Laser Hair Removal on my Face?!?
July 13, 2008 - 17:19
I want to get laser hair removal on my face. Does it work for facial hair and is it safe?
I have had problems for years with fuzz on my face - on my chin and upper lip and a bit on my cheeks.
Has anyone had this done? Is it safe? Does it really work???


Hi tequila,
You have come to the right place to have all your questions on laser hair removal answered.
First of all, yes absolutely laser hair removal will work on facial hair, it is safe, and can have excellent permanent results.
How effective it will be depends on a number of things, perhaps most importantly the DIFFERENCE between the color of your skin and the color of your hair. If you have fair skin and the fuzz on your face is dark, then you can have excellent results with laser hair removal. The best thing to do is to get a consultation at a laser clinic and they can recommend the most appropriate course of action.
You will probably need to have a number of treatments but you will find that there is an improvement from the very first session. Regarding the hair on your chin specifically, this can be affected by hormones so be aware that it might take a few more sessions, but ultimately you will find that the treatment will work.
Good luck!
