Introduction

Facial hair can be a source of self-consciousness for many people, especially when it appears in areas like the upper lip, chin, or cheeks. At Urban Skin and Hair Clinic, we offer Laser Facial Hair Removal, a safe and effective solution to permanently reduce facial hair, leaving your skin smooth and flawless. Say goodbye to the hassle of waxing, threading, and shaving, and enjoy long-lasting, hair-free skin with our advanced laser technology.

What is Facial Hair Removal?

Facial hair removal using laser technology is a non-invasive procedure that targets and destroys hair follicles with focused laser beams. The pigment in the hair absorbs the laser energy, which damages the follicle and prevents future hair growth. This treatment is highly effective in treating unwanted facial hair and is a long-lasting solution compared to traditional methods.

Causes of Unwanted Facial Hair

Excessive facial hair, or hirsutism, can be caused by several factors, including:

  • Hormonal Imbalances: Conditions like PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), menopause, or pregnancy can cause excessive hair growth on the face, especially on the chin, upper lip, or jawline.

  • Genetics: A family history of excessive facial hair can increase the likelihood of experiencing unwanted facial hair.

  • Age: As people age, hormonal changes can lead to the growth of coarse facial hair, particularly in women after menopause.

  • Medications: Certain medications, especially those containing steroids or other hormonal treatments, may promote the growth of unwanted facial hair.
  • Excessive Sun Exposure: Sun exposure can darken and thicken facial hair, especially in areas like the upper lip or chin.

Introduction

Facial hair reduction is challenging for both men & women. There are both short term solutions & quicker such as (Waxing, threading, tweezing, shaving) as well as long term and permanent facial hair removal solutions such as laser hair removal.

This laser treatment for hair removal uses highly concentrated beams with precision to target coarse and dark hair and destroy the follicles from the root. Hair on the mid-brow, forehead, cheeks, chin, hairline, jawline, lower face, lower lip, side locks and upper lip can be treated with a laser. Due to more demand for grooming in the corporate industry, nowadays men also go for permanent beard shaping and a well defined mustache look, hair removal on mid-brow, ears.

How does a laser work?

During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the hair follicles that produce hairs, making the hair weak which then falls out. The damaged hair follicle loses its ability to produce any further hair for a long time and sometimes it results in permanent hair reduction.

Preparing for facial laser hair removal

  • Avoid sun exposure in the days before treatment, as laser hair removal doesn’t work well on tanned skin.

  • Avoid peels or other chemical treatments in the week leading up to your procedure, which may irritate skin.

  • You may be told to shave or wax the area beforehand.

  • If possible, arrive at your appointment with clean, makeup-free skin.

  • Try to arrive with a low body temperature (i.e. don’t power walk to your appointment). If you’re warm to begin with, the laser may feel more uncomfortable.

  • Avoid aspirin or other anti-inflammatory drugs or herbal remedies that may increase bleeding.

  • Reschedule your appointment if you have a cold sore or other open cut on your face.
