Facial hair is a fact of life for most of us, but there are options for getting rid of your facial hair for good. Laser hair removal provides a permanent solution for facial hair. Our laser facial hair removal is based on the power of the Cynosure® Palomar Icon™ MaxR. This hand-held laser is specially designed to quickly combat hair using a pulse laser, helping to provide longer-lasting results compared to alternatives. Thanks to its handheld configuration, the MaxR can provide precise, effective results for both large and small areas.
The Cynosure® MaxR is a powerful tool against hair growth on the face and body. Here at Uptown Medical Wellness & Anti-Aging Center, we love this service thanks to its many awesome benefits:
Laser hair removal can be a bit uncomfortable, but treatment for facial hair should only last for a few minutes, max. You will need to undergo two to six sessions to achieve maximum results. After your treatment, you should avoid tanning and sun exposure, hot baths or showers, harsh products, and body scrubs and exfoliators. You should wait at least six hours before showering after your session. Side effects of treatment include redness, blistering, swelling, and acne, but you shouldn’t experience any pain due to treatment. Laser facial hair removal can help you achieve smooth, hairless skin that lasts.
If you're looking for a way to get rid of your facial hair for good, laser hair removal might be the solution you’ve been searching for. However, this treatment might not be right for everyone. Laser hair removal might not be a good idea for you if you are pregnant or if you have skin cancer, genital herpes, or keloid scars. It might also not be right for you if you are taking certain acne medications. You can learn more about whether or not laser facial hair removal is the right choice for you by consulting with a McAllen med spa clinician at Uptown.
