The Advantages of Face Hair Removal

Face hair removal can be an almost every day occurrence with some women, and for those with excess facial hair the most comforting thing to know is that you are not alone. Often this unwanted facial hair growth is simply a natural side effect of aging, however, there are a plethora of lip, chin, cheek and other hair elimination options available. According to Bristol-Myers, approximately 20 million women in the United States remove facial hair on a weekly basis. Waxing, plucking, tweezing, and bleaching can be big components to many women’s daily schedule, however, these can often be tedious and time consuming. A simple and permanent solution is laser hair removal. Based on the latest reports by the ASAPS, skin care providers performed over 1.2 million laser treatments in 2007, making it third most popular overall cosmetic procedure on the market. Laser treatments offer is permanent hair removal, so there’s no need to worry about waxing again. For men, laser facial hair removal is a great alternative to daily shaving and can help them achieve that well-groomed appearance. Another added benefit is no more razor burn or ingrown hairs on the face.

When it comes to face hair removal, other popular options include waxing, depilatory creams, and electrolysis. The problem with waxing facial hair and using depilatories is that they can irritate hair follicles. Laser facial hair removal, on the other hand, causes minimal irritation to the face in comparison to waxing or electrolysis. Waxing can also cause painful ingrown facial hairs, which laser treatments are actually used to treat and eliminate. The National Center for Biotechnology Information finds facial lasers to effective for removing ingrown hairs from bearded areas. Shaving can cause a 5 o’ clock shadow, tweezing can irritate hair follicles and cause scarring, depilatory creams that dissolve hair at the root can be problematic when used on the face, irritating sensitive skin and not fully removing all the unwanted hairs. Electrolysis for face hair can potentially cause bumps, hyper-pigmentation/skin discoloration, and sometimes scarring, especially with darker skin tones.

The cost of facial hair removal may not seem like too high a price to pay, but waxing kits, professional waxing, and depilatories creams add up over time. When compared to the countless series of waxing and electrolysis sessions needed, laser hair reduction could be the best option available. The actual laser facial hair costs are reasonable and require only a small commitment. The monthly maintenance costs of facial waxing and the time need for electrolysis essentially make the relatively small price of laser facial treatments the obvious choice. A full-face hair laser treatment can be preformed in just 15 minutes, compared to the accumulated hours that are necessary for an electrolysis treatment. Facial laser hair removal sessions are repeated about twice a month for typically 4-6 sessions. This kind of removal of face hair offers men and women a quick and easy option. It’s a facial price that’s both easy on a budget and on a schedule.

The cost of laser hair removal can vary greatly. Usually the cost is assessed according to the size of the area that is being treated. If you take up laser hair removal treatment in Washington DC then you can be charged almost $300 to $500 for every treatment session. Generally the permanent laser hair removal treatment requires 4 treatment sessions.



If you are considering a laser hair removal treatment for a larger area like your back or arms of legs then you can be charged more for this. Treating small areas like eyebrows, upper lip, forehead would cost you a lesser amount.



It is advised that before you make an appointment with the laser hair removal specialist you should confirm the price and other details so that you would know that you can afford taking the treatment.
