Lip Hair Removal

Lip hair removal is commonly sought out by women who have unwanted hair above their upper lips. Though the hair isn't present on the actual lips but rather on the skin directly above the upper lip and below the nose, it's commonly referred to as upper lip hair. Women most often seek the removal of this hair as it can lend to a more masculine appearance, even resembling a moustache.

Which Lip Hair Removal Method Works Best?

You can employ any of the traditional hair removal methods when removing upper lip hair. Waxing, depilatory creams and tweezing are all commonly used for this area; the results can be good albeit temporary. For dark upper lip hair, many women opt for bleaching creams to lighten the hair; however, the hair is still apparent, particularly in certain light.

Laser hair treatments work quite well to more permanently rid the upper lip region of hair. Since the lasers target hairs' melanin, laser treatments work best on people with dark upper lip hair. As the area is small, generally only two to six treatments are necessary, depending on how dense your individual hair is. While many people experience results quickly, more than one treatment is always required since about 80% of hair is in a dormant, non-active phase at any given time. Lasers only treat hair in its active phase of growth.
