Women’s Laser Hair Removal - Chin & Anterior Neck

Laser hair removal of the chin and front of the neck is a modern procedure aimed at reducing unwanted hair growth on the lower part of the face and the front surface of the neck. The procedure is performed using the Alexandrite DEKA Again Pro Plus laser (755 nm) and the Zimmer Cryo air cooling system, ensuring precise targeting of hair follicles and comfort during treatment.

This area is considered sensitive and hormone-dependent. Hair growth on the chin and neck may be influenced by individual characteristics and hormonal factors. The 755 nm Alexandrite laser effectively targets pigmented hair, providing gradual reduction and improving the appearance of the skin.

Indications

• unwanted hair on the chin and front of the neck;
• tendency to irritation after hair removal;
• ingrown hairs;
• hypertrichosis;
• hirsutism (after medical evaluation).

Procedure

• assessment of skin phototype and hair characteristics;
• individual selection of laser parameters;
• treatment of the chin and front neck area;
• skin cooling with the Zimmer Cryo system during the procedure;
• application of a soothing product after the procedure.

Intervals between sessions

• recommended interval - 4–6 weeks;
• as hair growth decreases, the interval may be extended to 6–8 weeks;
• intervals may be adjusted individually depending on hormonal factors;
• on average, 6–10 sessions are required;
• maintenance sessions are performed as needed.

Contraindications

• pregnancy (relative contraindication);
• active skin infections;

Aftercare

Normal reactions:
