Hair Removal for Men

Welcome to Olakino Laser + Skin, your gateway to newfound confidence through Laser Hair Removal for Men in Victoria!

At Olakino Laser + Skin, we understand that grooming is not just a choice but a path to self-assurance. Whether it’s the masterful shaping of an unruly uni-brow or the liberation from unwanted ear, back, or chest hair, we’re your go-to destination. Discover the art of looking and feeling your best, exclusively with Olakino Laser + Skin, the premier choice for male removal in Victoria.

We believe men should never have to hide their confidence, even on a scorching 90-degree day at the beach or on the water. We understand the discomfort and self-consciousness that come with hairy backs, chests, necks irritated by shaving, and the unsightly issues of razor bumps, itchy patches, and stubborn ingrown hairs, which can lead to embarrassing red papules and pustules. Worse yet, these conditions can become chronic and infected, potentially causing permanent scarring. Let Olakino Laser + Skin liberate you from these concerns and empower you to step into the world with unshakable self-assurance!

We are here to change the narrative on male grooming. While many men traditionally consider hair removal in the spring, we’ve got a different strategy. The cooler, crisper months of fall and winter are your secret allies. Why? Because sun avoidance is crucial during treatment.

By beginning your hair removal journey in the fall, you’re setting yourself up for a smooth, confident, and hair-free summer. Trust Olakino to help you make the most of every season, starting with the perfect winter groundwork.

Hormones orchestrate the process of hair growth in men and wield considerable influence over the intricacies of hair removal techniques.

Understanding hair removal for men is like deciphering a straightforward story driven by testosterone. For instance, a man in his twenties with higher testosterone levels may require more sessions compared to a man in his forties. Consistent maintenance visits are also essential for long-lasting results.

I’m in the process of getting laser hair removal on my armpits with Virginie. The thickness of my hair completely changed and I barely grow any hair after 3 treatments (I have 2 more to go). Virginie and everyone at Olakino are so friendly and helpful that even though the hair removal process is a little painful I look forward to my monthly treatment!
