(Over)hair on the face, or hirsutism, is common and results in dark, thick hairs in areas such as the upper lip, chin or cheeks. This can be caused by hormonal fluctuations, genetics or medical conditions.
Permanent facial hair removal is often reimbursed by health insurance companies with supplementary insurance.
There are effective solutions to permanently remove or reduce facial hair. The most commonly used methods are laser hair removal and electric epilation.
Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light that heats and destroys the pigment in the hair follicles, preventing further hair growth. This method is fast, effective and works especially well on dark hair types. Multiple treatments are required for long-lasting results because hair is treated at different stages of growth.
Electric epilation
Electric epilation (or electrolysis) is suitable for all hair colors and skin types. A thin needle is inserted into each hair follicle, after which a small electric current destroys the hair follicle. This provides a permanent solution to unwanted facial hair.

With additional insurance, many skin treatments are often reimbursed, such as treatments for acne, acne scars, pigmentation spots, redness and facial hair removal. We have contracts with all health insurance companies.
Several sessions are necessary for long-lasting results, usually 6 to 8 for laser hair removal, depending on hair growth and the area treated. With electric epilation, the number of sessions depends on the quantity and thickness of the hair, but in any case, it requires more treatments compared to laser hair removal.
Most people experience a slight tingling or warm sensation during laser hair removal, but it is well tolerated. With electric epilation, there may be a slight tingling sensation with each hair, but this is also generally not painful. A numbing cream can be used if necessary.
Yes, both methods are safe. Laser hair removal works on pigmented hairs (light brown, brown and black). If hairs are blond, gray or reddish, electric epilation is the best treatment for permanent hair removal.
After laser hair removal, the skin may be temporarily somewhat red or slightly irritated, but this usually disappears within a few hours. With electric epilation, there may also be some minor redness or swelling, but this too quickly disappears. Both treatments require minimal recovery time.
