FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT ARE INGROWN HAIRS?

Ingrown hairs, also known as pseudofolliculitis or razor bumps, are one of the most annoying problems, one can encounter in day to day skin care. They are a nuisance for both men and women, due to unsightly and painful characteristics.

WHAT CAUSES INGROWN HAIR?

Known causes of Ingrown Hair/ Razor Bumps include:

Oil stuck in the hair follicles
Dry skin
Coarse, curly, or stiff hair
Shaving too close, or shaving against the direction of hair growth
Any kind of hair removal, including waxing, electrolysis, shaving and tweezing.

WHY DO RAZOR BUMPS OCCUR?

Most frequently razor bumps occur when hair is shaved and a short sharp stump is left behind, which then begins to grow back. When it grows back, it curls inwards and its tip punctures the skin and re-enters. The skin then deduces that this is a foreign object and attacks it. In the process, irritation and somtimes inflammation results. For some people, ingrown hairs are a serious problem because they can cause bleeding and permanent scarring of the skin.

WHAT ARE INGROWN HAIR TREATMENT OPTIONS?

There are several widely-available solutions that can combat ingrown hairs. These are shaving, plucking, waxing and using crèmes and gels. These methods all produce temporary solutions. StudioMD offers laser based hair removal treatments using the most effective lasers to remove ingrown hair. Laser hair removal is gaining popularity as more people switch over in search of a more effective solution to razor bumps.
