Problems For Patients​

THE MOST COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT EXCESSIVE HAIR GROWTH THAT MAY ARISE IN THE PATIENT’S MIND ARE:
WHAT ARE THE CAUSES BEHIND EXCESS HAIR GROWTH?

Excessive hair growth in women may be caused by an increase in the amount of circulating male hormones called androgens in the body such as testosterone which promotes an abnormal and excessive growth of hair. This can occur as a result of a variety of certain systemic conditions.
It may also be caused by increased sensitivity of hair follicles to the effect of the androgens.

WHEN TO CONSULT A ESTHETICIAN ?

Hirsutism induces psychological stress on the individual in relation to her outward appearance. This can cause a reduction in self-esteem and should be treated as fast as possible.

IS THERE ANY PERMANENT TREATMENT?
Depending on the treatment option, the condition can be treated permanently. This may be done by the complete removal of hair follicles.

IS THE TREATMENT ONLY FOR WOMEN?
While women are more likely to seek treatment for excessive body hair than men, the treatment procedures are not only for women but men can also benefit from them.

What will happen after Excessive Hair Growth treatment?

After repeated treatments, the hair will cease to grow on the treated areas, especially if the hair follicles have been removed. There may be a minimal chance of blister formation directly after the procedure. Follow up sessions should be done every 3-4 months that will make the results more permanent.
