Unwanted hair can feel like an uninvited guest at your birthday party. But before you declare war on all fuzz, let’s untangle two tricky cases: paradoxical hypertrichosis and hirsutism.
What is Paradoxical Hypertrichosis?
Imagine this – you get laser hair removal for smooth skin, but instead, hair sprouts in unexpected places! That’s paradoxical hypertrichosis, a surprising side effect triggered by some meds, hormonal issues or even the laser itself if the energies are not in alignment with your particular internal needs area. It’s a hair growth that pops up anywhere it wants to. Typically, it will happen on the sideburns and jawline and is almost impossible in other areas.
What is Hirsutism?
Hirsutism happens when the hormones go wild. When your body throws a hormonal dance party, hair can appear in “manly” spots like your chin, chest, or tummy. This is a more commonly occurring condition in women and is often linked to PCOS/PCOD or other genetic inheritance.
Paradoxical hypertrichosis may be rarer, but its unpredictable growth can be really daunting. Hirsutism, on the other hand, affects more people and can impact confidence, making you feel like you’re living in a costume that doesn’t quite fit.
