The sternum, also known as the breastbone, is a flat bone located in the center of the chest. It connects to the ribs and provides support for the chest muscles. The sternum is an integral part of the skeleton and helps protect vital organs such as the heart and lungs. It is covered in hair in some people, but it’s usually pretty thin. The sternum is also a common site for laser hair removal treatments. This procedure uses a laser to target and destroy hair follicles, resulting in permanent hair removal.
Some of the benefits of sternum laser hair removal include:
- Permanent hair removal
- It's less painful than waxing or plucking
- It can be done quickly and easily
- It doesn't cause skin irritation like shaving can
