What Is Excessive Hair Growth?
Although hair grows all over the body, not all of it is wanted or considered to be attractive when exposed. This is often referred to as excessive hair growth and is perceived differently in men and women. Unwanted hair for women typically refers to growth on the face, legs, underarms and bikini line, with men preferring to remove hair from their back, chest, and buttocks. Excessive hair growth can be particularly distressing for individuals, affecting self-esteem and leading to the pursuit of various hair removal methods to address the hair growth many of which are ineffective and time consuming.
What Causes Excessive Hair Growth?
Hair grows thicker in certain places of the body due to genetic predispositions, hormonal influences, and environmental factors. Androgenic hormones, particularly testosterone, play a significant role in promoting thicker hair growth in areas like the face, chest, and back in men. Women may experience similar effects under conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), hormonal imbalances, following pregnancy or the menopause. Genetic factors determine the density, colour, and texture of hair on the body, leading to variations between individuals. Many individuals, even without what would be considered excessive hair growth are seeking permanent hair removal solutions for areas that are exposed to save time, money and effort over the years.
