Upper Lip Laser Hair Removal

As we get older, it is very common for unwanted hair to grow on certain areas of the body. In many cases the hair was always there, but as the years go by it can start to grow in thicker and appear more prominent than before. A common problem area for women is the upper lip. For many women unwanted lip hair is caused by a hormonal imbalance that they are unaware of. If you have unruly lip hair and are sure that it is not being triggered by a hormonal defect, you should feel free to remove the hair with treatments like laser hair removal. Upper lip laser hair removal can be very effective for those individuals with more than just a few stray hairs on their lip area, and if you don’t want to be bothered by your upper lip hair any longer you should contact a plastic surgeon in an area near you to discuss your options.

What to Expect

Before you can receive upper lip laser hair removal, you will need to attend a consult with the plastic surgeon of your choice. At the consult the two of you will discuss many factors of the hair removal procedure such as cost, expected results, and the specific details of the procedure. During the consult it would also be a good time to ask questions or raise any concerns you may have.

You should also be sure to stop receiving any other hair removal treatments (like tweezing or waxing) that you may have been receiving prior to the laser hair removal because the procedure works best when there is visible hair for the laser to penetrate. The day of your upper lip laser hair removal, anesthesia will be administered and your surgeon will begin. The lasers used during the procedure are safe and if used properly you will not receive any skin damage to the area surrounding your lip hair.
