Discoloration on upper lip due to threading. Could laser hair removal be a solution?

Asked By:nadia1006

Hi! I have developed discoloration around my mouth area that seems to become darker with years. I believe the fact that I thread my upper lip hairs, might be the cause of this discoloration. What should I do? I do have some great products from skinceuticals etc, but it does not help as I continue to thread my upper lip hairs. Could IPL laser hair removal be a solution and then treat the area with right products? Thanks beforehand!
