1. The face: a very popular area for laser hair removal
The face is among the first areas for which laser hair removal is requested.
The American Academy of Dermatology and the Mayo Clinic also cite the upper lip and chin as among the most common areas treated with lasers.
At SSSKIN, laser hair removal for the face is offered in small targeted areas or for the entire face , with a dedicated price list.
The goal is not just to remove visible hairs.
It often involves redefining a sharper facial contour, eliminating bothersome downy hair, or treating hormonal hair (chin, lower face) in a lasting way.
2. The classic small areas: lip, chin, between the eyebrows
On the SSSKIN price list, several small areas of the face are offered individually: chin, upper lip, between the eyebrows, temples, ears, sideburns, nose and nostrils, eyebrows .
The upper lip is one of the most frequent requests.
Major medical references (Mayo Clinic, AAD) consistently cite it as a typical laser area.
Laser treatment allows for the long-term reduction of downy or dark hairs, with a result that is much more stable than repeated waxing or bleaching.
The chin is also a key area, particularly for women subject to hormonal fluctuations.
The hairs may be thicker, coarser, sometimes isolated, sometimes in a “small beard”.
The laser helps break this razor/ingrown hair cycle by directly targeting the hair bulb.
The area between the eyebrows corresponds to the "bar" in the middle of the forehead.
This is an area that is very often plucked or waxed.
With laser, the work is cleaner and sharper, with a better defined eyebrow line.
For these small areas, SSSKIN offers identical rates per session, with discounted prices in packs of 5 sessions or in Premium Packages.
3. Cheeks, sideburns, lower face: smooth the contour
When we talk about face and lasers, it's not just about lips and chin.
At SSSKIN, you can also find areas such as the cheeks , sideburns , beard and lower face .
The cheeks are often involved:
-
the bothersome downy hair in some women (especially visible in daylight),
-
Thicker hair in some cases due to hormones.
The laser then makes it possible to unify the texture and color of the skin, while respecting a natural line.
Sideburns and beard/lower face are areas in high demand for men.
The goal is not always to remove everything, but sometimes to:
-
raise or refine the beard line;
-
limit the hair that grows up on the cheeks;
-
reduce the hairs that “go down” too far on the neck.
In its article on the cost of laser hair removal, SSSKIN specifically mentions the cheeks, beard and lower face as specific areas with separate pricing from the rest of the body.
4. Eyebrows, temples, ears, nose: the very specific areas
On the Our Prices page, SSSKIN also includes very targeted areas: eyebrows, temples, ears, nose and nostrils .
These are areas where precision work is primarily sought:
-
a few hairs that protrude from the eyebrow line,
-
visible downy hair on the temples
-
hairs that come out of the ears or nostrils.
However, major organizations like the Mayo Clinic remind us of an important point: the laser should not be used on the eyelid or just around the eye , because there is a risk to the retina and ocular structures.
In practical terms, this means that:
-
You can clean the area between the eyebrows and a few hairs above the eyebrow line;
-
Avoid areas directly on the eyelid or too close to the eyeball;
-
Eye protection is essential during any laser shooting to the face.
At SSSKIN, this work is done with a medical questionnaire , eye protection and settings adapted to the fineness of the hair in these areas.
5. Full face: for whom and why?
Beyond small areas, some people choose a full face treatment .
On pricing pages and in blog articles, SSSKIN talks about facial laser hair removal as a hormone-dependent area, which often requires more than 6 sessions for a stable result.
The entire face can be interesting:
-
In cases of very noticeable downy hair, which poses an aesthetic or makeup problem,
-
For men who want a completely clean contour (cheeks, lower face, neck) with less regrowth,
-
for people who have already treated their body and want to harmonize their face.
The protocol will then be custom-built during the laser hair removal consultation , by precisely choosing the areas to be included and the desired level of reduction (reduction or near disappearance).
6. Not all areas of the face are treated in the same way.
Although, in theory, almost all areas of the face with hair can be targeted with laser treatment, major medical references remind us that there are exceptions :
-
the eyelid / immediate eye contour should not be treated with laser for safety reasons;
-
Tattooed areas are not treated;
-
Very light, red or white hairs respond less well, which may suggest electrolysis for a few isolated hairs.
On the face, the response to laser treatment also varies greatly:
-
of the hair type (thick vs. downy),
-
of the phototype (fair, matte, dark skin),
-
of the hormonal context .
This is why SSSKIN insists, in its articles, on the importance of a consultation to estimate the number of sessions, the interval between appointments and the overall strategy (partial or complete face).
7. How many sessions are needed for the facial areas?
The face reacts a little differently from other areas.
In its article dedicated to laser hair removal of the face , SSSKIN specifies that more than 6 sessions are often needed, because it is a hormone-dependent area.
The number of sessions varies depending on:
-
the area (lip, chin, cheeks, lower face…);
-
the density and color of the hair;
-
the presence or absence of hormonal disorders.
After a complete protocol, one or two touch-up sessions per year may be offered to maintain the result, which is consistent with what international dermatological centers also report.
8. FAQ – Facial areas and laser hair removal
What areas of the face are treated at SSSKIN?
On the Our Prices page, SSSKIN lists: eyebrows, chin, upper lip, between eyebrows, temples, ears, sideburns, nose and nostrils, cheeks, beard and lower face.
Can the entire face really be treated with lasers?
Many areas can be treated, but not the eyelid or the immediate eye contour, as the Mayo Clinic and the American Academy of Dermatology remind us. At SSSKIN, a "full face" treatment plan is always developed during a consultation, respecting these safety limits.
Can fine facial hair be treated?
Laser hair removal works best on dark, thick hair. Results on very light downy hair can be more variable. In some cases, other techniques (such as electrolysis) can be used to treat a few stubborn hairs.
Where do I start if several areas are bothering me?
The easiest way is to book a consultation via the SSSKIN laser hair removal page.
The team will analyze your hair area by area (lip, chin, cheeks, lower face…) and will offer you a prioritized treatment plan , with a clear quote and an estimated number of sessions.
