All lot of women use waxing treatment, this is done by applying hot or cold wax to the hairy spots and then using a tiny cloth pad the hair is pulled out in a jerk. This hurts a bit, and also the hair grows back. You have to get this done every four weeks or so, and is also expensive. Hair-removing chemicals, commonly known as depilatories, are available in various forms like cream, lotion, spray and gel. But these chemicals may cause irritation and it's better to keep away from them.

Here we are some effective treatments that help you in eliminating unwanted facial hair with minimal side effects.


Vaniqua:

This is a prescription skin cream that can reduce the rate of hair growth. But it can be applied only around your mouth and chin. Like depilatories, it can irritate your skin. This hair-removal method can cause ingrown hairs that can be unsightly, and harmless.

Electrolysis:

It is a more expensive and often extensive treatment. In this method, a tiny metal probe will be put into each hair follicle. Then the hair base will be destroyed by delivering an electric current. This treatment has to be repeated many times. But the hair loss will be permanent. It can be painful and may also cause scarring. There are also electronic tweezers available in the market. But they can not be effective and cannot permanently remove hair.

Lazer Treatment:

It is also an expensive and often extensive treatment. It is a surgical technique. This should be done by a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. You can get this treatment done in a salon with the help of a supervising physician. This process generally requires multiple treatments and hair loss also may not be permanent. You can expect only hair reduction and not complete hair elimination. You may have to make return visits to the salon. So plan your budget well before going for laser treatment. It works best for light-skinned and dark hair. But it is not effective for removing blond or gray hair.

Things to Keep in Mind:

Some women get unwanted facial hair on the face, usually on the upper lip and chin, for many reasons like hormonal changes during menopause, genetics and side effects of some medications. Simple and non-surgical methods like tweezing, waxing and depilatories are the simple and best choices. If you can not notice enough difference, consult a dermatologist or a qualified physician for getting electrolysis or laser treatment.
