Question

I have taken about 6 laser upper lip removal sessions from a reputed clinic. But my growth has reduced from 10 days to a month only. The clinic is now charging me a bomb for the maintenance sessions. how should I be dealing with my upper lips now. Can I get threading done ?

Hello, Thanks for your question. Maintenance session plays an important role in improving the results especially in facial hair since they are stubborn. Usually maintenance is required 3 times in a year. There are creams to extend the hair free period, you can discuss about this to your provider. Good luck.

Consider discussing with the office manager a new package which will make your cost reasonable or take your money and business elsewhere - threading can work for after hair removal. 
]Also consider discussing with a physician options to manage hormones and accelerated hair growth by using spironolactone or saw palmetto/chrysin etc
