Laser hair removal for the face

Are you curious about permanent facial laser hair removal?
Every morning, you spot a few bothersome hairs in the mirror. Your hand instinctively reaches for the tweezers.

But what if you no longer had to worry about it? Significantly reducing your facial hair is absolutely possible. So why not you?

Why choose permanent facial hair removal?

The benefits of facial laser hair removal

Before making your decision, let us walk you through the many advantages that await.

Smooth skin

The most obvious one: smooth skin. From the very first session, you’ll notice the effects on your face: finer hair and, as a result, a smoother texture.

Une peau douce

Say goodbye to irritation

Redness from traditional hair removal methods is a thing of the past. No more ingrown hairs or those annoying little bumps caused by difficult regrowth.

Long-lasting results

With laser hair removal, the hair follicle is destroyed, leading to a significant reduction in hair growth.

Advanced technology

We use the Alexandrite laser, a cutting-edge technology suitable for both women and men. More and more men are enjoying a perfectly defined beard line.

Easier maintenance

Enjoy your daily life with peace of mind laser hair removal offers true everyday comfort.

A next-generation laser

Your well-being is at the heart of what we do. That’s why we’ve chosen the most advanced technology: the Candela Alexandrite laser, a global leader in aesthetic laser solutions.

This technology ensures optimal conditions for your facial hair removal sessions.

With a wavelength of 755 nm, the Alexandrite laser provides high precision and delivers optimal results.

To enhance the experience, we also use a cryotherapy device from the brand Zimmer. This technology cools the upper layer of the skin, reducing the sensation of heat produced by the laser and minimizing skin sensitivity during the treatment.

Which areas of the face can be treated with laser?

Targeted areas for women

Tired of unwanted facial hair? At Epilia, we offer Alexandrite laser treatments tailored to your needs.

During your first consultation, our experts will assess the feasibility of the treatment and provide a personalized protocol.

Since the face is a hormonally influenced area, laser treatment is mainly intended to offer long-lasting comfort.

The chin

As with the rest of the face, hair in this area can be unsightly. Our trained laser technicians will guide you through the entire process.

The upper lip

Few people are fond of those small hairs above the lip. Thanks to the laser, you’ll see visible results from the very first session. Hair grows back finer, lighter, and most importantly, less noticeable.

The jawline

The face is often a source of insecurity for many women. Our laser hair removal specialists treat this delicate area with care to give you a cleaner, more defined face by removing unwanted hair.

The neck

If you’ve tried waxing or tweezing this area before, laser hair removal will quickly become your new best friend.

With Alexandrite laser technology, the beam targets the hair’s melanin and gradually makes it finer with each session.

In addition, our assistants pay special attention to the sensitive skin of the neck, ensuring your safety in all Epilia centers.

The nose and nostrils

We can also treat the nose area and remove unwanted hairs around the edges of the nostrils using laser technology.

Le nez et les narines

Laser treatments for men

You take care of your appearance too—and that includes your face. That’s why Epilia centers offer laser hair removal specifically tailored to men.

Beard and mustache

Say goodbye to daily shaving—a common wish! Thanks to laser hair removal, you’ll save valuable time while enhancing your everyday comfort.

During your first consultation, your laser assistant will provide you with a personalized care protocol for your beard.

The nape of the neck

After frequent visits to the barber, neck hair tends to become darker and thicker. The Alexandrite laser is perfect for targeting it with precision.

nuque

Shirt collar area

Those stray hairs peeking out from your shirt or T-shirt are never welcome. Fortunately, laser hair removal can take care of them, allowing you to wear your clothes with confidence.

Ears, nose, and nostrils

Just like with the nose, some long, dark hairs may appear on the ears. Laser treatment is an effective solution to eliminate them.

How a facial laser hair removal session works

Free initial consultation

At all Epilia centers, our laser technicians welcome you for a free initial consultation. They will offer you the best advice.

Following this discussion, the assistant will examine the facial areas to be treated.

She will also inform you of the price for each zone. Of course, we offer package deals so you can benefit from better pricing.

Please note that your first laser hair removal session will not take place during this consultation, giving you time to reflect and make an informed decision.

Déroulement d’une séance d’épilation laser du visage

Before the session: preparation

Your first session is coming up.

Here’s an overview of our recommendations:

  • For women: do not shave before the session and stop all forms of hair removal two weeks prior.
  • For men: you’ll need to shave before each laser session.
  • Make sure your skin is free of any cosmetic products.

During the session: what to expect

You’ll be welcomed into a bright and comfortable room.

We will provide you with protective goggles for your eyes during the laser treatment.

You may feel slight tingling during the session. We use Zimmer technology to diffuse cold air with an anesthetic effect.

After the session: recommendations

Here are a few tips to help you get the best results:

  • Avoid sun exposure during the course of the treatment.
  • Stay away from pools, saunas, or steam rooms for 48 hours after a session.
  • Apply a moisturizing and soothing cream morning and evening for 3 days.
  • Do a gentle exfoliation a few days after your laser session.

Precautions to take before laser hair removal

Makeup and tattoosv

As you might expect, it is essential to completely remove your makeup before each of your laser hair removal sessions. Foundation and lipstick do not tolerate the light beam of our Alexandrite laser.

If you have permanent makeup, be sure to inform the laser technician during your first consultation. She will take care to avoid the tattooed areas to prevent any interaction between the pigments in your makeup and the laser.

Please note: we do not treat the upper lip if you have permanent makeup in that area. The same applies if you have permanent faux freckles (or beauty marks).

Tattoos are considered permanent makeup. As such, these areas are excluded from laser treatment.

Piercings

You can keep your piercings, provided that you remove them during the sessions to avoid any risk of burns in case of contact with the laser.

Contraindications

Only a few facial areas—such as the eyebrows, between the eyebrows, and the scalp—cannot be treated with laser.

If your skin is tanned, it is recommended to postpone your session.

Whether it’s for the chin, upper lip, or neck, laser hair removal is suitable for everyone—both men and women.
