Is permanent hair removal from my face allowed in Islam?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftisays.com
Assalamualaykum. I have been diagnosed with a condition where I have an excess amount of the male hormone in my body. Due to this, I have excess facial hair. For the past few years, I have had to constantly have it removed. I have been recommended to have laser treatment to have it permanently removed in order to stop my wkin from getting worse and to save money in the long run. I would like to know if Permanent hair removal from my face is permissible. Jazakallah. Wassalam

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

Yes, it will be permissible in the case of a woman. However, in the case of a man the beard should not be removed.

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
