What Areas of the Nose Can Be Treated?
Depending on where unwanted hair is present, the treatment area can include:
The wings of the nose
The bridge of the nose
The edge of the nostrils
Safely accessible visible hair at the front of the nostrils
Nose Treatment Boundaries
The purpose of treating hair around the nostrils is limited to cosmetically visible hair. Glow Lab does not remove hair deeper inside the nose.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
The CLARITY II 755 nm laser used at Glow Lab is indicated for hair reduction through selective targeting of melanin in hair follicles. Its FDA documentation describes temporary hair reduction and stable long-term or permanent hair reduction after a treatment regimen.
Hair Color and Treatment Suitability
Because the laser targets melanin in the hair follicle, hair pigment is an important factor in treatment. For facial hair, Glow Lab evaluates fine hairs individually; very light-colored, white, colorless, or gray hair generally do not provide enough pigment for effective laser targeting.
Laser Technology Used at Glow Lab
Glow Lab uses Lutronic CLARITY II and Cynosure Elite+ laser systems. Both systems provide 755 nm Alexandrite and 1064 nm Nd:YAG wavelengths. FDA documentation for both systems includes indications for stable long-term or permanent hair reduction.

Contraindications
We do not perform this treatment during pregnancy; with an active infection, open skin damage or marked irritation in the area; with suspicious or unassessed lesions in the area; after recent active tanning if your specialist considers the treatment unsafe; or while you are taking or using medication or products that contraindicate laser treatment.
Isotretinoin, photosensitising medication, a tendency to keloid scarring, certain medical conditions and other medical factors are assessed individually through the intake form, waiver and our protocol. If there is any doubt, the treatment is postponed.
Before your treatment
Before your treatment, we review medications, recent sun or tanning, pregnancy, active skin conditions or infections, recent procedures, and relevant medical history. Your specialist confirms that the treatment is appropriate for you.
