Many women aspire toward a feminine ideal, and nothing mars this ideal more than hair on the upper lip; many actively seek out upper lip hair removal. Shaving, while popular for men seeking the same result, is not an option women should consider. Shaving causes hair to grow back very quickly and can leave women with unflattering stubble.

Upper lip hair removal that can provide longer-term results may be achieved with the use of depilatory creams. These creams work by dissolving the hair with powerful chemicals. They are typically applied to the upper lip and left on for five to 15 minutes. Going this route comes with a couple of drawbacks. First of all, the smell of these creams can be quite potent and overwhelming. Secondly, some women report that with consistent use, depilatory creams can cause the skin that is being treated to darken.

Upper Lip Hair Removal: Women's Laser Treatments

Upper lip hair removal using laser treatments have offered salvation for many women seeking to get rid of hair on the upper lip. It must be noted that laser treatment can be quite expensive, often running into the hundreds of dollars. Still, this approach offers results that are among the most impressive of any hair-removal method.

In this method, the heat of a laser is used to destroy the hair follicle. Results are more permanent than those offered by most other approaches. One study showed that hair density was reduced by 80 percent for up to a year following treatment. Upper lip hair removal is available at NuU Medspa which offers affordable options for women interested in pursuing laser therapy for hair removal.
