Excess Hair
Shaving, waxing, plucking, stripping, threading — these are just a few of the ways we attempt to manage unwanted and excess hair on our bodies.
Not only do they require time, but the tools themselves are often expensive, especially if you are having them performed professionally.
For those of us who are tired of dealing with hair or having to open our wallets every few weeks for temporary management, excess hair treatment that is reliable and affordable is available.
Why Is Excess Hair an Issue?
Our genetics determines our hair patterns, and, unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about our genetic makeup. If you are someone who was born with excessive amounts of unwanted hair, then you know that maintaining and removing it can require hours of time and a fair amount of financial investment. Beauty standards are very specific about what kind of hair is considered attractive or not, and these standards shift depending on where you live and what culture you come from.
But even if you don’t care about following modern beauty standards, you can still find yourself wishing that you had less hair to contend with. Aesthetic medicine is all about helping you achieve the appearance you prefer — regardless of how that fits into modern standards. So if you find yourself wishing that some regions of your body were free from their current amount of hair, then treating it could do wonders for your confidence.
How to Treat Excess Hair
When it comes to permanent hair removal, there is really only one option and gold standard on the market, laser hair removal. Laser hair removal uses the power of concentrated light to blast and weaken the hair follicles in your skin.
Over time and multiple treatments, the follicles are damaged enough to prevent hair from growing back entirely or, at the very least, make it significantly less noticeable on the body. Laser hair removal is long-lasting, but it may require some touch-ups after years have passed and the follicles have had time to repair themselves.
