Abstract
Excessive facial hair in women can cause significant distress and may contribute to a reduced quality of life for those who are affected. Although there are a multitude of mechanical options used for hair depilation, over the years lasers have proved to be the most effective long-term option. However, the British Association of Dermatologists (BAD) recommends that facial hair removal should be carried out in specialised clinics by trained practitioners, as favourable treatment outcomes and the reduction of side effects is dependent on understanding how lasers work, choosing the appropriate parameters and using a suitable machine for each individual's needs. This article presents a facial hair removal treatment protocol from a clinical laser nurse perspective.
