Excessive chin or facial hair, or suddenly increased growth in hair on any part of the face, may be a sign of a condition called hypertrichosis. The type of hypertrichosis specific to women is called hirsutism.
The possible causes could be mostly Hormonal imbalance ranging from PCOS, Cushings synd or Androgen Secreting tumors.
Laser Hair Reduction is the best treatment for the same. Make sure there is no hormonal variation before starting these treatments
