Facial Hair is a problem that many women suffer from around the United States. In fact one out of every four women has some type of facial hair problem. The facial hair is caused from a variety of reasons including prescription drugs, heredity, overactive hormones or metabolic imbalances. While it is in your best interest to figure out what can be causing the facial hair, there is no guarantee that the problem is something that can be cured. However regardless of the reason, women do not have to suffer with facial hair because there is an excellent option available to remove the facial hair.

The answer for millions of women across the United States is Laser Hair Removal. The process is easy to do. You will meet with a certified technician and discuss your facial hair problem. The technician will go over all available laser options and lay out a treatment plan for you. The plan will include the number of visits you will need to complete your process. Most people will need about five visits each lasting a few minutes to fifteen minutes depending on what area is being done. A chin for example will take about two to three minutes. An upper lip will take less than a minute and eyebrows will take about fifteen minutes.

The procedure is relatively painless and has no serious side effects. There is one great side effect and that is the increased production of collagen in the treatment area. Collagen will make you look younger and tighter firmer skin. You actually kill two birds with one stone with a laser procedure on your facial hair.

The only other procedure that has been approved for permanent hair loss by the FDA is electrolysis. This procedure has all of the negative aspects that lasers don’t. It is painful to have done. It can leave burns, blisters or welts in the area that will take days to heal. Electrolysis also takes an exorbitant amount of time when compared to Laser Hair Removal. An upper lip for electrolysis will take four to ten hours, a chin will take two to twelve hours and eyebrows can take ten to fifteen hours. Laser Hair Removal only takes minutes, not hours. Many electrolysis procedures can take as long as two years to finish.

It virtually painless especially compared to electrolysis. It costs a lot less money that electrolysis too. Come on into a local Laser Spa and the staff will show you how it will all work for you.
