### Laser Hair Removal for Men
If you’re looking for a more permanent solution to managing your pubic hair, laser hair removal is a popular option. It can save you time and effort in the long run, but are there any potential drawbacks to consider?
### Potential Health Risks
One concern that has been raised is whether there is a connection between laser hair removal in the pubic area and an increased risk of cancer in the testicles, prostate, or other genital regions.
#### Research Findings
While there is limited research specifically focusing on this topic, some studies suggest that there may be a slight increase in the risk of developing cancer in these areas after laser hair removal. However, more research is needed to establish a clear connection.
### Consult a Professional
Before making a decision about laser hair removal, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional or dermatologist who can provide personalized advice based on your individual health and situation.
### Conclusion
While laser hair removal can be a convenient option for managing pubic hair, it’s essential to weigh the potential risks and benefits. Stay informed and prioritize your health when making decisions about hair removal methods.
Why are you having to groom your pubes so often??
Webmd says it’s okay.

Don’t. Shave that is. It’s not that hideous and a lot of people don’t. Why give yourself one more fucking maintenance issue?
The answers to all of the questions you asked is no.
Now there are some things you may want to be aware of. Laser hair removal is fairly uncomfortable bordering on painful. Also it isn’t permanent. You will have to go for a few appointments to start, then go back every 6 months or so.
I’m not a doctor, but I’m a science enthusiast. The way I see it is that lasers are just light. They’re not even UV light, which is what we associate with sunburns and increased cancer risk. I’ve never heard of an increased cancer risk for laser hair removal.
Once a week or twice a week isn’t that often. What are you doing down there sculpting the next Mona Lisa ?
I use a cheap Amazon trimmer that cost me $25. it has a 3mm guard on it. takes me 3 minutes tops to trim, and it lasts over a month before I have to do it again. way easier than shaving, looks better, no stubble, and way faster. better for your skin too.
also, in general, **there is no permanent laser hair removal**. all of them require repeat treatments basically forever. expensive. not as “one and done” as it’s advertised.
Alright, i’m a 36M, I’ve done 6 laser sessions and called it quits.
Frankly I’m not a very hirsute person. But my pubic hair is dark and after 6 sessions it barely made a dent in the amount of hair I have down there. And fuck it hurts, the 2 worts spots are right over your dick and your butthole.
Now I do get waxed every 5 weeks, there’s a 2 days periods where the stubs are itchy but IMO the pain/worth it ratio is good. Get sugar « wax » if you can, your scrotum will thank you
Not a man but a woman doing laser hair removal and just wanna warn you that it hurts. They told me it’s 12 sessions to remove hair down there for women. Not sure about men. But it’s gonna be a whole painful thing. Though comparing wax vs laser on leg hair, waxing hurt worse so hopefully you can manage it.
Better idea: just don’t. It’s there for a reason. Nature intended you you to have it. There’s significance in that.
Besides, by the time you reach the kind of age you’re thinking about long term relationships, marriage, kids, people tend to prefer you have some, rather than shaving it all away.
I asked myself “why am I doing this?” and the answer I came to was “because I want to fit in/be attractive to other people”. When I asked myself the question “do I want to do this?”, the answer was that I didn’t. I prefer people have some fuzz, and find having none at all very unattractive. Those questions helped me to decide to stop.
I felt more attractive, more confident, more “grown up” and my wife prefers it too.
I use Nair body cream on my junk. It smells awful but works great.
Why wouldn’t you rather just go find real research? Why would you crowdsource this information in 2024?
Grow them hairs
Just stop and let it grow. Human beings survived for millennia before shaving was invented. The world will continue to turn.
No one is mentioning getting a Manzillan! Not permanent but if you go regularly enough the hair becomes super thin and sometimes doesn’t grow back in some spots.
Why do you care enough to do this??? I have trimmed/shaved the fellas only maybe 4 times in 3 decades.
No woman I’ve been with cares enough to say anything about it. Just have good hygiene and stop hating yourself
The manscape shaver is supposed to be good.
Hey I’m a laser hair technician and I suggest getting it done. But there are steps you must follow for optimal results.
1) Shave the day before your appointment. The laser only works on hair that is in the process of growing and you want to be clean bc burning hair smells gross.
2) Do NOT shave afterwards. Wait at least two weeks. The hair will begin to fall out and you should notice a difference in growth after the second or third appointment.
3) It hurts. It feels like your getting slapped with a rubber band, but only for the second the laser is doing it’s thing and then it stops. But it hurts.
4) Expect it to take at least 6 session, usually we tell people 12, and then you do have to get touch ups. I also know a bunch of people who just wax the few hairs that continue to grow.
PHR stands for “partial hair removal” not permanent. It definitely can be worth it tho.
I’m in the business better for the views.
And comfort
Just let it grow? Plenty of partners like a bush
Throwing it out there incase you live nearby one of these… foxy box does lazer hair removal on men! They’re super informative and kind. Very safe space.
Im just like you age wise ish. I got laser hair removal done but only halfway through my sessions. Noticed a big difference day one. Like in terms of hair being reduced considerably. Only downside tho it is fairly expensive depending on where you go etc. I go to a laser clinic where the person working there is certified etc. She did mention that more guys than you think come and get their bodies done. The main thing guys do is chest and back. But I opted to also do my arms, legs, ass, and crotch areas since iI saw results in the chest and back. I also knew that it wasn’t permanent, so I opted to go to less sessions to keep some of my hair so I dont end up like a pubescent boy lol. For me tho it has been completely worth it for the time and money I’ve spent so far. I have ideal hair tho, so super dark with light skin so she was able to dial in the heat more aggressively and when she did tho I barely felt any pain from it, but just might be my pain tolerance. I suggest getting a consultation and seeing how it works for your body and if it seems ok try a session or two. It is work tho, as in you have to shave every single square inch of your body to go get lasered beforehand
Edit: I should add that I was very hairy to begin with. So when I mentioned day one results it really was. Cuz about 50% of the hair shedded after 1-2 weeks or so and then the hair that was still there would eventually get hit again by the laser on the next session.
I just read recently where a guy went into a coma from sepsis due to an an ingrown hair being pulled from an area of his pubic region. This was due to the person shaving the said area.
Hair around this area is there for a reason. Tampering with it is at your own risk. Not sure why guy want to shave their nut sacks and bum cracks etc etc. It doesn’t make your dick look any bigger….
Home use one fda approved. Tria seems to work ok. Hair removal precision. Start slow and follow directions.
Just don’t shave
Just get a gold chain, some cologne and let it grow my guy.
Just don’t shave? Its there for a reason. Your body doesn’t just grow it for fun.
I got laser, balls still work
It is a fashion choice, so it is not a requirement, but there are practical reasons to groom as well. Do not feel like you have to shave, just trimming with a guard for stubble is fine. I use **Nair for Men**. It dissolves all hair in about 10 minutes then shower it off. My hair grows slow, so it is about once a month. No blades and it is pretty smooth with occasional stubble that is only felt but not seen. A second application can be done if any stubble is felt.
Laser removal has not negative side effects. It is using a laser to burn off hair, so there are effects, but they are superficial and heal.
