What is the technology of laser chin hair removal?

This technique is known as one of the cosmetic techniques for removing unwanted hair in the chin area for women or defining chin hair for men.

They work best on people with dark hair and light skin, but thanks to advances in these devices they are suitable for anyone.

How does laser chin hair removal work?

Laser chin hair removal works by sending light to the hair follicles that is absorbed by the melanin pigment.

The light then turns into heat, which damages the hair follicles and causes the hair to not grow back.

This technique may also help prevent hair from growing below the surface of the skin.

This process only takes about 5 to 10 minutes since this area is smaller than other parts of the body such as the chest or legs.

Instructions before laser chin hair removal

The dermatologist at the Skin Rejuvenation Center carefully examines the medical and treatment history, and determines if there are any risks that may incur you during the procedure to avoid them.

He may recommend some procedures in preparation for hair removal before the sessions begin, including:

  • Thoroughly clean the area to be treated.
  • An anesthetic gel may be applied to the treatment site.
  • Wear safety glasses to protect the eyes from the laser.
  • Stop taking certain medications such as blood thinners including warfarin, ibuprofen, aspirin or herbal remedies that may increase bleeding.
  • Avoid exposure to the sun in the days leading up to the treatment, because laser chin hair removal may be ineffective if the skin is inflamed.
  • You cannot use traditional hair removal methods such as plucking or threading before your session.
  • Avoid peeling or other chemical treatments in the week before your procedure, which may irritate the skin.
  • You may be asked to come to your appointment with skin free of beauty products and lightening creams.
  • Do not use tanning products for up to a month before sessions begin, as this may affect the results.
  • You can use blades to remove hair a day or two before the procedure so that the laser beams can penetrate the follicles sufficiently.

The results are permanent, but you will likely need to repeat the sessions once every 6 months and then only once a year.
