IPL Hair Removal for the Face in Bucharest

Hair removal for the face is one of the most requested procedures for people dealing with unwanted facial hair — upper lip, chin, cheeks or sideburns. At Nomasvello Mega Mall Point in Mega Mall Bucharest, the treatment uses IPL technology calibrated for the sensitive facial area, carried out by specialists with experience since 2016.

Facial areas treated with IPL hair removal

At Nomasvello Mega Mall Point you can treat the following areas of the face:

  • Upper lip — the area above the lip, one of the most frequently requested facial areas
  • Chin — unwanted hair on the chin and the area under the jaw
  • Cheeks and sideburns — hair on the sides of the face
  • Forehead — hairline on the forehead or the area between the eyebrows
  • Neck — the front and back of the neck

The exact area treated and your suitability are always confirmed at the initial consultation with our specialist.

Why the face needs a different protocol from the rest of the body

Facial skin is more sensitive than body skin, and facial hair often has different growth cycles — influenced by hormonal factors, medication and other individual characteristics. For these reasons, the protocol for the face is specifically adapted:

  • The recommended number of sessions is generally higher — roughly 8-12 sessions, compared with 8–10 for the body
  • The interval between sessions is shorter — roughly 3-4 weeks
  • The device settings are calibrated for the sensitivity of the facial area
  • Hormonal factors can influence the pace of treatment — discuss this at your consultation

The exact protocol is set by the specialist after the initial consultation, according to each client's individual characteristics.

How IPL hair removal works on the face

IPL technology — intense pulsed light — acts on the melanin in the hair follicle, progressively reducing its ability to produce new hairs. The settings are adjusted by the specialist at every session, depending on skin type, hair colour and how the treatment is progressing.

IPL is not effective on fine, reddish, grey or white hair — suitability is always assessed at the initial consultation. Find out more about laser and IPL hair removal at Nomasvello Mega Mall Point.

How long does a facial IPL hair removal session take?

The duration varies depending on the area treated:

  • Small areas (upper lip, chin, sideburns) — 5-15 minutes per area
  • Full face — 20-30 minutes
  • Face + neck — 30-45 minutes

Sessions can be booked daily between 10:00 and 22:00, weekends included, at Mega Mall Bucharest, Level -1.

Preparing for your facial IPL hair removal session

  • Shave or trim facial hair as short as possible 24 hours beforehand — do not wax or use an epilator
  • Do not apply foundation, creams, oils or cosmetic products to the area to be treated on the day of your session
  • Avoid sun exposure for at least 72 hours beforehand
  • Tell the specialist about any hormonal medication, dermatological treatment or relevant condition
  • If you have active acne in the area to be treated, tell the specialist at your consultation

What happens after the session

There is generally no downtime. Slight redness or temporary sensitivity may appear on the face, usually going away within a few hours. Avoid sun exposure after the session and apply SPF to the treated area. The specialist will give you specific advice at the end of every session.
