Sometimes the front of the neck joins in, as a natural continuation of the jawline.<\/p>\n<p>Each one is very small, so the practical question is not &#8220;what does an upper lip cost&#8221; but <strong>what else fits into the same visit<\/strong>. The &#8362;250 minimum covers a quarter of an hour, and an upper lip on its own does not use it. Get an estimate for your combination in the <a href=\"\/en\/laser-calculator\/\">calculator<\/a>, and the full table on the <a href=\"\/en\/laser-hair-removal-prices\/\">price list<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s2\">Why the face comes back sooner<\/h2>\n<p>Facial hair grows faster than in most body areas, so the gap between treatments tends to be shorter. The structure of the series stays the same &mdash; <a href=\"\/en\/how-laser-hair-removal-works\/\">three stages and about 12 treatments<\/a> &mdash; but the pace is set by what is actually seen. More on the gaps, and on what happens if you are late, in the <a href=\"\/en\/how-often-laser-hair-removal-treatments\/\">interval guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s3\">Hormones &mdash; the part worth saying up front<\/h2>\n<p>Hair on the chin, cheeks and jawline is affected by hormones more than any other area. Conditions such as PCOS, a change in contraception, giving birth or menopause can bring growth back even after a successful series.<\/p>\n<p><strong>That is not a failure of the treatment &mdash; it is the body that changed.<\/strong> In those cases you return to short maintenance rather than a full series from the beginning. We say that before we start, not after.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s4\">White and light hair &mdash; the real limitation<\/h2>\n<p>The laser targets the melanin in the root. <strong>A white hair has no melanin &mdash; so it does not respond.<\/strong> On the chin and cheeks that matters especially, because white hairs appear there earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Light or vellus hair responds partially. The 940&nbsp;nm wavelength is intended precisely for finer hair, but it does not work miracles. <strong>This is checked with a dermatoscope at the assessment, before anyone sells you a series.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s5\">For men: shaping or removing<\/h2>\n<p>Most men who come for the facial area do not want to remove a beard &mdash; they want a <strong>clean line<\/strong>: a neck that does not itch, a defined cheek line, or to stop the beard at a fixed place. That is possible &mdash; the boundary is marked exactly at the assessment, and only below it is treated.<\/p>\n<p>Worth knowing: what is removed does not come back to how it was. So on a beard we go slowly, and confirm the line again at every session.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s6\">What is different about facial skin<\/h2>\n<p>The skin is thinner, exposed to the sun every day, and has things applied to it that are not applied elsewhere. So on the face we work with a <strong>small dedicated head<\/strong> that allows precise work around the lip and nose, and with continuous cooling.<\/p>\n<p>On the face we are also extra careful with intensity and build up gradually. One more treatment is better than an unnecessary risk in the most visible place there is.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s7\">Before a facial treatment &mdash; three things that differ from the body<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Active products.<\/strong> Retin-A is stopped two weeks before, and anyone taking or having taken Roaccutane in the last six months reports it at the assessment. These appear on the health declaration filled in here.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cold sores.<\/strong> Anyone with recurring herpes around the mouth needs to say so before an upper-lip treatment. It does not rule you out automatically &mdash; it changes how we proceed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Make-up and creams.<\/strong> On the day of the treatment you arrive with a completely clean face &mdash; no make-up, no cream and no sunscreen. All the detail is in the <a href=\"\/en\/aftercare-guide\/\">before &amp; after guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s8\">Questions that keep coming up<\/h2>\n<h3>How much does upper-lip hair removal cost?<\/h3>\n<p>An upper lip on its own takes under five minutes. Because the minimum order is &#8362;250 for 15 minutes, it is worth adding a chin or a jawline to the same visit &mdash; it fits in the same window and at the same price.<\/p>\n<h3>Does it hurt more on the face?<\/h3>\n<p>The skin is more sensitive, but the area is small and over quickly. What changes the sensation is the continuous cooling running at the very moment the energy goes in.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you wear make-up afterwards?<\/h3>\n<p>Better to wait. In the first days it is better not to load the skin with products; the full instructions are in the before &amp; after guide.<\/p>\n<h3>I have a few single hairs on my chin &mdash; is it worth treating?<\/h3>\n<p>At the assessment we check the colour of the hairs. Dark hairs respond well; white ones do not. If most of them are white &mdash; we will say so and not sell you a series.<\/p>\n<h3>From what age do you treat?<\/h3>\n<p>From 18 and up. Younger than that, hair is still affected by hormonal change, and on the face that is especially true.<\/p>\n<p>Want to check whether your hair responds before you decide? <a href=\"\/en\/free-laser-hair-removal-trial\/\">The trial session<\/a> includes a dermatoscope assessment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"oz-faq-ld\"><script type=\"application\/ld+json\" data-oz-faq=\"1\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/oz-clinic.co.il\/laser-hair-removal-face\/#faq\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How much does upper-lip hair removal cost?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"An upper lip on its own takes under five minutes.
