Can laser hair removal on male genitals be done?

Question

Reza Rod, MD · Answer

Both the male and female reproductive organs share a common developmental path.  The genitalia of men and women are very similar from an embryological perspective.  Seek out a provider that works with male hair removal so they'll be accustom to getting you the best results.  Plan on about five or more sessions about four to six weeks apart.  This is to get your hairs in their active phase of growth.  Keep in mind that for most people lasers are for laser hair reduction and not laser hair removal as it's normally called.  You might have to get touch ups now and then or you might be satisfied with your new, lighter hair pattern.
I wish you the best of luck in achieving your goals.

Hello , Laser hair removal can be done on the male genitals as well.  The light is made to only disrupt the hair follicles.  Not much recommended for the testicles.

David Jensen, DO · Answer

Yes, the laser or/and IPL should not harm the area, these machines that emit light only go so deep into the tissue.
