Laser Hair Removal is safe for all area's from the upper lip to the genital area. The gold standard technology for hair removal allows for hair removal in 4-6 laser treatments. There is now pain free laser hair systems on the market as well.

Laser hair removal is great for sensitive areas including the upper lip. If too painful, numbing cream can easily be used to make it more comfortable. Laser hair removal CANNOT be used for eyebrow shaping because it is not an exact enough tool for an area with as little hair
as the eyebrow.
