The treatment is performed with the computer-controlled Apilus system, which precisely regulates energy delivery – for noticeably more comfortable results.

Needle Epilation for Hormonally-Induced Facial Hair
(e.g., Hirsutism)
For hormonally-induced facial hair growth, such as hirsutism, individually tailored treatment planning is particularly important. Needle epilation enables permanent hair removal but requires patience and regularity.
📅Treatment Intervals – Individual, Not Standard
The interval between treatments is not based on a fixed schedule, but on actual hair growth.
Just 7-10 days after treatment, we can assess:
- how many new hairs are growing back
- how strong the hormonal influence is
- when the next appointment makes sense
Especially on the face, short intervals of 1-3 weeks are possible and often sensible – particularly at the beginning of treatment to keep the area consistently hair-free. Later, intervals can be extended to 3-6 weeks.
⏱️Treatment Duration & Expectations
Since hormonally stimulated hairs can be reactivated again and again, treatment usually takes place over a longer period. The goal is to permanently remove the hairs step by step and visibly reduce hair growth.
Accompanying hormonal evaluation (e.g., for PCOS) can additionally support treatment success.
💡Important to Know
- Only hairs in the active growth phase can be permanently removed
- Regular appointments significantly improve success
- Treatment is always individually adapted to your situation
❓ Can I use sugaring or threading between appointments?
Yes. Sugaring or threading can be used between treatments, provided the hairs have visibly regrown for at least 7-14 days before the next appointment. Tweezers should be avoided if possible.
❓ Is the treatment effective for hormonal hair growth?
Yes. Needle epilation is the only method that can permanently remove hormonally-induced hair. Regularity and patience are crucial.
