Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal can help with unwanted hair.

Facial hair. It can make you feel less feminine and wreak havoc on your self-esteem. You may think you’re alone in your fight against unwanted facial hair, but recent research indicates that approximately 22% of American women spend time and money trying to remove dark hair from their face. The path to finding the best corrective treatment for you depends on what’s causing the hair growth.

Genetics

Your father might have given you your laughing blue eyes and your mother your charmingly bright smile, but they may also have given you your problem with dark, unwanted hair. If your mother, grandmother, or even your grandfather has excess facial hair, there is a chance you will as well.

Because your genes aren’t something you can change, the best solution to remove unwanted facial hair may be one of our laser hair removal treatments.

Aging (Hormonal Changes)

In many cases, aging can create facial hair problems in women who before had none. As women age, their estrogen levels decrease, which gives the male androgen hormones more control over the body. The same hormones that give men their thick beards cause dark hair growth for women on the upper lip and chin areas.

Laser hair removal is also an effective means for combating that dark hair that can sometimes come with age.

Androgen Disorders

Androgen disorders are caused by an imbalance of male and female hormones in a woman’s body. Much like aging, an increase in the male androgen hormones can mean an increase in unwanted facial hair. If you suffer from an androgen disorder, laser hair removal may not be the best option to combat unwanted facial hair. It is important to speak with a specialist about treatment options.
