Embarrassing female facial hair is more of a common problem amongst women of all ages and all colors, even as young as 10 years old. Amongst teens, it may cause some major self-esteem issues. At Bay Harbour Med Spa ™ we offer laser hair removal treatments for women of all skin colors (including safe treatments for dark to black skin) that are quick, highly effective and will help restore any confidence you may have lost due to your unsightly facial hair.

We provide you with safe, effective, state-of-the art laser hair removal technology which actually yields permanent hair reduction. [Please note: we do not use an IPL technology, this type of device does not deliver permanent results, nor is it appropriate for ethnic skin!].

Here are some frequently asked questions and answers relating to women’s facial laser hair removal:

How long does female laser hair removal take?

Facial hair removal for women is quick and does not require any down time. You can literally come in during your lunch break and go back to work. The only requirement is that you do not go out to the sun after treatment, what we mean by that is that you don’t go sun bathing after the laser treatment. Areas such as the upper lip, chin, cheeks and side burns take about 5 minutes, respectively. Full facial laser hair removal takes approximately 10 minutes. Same applies for the neck. [ Please note: more women than not, have chin hair than you might think].

How many female facial hair remvoal treatments will I need?

You will need approximately 12 treatments spaced out over 4 to 6 weeks. It is a common misconception and unethical practice in the laser hair removal industry to sell potential clients the common fallacy that they would only require 4 to 6 treatments. If you’re told this, ask for their guarantee policies, if the laser establishment requires touch up fees, run to the nearest exit! You will not need to wait for regrowth of hair to come in for laser treatments.

Does Bay Harbour Med Spa ™  give a guarantee on laser treatments?

Yes, absolutely! However, the policy on a life-time guarantee is this: we will provide you with as many additional touch ups if necessary (usually there’s no necessity, but some women experience hormonal issues which may cause some fine hair regrowth), as long as you’ve had the required 12 treatments, and came in for each treatment at a pre-determined schedule of either 4 t0 6 week intervals.

How does facial laser hair removal for women work?

We utilize the CoolGlide ™ technology, the only laser technology approved by the FDA to treat women of all skin colors (including African-Americans). The tip of the hand-piece is cool, as we glide the hand-piece over the treated area, it immediately cools the affected area, minimizing most pain associated with laser treatments. The final result after multiple treatments is that the follicles will be weakened by the laser beam, rendering them unable to support the hair.

Is there pre and  post-treatment care I need to follow?

Yes! It’s important that you NOT pluck, tweeze, use depilatories or wax any regrowth following your laser treatments. You may continue to shave the areas of treatment, but, never, ever use the other methods mentioned, because the follicles must be destroyed at their roots, if you use the above methods you, the laser beam won’t have a root to weaken the hair follicle. If you have any more questions about the process, we’ll be happy to cover this information during your initial free consultation. When coming in for your initial treatment, all you need to do is shave the area you’re having treated. We do not have to see hair presence.

I have blonde hair, am I a candidate for laser hair removal?

Unfortunately, no you’re not. Do not fall for the gimmick that laser works for all hair colors. In order for any laser technology to work, there has to be pigment (color) to the hair. There is no laser technology out there that will permanently reduce your unwanted hair if you have light, white or blonde hair.

I’d like to come in for a consultation, is there a fee?

Absolutely not! Please call to schedule a FREE consultation. We are not a walk-in establishment, but we will try to accommodate you for the soonest consultation appointment that there is.
