Treatment and Removal of Ingrown Hairs

Overview | Treatment | Before and After Pictures

Are you shaving every day to keep your unwanted hair in check, but suffering from painful and embarrassing ingrown hairs as a result? What’s the point of removing the hair if your skin looks red, brown, and bumpy after? Stop wasting your time, effort, and money shaving only to suffer from ingrown hair! Laser hair removal is an excellent, effective treatment option for both these aggravating problems.

Over 50% of all African Americans and 20% of Caucasian men are affected by ingrown hairs with shaving. Women also suffer from them, especially in the bikini area. It’s not the hair that’s the problem, but the hair removal! Areas with thick, curly hair fall victim as the razor cuts the hair, which then curls back into the skin as it grows out. Once the hair grows back into the follicle beneath the skin, the entire structure becomes inflamed and infected and a painful, red, or brown bump is the result.

Typically, ingrown hairs are common on the neck, face, legs, and pubic area. Waxing and depilatory creams can cause them too, so often, these alternative methods of hair removal don’t work well either. What does? Laser hair removal!

In fact, if you want to treat ingrown hairs and get rid of your hair at the same time, there’s no other treatment that can compare with laser hair removal. It works by creating powerful heat or thermal energy that is absorbed in the base of the hair follicle. This heat damages the follicle and the blood vessels feeding it, which cause it to become permanently damaged. No blood flow means no more hair. And no more hair means no more shaving, waxing, or depilatories, and most importantly, no more ingrown hairs!

Don’t let your ingrown hair give you another day of grief. Stop shaving just to hide those embarrassing, discolored bumps under clothes or make-up. Ingrown hairs are more than just an eyesore; they can lead to infections, extensive rashes, acne, and scarring!
