I am considering laser hair removal because of the fine hairs on my upper lip.
I am considering getting hair removal because there are more fine hairs on my upper lip than I expected. They grow back quickly after I trim them with a razor, and shaving frequently sometimes causes my skin to sting or turn red. I am writing to inquire because I think it would be better to get laser hair removal at a dermatology clinic rather than managing it myself. Since the skin on the upper lip is thin and sensitive, I am wondering if it is safe to receive laser hair removal there. I would also like to know how many sessions are required to see a noticeable reduction in hair, as well as how painful the procedure is. I am also concerned about whether side effects such as redness or stinging are common after hair removal. If there are any people who have received laser hair removal on the upper lip or clinic staff, I would appreciate it if you could explain how the procedure is typically performed.

- 01CommentsIf this is your first laser treatment, I imagine you are concerned not only about the pain but also about your schedule afterward. It would be helpful to mention during the consultation that you have a low pain tolerance and to confirm if the procedure can be paused temporarily if you experience discomfort. Before an important appointment, I would also like to be informed of the guidelines for contacting them if redness persists, in addition to the average recovery period.180026.10.22
- 02CommentsI imagine you are concerned about the downtime before returning to work. Please make sure to check during your consultation how much redness or irritation will occur immediately after the procedure, and whether makeup can be applied on the same day. Scheduling a time slot that fits your schedule will put your mind at ease.170026.10.21
- 03CommentsThanks to your detailed questions, it seems you are well-prepared for the consultation. If you have sensitive skin, it is a good idea to ask in advance about the level of pain or redness before the procedure. If you have work on weekdays, please also check the downtime schedule and sun protection at home.191026.10.21

- 02CommentsFor your first visit, it would be easier to schedule if you check the consultation, preparation, and soothing care separately, in addition to the procedure time. When making the reservation, it would be helpful to ask if it is possible to have just the consultation first, and also when to reapply sunscreen after returning home.260026.10.19
- 03CommentsI imagine you must be quite self-conscious if the condition cannot be covered well even with makeup. I haven't received the treatment myself yet, so I cannot provide a review, but I would like to confirm what timeframe is used to confirm that the claim of improvement without recurrence is based. It would also be helpful to ask the clinic if the care methods or recovery periods differ when consulting about both the eye area and the cheeks together.230026.10.18
