Hair Growth

Condition descriptions

Hair growth naturally varies by sex, hormones, and genetics. However, excessive, unsightly, or recurrent hair growth can become a source of daily discomfort and self-consciousness.

In women, unwanted hair is often fine, localized, or hormonal in origin, particularly on the chin, upper lip, abdomen, and arms. It can also indicate an underlying hormonal imbalance.

In men, hair growth is generally denser and more widespread (beard, chest, back, shoulders). Controlling it is a growing demand in male aesthetic medicine.

At Clinique SkinIn in Brossard, Fotona Dynamis laser hair removal offers a lasting, safe solution suitable for all skin and hair types.

Causes

Causes of excessive or irregular hair growth:
  • Hormonal factors: excess androgens, menopause, puberty, pregnancy

  • Genetic predisposition and ethnicity

  • Repeated shaving or mechanical hair removal, which stimulate regrowth

  • Endocrine disorders: polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), hyperandrogenism

  • Medications that stimulate hair growth

  • Chronic skin inflammation or recurrent ingrown hairs

How to prevent

To maintain soft skin and avoid irritation caused by hair:
  • Avoid frequent shaving, which thickens hair and promotes ingrown hairs

  • Exfoliate regularly to release ingrown hairs and prepare the skin for treatments

  • Moisturize the skin after each hair removal session to restore the skin barrier

  • Apply SPF 50 sunscreen after laser treatment, as the skin is photosensitive

  • Consult for a hormonal assessment in case of sudden or unusual hair growth
