Unwanted chin hair is something a lot of men and women both despise. It’s equivalent to endless shaving, nicks and burns, and a lot of wasted time on a busy workday morning. But instead of staying frustrated over this repetitive cycle, you can switch to laser hair removal for chin to enjoy long-term results.

In this post, we’ll discuss how laser chin hair removal works, what you can expect in a session, and the benefits you’ll enjoy. Read on to see why many of our clients are getting this treatment!

How our chin laser hair removal works
For our laser hair removal on chin, we use the FDA-approved Candela GentleMax Pro laser technology. This laser equipment is designed with adjustable laser settings, allowing us to target unwanted hair even on the most sensitive areas of your face.

To be specific, the laser beams of this equipment targets the hair follicles. The laser is absorbed by your hair’s melanin, which is then converted to heat, and damages the follicles. When the follicle is neutralized, it will no longer produce more hair!

Also, this chin hair laser will let you enjoy up to 90% permanent hair removal. This means you no longer have to shave, wax, or epilate after a few days. And even if some of your chin hair grows back, you can easily get touch-up sessions from us to eliminate the wispy strands.

Still, you should understand that you need multiple sessions to achieve the best results from our laser treatment for chin hair. On average, our clients will go for at least 6 appointments to enjoy smooth and hair-free chin.

However, if you have thicker and denser facial hair, you may need more than 6 sessions to get the same results as those with thinner hair. This is especially true for our male clients since men are naturally more hairy than the ladies.

If you want to know how many chin laser hair removal appointments you’ll need, you can request a consultation with our specialist. Our licensed laser technician will assess your skin and hair type to create a personalized treatment plan.

What to expect from our laser treatment for chin hair removal
Our laser hair removal treatments are non-invasive and can be scheduled during your lunch break. Overall, chin treatments are fairly quick since it’s only a small area. Here’s what you’ll expect when you book this treatment with us:

Before the treatment
Before your laser hair removal for facial hair, we’ll conduct a consultation to assess the treatment area. Also, we’ll have to check if you’re taking certain medications or if you have an active infection near or around the chin.

Depending on the specific condition of your skin, you may need to do some prep work for about 1 to 2 weeks. But many of our clients can undergo the treatment on the same day once they are cleared during consultation.

Overall, make sure you limit sun exposure before the appointment and skip strong skin products like retinoids.

During the treatment
During the actual procedure, we’ll ask you to wear a pair of protective goggles. After that, you’ll lie down on our clinic bed throughout the duration of the treatment.

We’ll start applying the laser for chin hair where you’ll feel a snapping sensation. Most of our clients find this tolerable, but if you have a lower pain threshold, we can always use a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable.

After the treatment
Right after the treatment, your chin may feel slightly swollen, tender, and reddish. These are normal reactions to the laser procedure, and it will resolve on its own in a day or two.

But while waiting for your skin to heal fully, avoid touching or scrubbing it. Also, don’t try to pick on the hairs because it will just irritate the treated area.

Instead, you can apply an ice pack to ease your discomfort. You should also avoid applying makeup or using any heavy product on your chin for the next 24 to 48 hours. Lastly, try to avoid sun exposure and anything that will make your chin sweat.

Other than that, you can resume your usual activities after a session of facial hair laser removal. If you have concerns, you can always call us, and our laser specialist will guide you.

Also, we’ll advise you about the schedule of your next laser appointment. We usually space them out between 4 to 6 weeks to allow your skin to recover first and for the remaining hair strands to enter their active growth phase.

Benefits of laser hair removal for chin
Permanent hair removal for the chin is one of our most popular treatments. Here are some reasons why our clients love it so much:

1. It’s effective for both men and women.
   Whether you need laser hair removal for mustache, beard, goatee, or other facial hair, our laser treatment is effective for both the ladies and the gents. It’s suitable for almost all skin and hair types, especially for individuals with a huge color contrast between the two.

2. It helps reduce hair growth for women with PCOS.
   Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome or PCOS often experience hirsutism or excess hair growth. They tend to develop male-like hair patterns like thicker hair on the facial area, back, arms, legs, and chest.

And if PCOS isn’t enough of a struggle, a lot of women also deal with low self-esteem and negative body image brought by this abnormal hair growth. In turn, they have to double their efforts in shaving and grooming, which adds to the frustration.

If you’re also facing this dilemma, you can try our laser hair removal for the face to reduce hair growth. While it won’t treat the hormonal aspect of your PCOS-related hirsutism, you’ll see incredible results after a few sessions.

1. It saves time and money from traditional hair removal.
   On average, shaving chin hair can add up another 15 to 30 minutes on your usual routine. But with our permanent chin hair removal, you can finally say goodbye to repetitive shaving, nasty razor burns, and the cost of buying all the needed grooming products.

2. It eliminates painful, ingrown hair.
   Ingrown hair occurs when a new hair grows from the follicle then bends or curves into the skin. Instead of sprouting out of the skin like usual, ingrown hair gets trapped underneath. This will cause swollen and painful bumps that need to be removed professionally.

Shaving can trigger these ingrown hairs to grow on your chin area. It gets worse if you have naturally curly hair or easily irritated skin. So, instead of dealing with this discomfort, you can opt for laser treatment for facial hair. This way, we can neutralize the follicles even before they grow another ingrown hair.

1. It’s an effective confidence booster! Above all, our laser facial hair removal can improve your confidence. Since you no longer have to worry about having chin hair, you can easily apply makeup or flaunt your smooth skin.

Many of our clients, especially the ladies, said that they had become less self-conscious after completing chin hair laser removal.
