Facial Hair Removal
Laser hair removal specialists can typically remove facial hair on almost any area of the face except near the eyes. (The eyes are very sensitive to the laser, and great care must be taken when working around them.
Common facial treatment areas include the lip, chin, sides of the face, and sideburns. Hair above the eyebrows is also sometimes treated.
Besides genetic predisposition to excess hair, women who have gone through pregnancy, taking birth control pills, or who are on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) often experience undesired hair growth on the face, for which the laser hair removal technique is usually ideal.
Whereas shaving inevitably results in unsightly stubble, and bleaching, plucking or waxing requires constant maintenance, laser hair treatments immediately decrease the thickness and coarseness of hair, resulting in dramatic reduction and often complete elimination.
Individuals with medical conditions that result in excessive hair growth, such as Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or other syndromes of hormonal imbalance, often use laser hair removal for dramatic reductions in the amount and coarseness of undesired hair on the face (and elsewhere).
Consult a qualified San Diego doctor to find out if laser hair removal is right for you.
