About Unwanted Facial Hair |
Unwanted facial hair, or UFH, can be a few individual hairs on the chin, a light growth on the upper lip, peach fuzz on the cheeks, or coarse, dark hair in any of these areas. Only you can decide if your facial hair is unwanted - one woman may find the slightest growth on her lip or chin terribly bothersome, while another woman may have visible hair on her upper lip and not be bothered at all.
The first step in finding a solution for UFH is to talk with your doctor. You can create a personalized checklist that can help you talk about unwanted facial hair with your doctor.
