Illinois Lip Hair Removal

Because lip hair appears on such a prominent part of the body, the thought of side effects involved in its removal can give one pause. Waxing and plucking can lead to unsightly blemishes, while laser hair removal services entail high technology operating near the eyes and mouth. If applied carefully and professionally, however, this need not be a concern.

Laser hair removal services employ careful safety precautions, especially on the face and lip. The subject wears goggles to protect the eyes from the laser light, while cooling gel is often applied to the lip to prevent irritation. Because of the small surface area of the lip, the procedure takes far less time than the legs or back--typically about 10 to 20 minutes--which reduces the discomfort of the procedure and allows the technician to move with care. Most hair removal requires several sessions to cover the cyclical growth of the hair, but produces noticeable thinning that normally lasts for years or decades. Dark hair responds best to laser surgery--especially on light or pale skin--though lighter red, blond or gray hair is also treatable with the technique.

Lip Hair Removal in Schaumburg, Illinois Can Be Found at NuU Medspa

Lip hair tends to become more prominent over time, as softer hair coarsens on a woman's body and its visibility increases. Removal services thus may need to become more frequent and/or utilize more long-term results such as laser surgery. The technicians at NuU Medspa in Schaumburg, Illinois and elsewhere in the Chicago area can provide detailed information on both laser hair removal and more temporary techniques.
