Laser facial hair removal

Laser facial hair removal is the most effective way to get rid of unwanted hair. With its help, after a few procedures, you can achieve absolute skin smoothness and forget about a razor, tweezers, or wax depilation forever.

The procedure is equally popular among women and men. It allows you to remove both peach fuzz on the upper lip and hair on the bridge of the nose, as well as heavy stubble on the cheeks or cheekbones.

Laser hair removal helps to get rid of the hair in the following areas:

• upper lip;
• chin;
• the bridge of the nose;
• nose;
• ears;
• forehead;
• temples;
• cheeks;
• neck.

Laser hair removal has several advantages over other types of hair removal. First, it allows you to permanently eliminate unwanted facial hair, while other methods provide only short-term results and often lead to skin irritation.

The main advantages of laser facial hair removal are:

• complete hair removal after a course of sessions;
• lack of irritation on the skin and other traces;
• comfortable procedure;
• aesthetic appearance.

Before the procedure, the beautician examines the area to be treated and sets the necessary device parameters depending on the type of skin and hair. After that, the cosmetologist applies a special gel on the skin and sequentially passes the entire area with a laser. Finally, the doctor removes the remaining gel and applies an anti-inflammatory cream to the skin when finished.

In general, the session takes up to half an hour, and the laser treatment of the face is no more than 5-10 minutes. At this time, the patient feels only warmth produced by the laser and occasionally a slight tingling sensation. The laser only affects the hair follicles, so the skin is not damaged, and no traces remain.

After the procedure, it is recommended:

• Apply anti-inflammatory or moisturizing cream on the skin for 1-2 days (if necessary);
• For 3 days do not take a hot bath, do not visit baths, saunas, and swimming pools;
• Do not apply alcohol-containing products on the skin for 3 days;
• Do not sunbathe for 2 weeks, and before going outside, apply sunscreen with an SPF level of at least 35 units on your face.

For complete hair removal, you need to undergo a course of procedures. On average, it consists of 8-10 sessions with an interval of 1-2 months. The number of sessions depends on the thickness and stiffness of the hair.

Up to 30% of hair falls out after the first session. After that, the rest grows more slowly and becomes lighter and thinner. Laser hair removal allows you to remove any type of hair except gray.

There are few contraindications to laser hair removal, and most of them are relative. That is, the session can be carried out after recovery or improvement in well-being.

The main contraindications to laser procedures are photodermatitis and other skin diseases, fresh tanning, acute diseases, exacerbation of chronic pathologies, autoimmune disorders, decompensated diabetes mellitus, malignant neoplasms, etc.

If you have chronic diseases or are undergoing drug therapy, inform your beautician before the procedure.
