Excessive Hair
Since teenage I have had lots of facial hair on my chin and chest and stomach. For face, I usually get katori wax done. But now I am loosing faith in that. I want to know what should I do about this? I know there isn't any permanent solution but still. Also I want to go in for lazer but I am scared due to the side effects.

Increased facial hair can be due to a variety of hormonal disorders. A number of them are treatable and should be treated medically. If after treating medically, the problem persists, permanent removal with laser should be considered. But a complete hormonal evaluation is a must.
