range. It can also be split into parts, such as the groin only or around the anus only, so the range is set together in the consultation. GentleMax Pro Plus holds a 755nm alexandrite and a 1064nm Nd:YAG together. Which wavelength and what strength it runs at is decided at your visit, once hair texture and skin condition have been checked.
A device that picks between two wavelengths
Candela, the manufacturer, lists the two wavelengths 755nm and 1064nm along with DCD cooling for the surface. The choice turns on how thick and deep the hair is and on skin tone.

The same device, judged area by area
The skin here is thin, naturally darker and often rubbed, so the wavelength, energy and cooling are set again for the area. If you have reacted before, we start there.

Before your consultation
How far does men's Brazilian hair removal go?
Laser hair removal covering the genital area and what sits next to it. It can be taken in sections, the groin alone or just around the anus, so the range is agreed together when we talk.
Does one session finish it? How is the interval set?
One session does not close it. Each round we check the hair still there and how the skin answered, then set the next settings and the gap; the number of rounds differs by person.
Does it hurt a lot?
Coarse hair over thin skin means the sting here can run higher than elsewhere. Energy and cooling are set to match your condition, and whether to use numbing cream first is agreed when we talk.
Is there anything to be careful about before and after?
Plucking or waxing leaves no root for the laser to aim at, so hold off on them beforehand. Afterwards, while redness is still there, stay away from saunas, hard exercise and tight clothing that rubs.
