Laser Treatment to Remove Unwanted Facial Hair - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Hair growth is a major problem for many people and though growth of hair with time is normal, it's the places where it grows on the face and body that can become a big problem. We have hair follicles everywhere on the body except for on the lips, palms of the hands and soles of the feet, so it’s no surprise that many of us are spending far too much time shaving, waxing or plucking unwanted hair.

Hair on the face is a common problem that affects a lot of people, and there's a few things that cause this to happen. It could be hereditary or maybe because of your ethnic heritage, there are those who have excessive facial hair because of medical conditions or it could even be due to hormonal changes associated with the menopause.


Hair can appear on different areas of the face including:

* Upper lip
* Chin
* Jaw line
* Sideburns
* Eyebrows
* Cheeks

Facial hair that's excessive or unsightly is a cause for concern for lots of women as it needs regular maintenance to keep it under control. Excess hair anywhere can lead to low self-esteem, and although it's common to have unwanted hair on the face it can cause embarrassment to women and really affect their self-confidence. Removing the hair is the best solution, although you may find that waxing, threading and plucking hair can become irritating and painful, often leaving the skin sore and red. This can cause stress and embarrassment, and it can need regular maintenance to keep it under control.

Remedies and treatments include:
  • Shaving, waxing, threading and plucking techniques which are time-consuming and temporary.
  • Electrolysis permanently removes hair by using heat, but it's an extremely slow and painful method and can leave scarring.
  • Medicated creams can also be used, although side-effects such as skin rashes and irritation may occur when using this method.
  • Laser hair removal can treat small and large areas quickly and effectively, compared to other methods.

Removing facial hair with laser treatment is a quick procedure that gives great results. The pigment in the hair follicle absorbs the laser energy and then this energy converts to heat, causing thermal damage to the follicle without causing any harm to the surrounding skin, and this stops the hair growing in the damaged follicle. With laser treatment, there's only minimal discomfort, usually just a minor stinging sensation to the skin upon application of the laser pulses, but topical anaesthetic cream can make any treatment more comfortable.
