Unwanted Hair!

Hey guys,

     Anyone found anything that helps with the unwanted facial hair?  I tried lazer treatments, but they did not work.  They also left me very discolored and it looked worse than before.  The dark color has faded now....that was years ago.  I am wondering if you have any suggestions.

Thanks,

Jane

I would check with your dermatologist they are coming up with new things all the time.  I have done well with laser treatments so that is the only thing I have tried.

That is what  4 different doctors have suggested but it doesn't work for me.  So, I think this is the perfect place to ask people all over the country.
Any more suggestions?

I've been using Vaniqua for a few months and I have found that is has GREATLY decreased my hair and reduced the size/texture of the hairs that remain.

I recently asked my doc for spirolactane but I haven't started using it yet...

I went in and talked to the doc about hair removal. He actuallyh told me the lasor wouldnt work for me because of my blonde hair. Said its harder when your blonde. He explained it and it made a lot of sense. So he told me to go out and find someone who did "sugaring" Its like waxing, hurts a little less, costs a little more but lasts longer.
I will go in and do that, but its the price, so I dont get in as often as I would like! You can do it at home, but I wouldnt. Just cause I want someone who knows what they are doing to help me out!
 When Im low on cash I pluck pluck pluck... Ouch ouch ouch! lol

I had luck with Laser removal because I have pale skin and dark hair (lucky me).

What are the side effects of Vaniqua? doesn't is grow back if you stop taking it?
