Some clinics publish one price for everybody and some publish two columns, and where two columns exist the gap is entirely about how much skin is being treated rather than about who is on the table. This page reads the published men's figures at the clinics in this record, area by area, and says where the columns are identical and where they are not.
Where the men's column is the same
At Skinography in Los Angeles, which publishes both columns, the small facial areas are identical: upper lip $15 and $15, chin $15 and $15, between eyebrows $15 and $15, sideburns $20 and $20, front and back of neck $20 and $20, cheeks $25 and $25, under arms $25 and $25, full arms $90 and $90, and feet or toes $15 and $15. That is most of the menu, and it is worth knowing, because the assumption that men pay a premium across the board is not what the published figures show. Where the areas are the same size the prices are the same.
Where it is not
The differences are all on the large areas. Chest is $40 for women and $115 for men. Full back is $75 and $150. Full legs are $145 and $175. A full bikini is $45 and $70, and buttocks are $45 and $60. Full body is $350 and $400, and full face is $30 and $35. The pattern is consistent: torso areas carry the largest premium, limbs a modest one, and faces almost none. A clinic that publishes a single price for a man's chest is either averaging or expecting to adjust at consultation, and it is fair to ask which.
What a men's course comes to
At the published men's figures, a chest course of six to eight sessions is $690 to $920 and a full back course is $900 to $1,200. Both together are the common request and come to roughly $1,600 to $2,100 over a course, before any package discount. Bluepoint in Las Vegas prices the same territory by band with no columns at all, at $225 for Large Areas covering chest and upper back and $250 for X-Large covering full back. On a band menu a man and a woman pay the same, which for a large torso area is usually the cheaper answer for men.
How to price a men's course
Use the clinic's own name for the area. Facial areas overlap and menus disagree about where one ends. Quote the area as the menu names it. Ask for the session figure and the session count. The two multiplied is the course price, which is the only figure worth comparing between clinics. Ask whether facial areas bundle. Several small facial areas often price better as a partial or full face line than added up individually. Ask what maintenance costs. Facial hair is the area people top up longest, so the post-course single session price matters more here than anywhere.
Questions people ask about laser hair removal for men
Does laser hair removal cost more for men?
Only on large areas, at clinics that publish two columns. At Skinography the facial areas, under arms and full arms are identical, while chest, back, legs and full body carry a men's premium.
What does mens laser hair removal cost for chest and back?
Skinography publishes $115 per session for the chest and $150 for a full back. Over a six to eight session course that is roughly $1,600 to $2,100 for both.
Are band priced clinics better for men?
Often, for large torso areas. Bluepoint prices by band with no columns, so a man's chest and a woman's chest cost the same $225. On small areas a granular menu is usually cheaper.
How many sessions do men need?
Clinics sell this as a course for everybody and the count depends on the area and the hair. Ask the clinic you are quoting to put its expected session count in writing, and multiply.
