Hello, I'm a 17 year old girl and I literally have hair everywhere! On my face, neck, chest, back, stomach, hands, etc. it's not feminine and it makes me look dirty. I'm Mexican, brown so it makes me look even darker. My moms side of my family is also really hairy but I'm dark like my dad so it's really noticeable on me. Any way to get rid of so much hair? At least on my face/neck. Thank you. While I'm at it, does anyone know how to get rid of my dark sports cause my previous acne. Thank you!
Answer: Hair on Face The best treatment is electrolysis or laser and vaniqa cream. I suggest seeing an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Facial Hair Removal For Women You would be a good candidate for laser hair removal to help get rid of the hair on your face. Your acne scars can be treated with a variety of treatments ranging from at home skin care products to chemical peels. I would wait until your laser hair removal treatments are complete before treating the acne scars. Make sure you find an experienced laser hair removal provider so you don't end up with burns or additional pigment changes. Hope this helps.

Answer: Facial hair is at risk for paradoxical hair growth with LHR in darker skin types I'd be cautious getting LHR with you darker skin type for risk of getting more hair growth. The reason this happens is not clear and it usually occurs in people of Mediterranean heritage. If you get LHR, it should be a 1064 laser. I'd recommend Vaniqa. Even in lighter skin individuals, these areas are not well treated because the hairs are thinner than the underarm and bikini area and therefore don't pick up the heat from the laser well.
