Whereas body hair can be removed somehow, the facial hair is generally a bigger problem, causing serious psychological problems. Hair growth in the facial area is mostly due to hormonal reasons. The underlying cause must be investigated. It is important that hormonal therapy starts simultaneously with hair removal application.
Is the structure of the facial hair different from body hair?
Facial hair grows faster than the hair in other areas. Due to the hormonal sensitivity of the facial area and the fast hair cycle, laser type to be used should be carefully chosen. Appropriate device selection and effective dosages are essential for successful results. It should not be forgotten that if laser hair removal with appropriate wavelength and adequate dosages are not applied in the facial area, no results can be obtained, triggering may occur and it may be necessary to deal with more while trying to get rid of the hair. Alexandrite lasers can cause an increase instead of a decrease in the facial hair. Therefore, though the skin color is light, the face, neck and nape are the areas where Diode lasers are used the most.
