Because we see many women and men concerned with increased hair growth at our clinic, we are often asked how much hair is normal for a woman. There is no absolute answer.

50% of women remove facial hair at least once in a while and ten percent remove it two or more times a week. This dislike of hair is not confined to women — more and more men are opting to have chest or back hair removed as well. Men often opt for laser hair removal treatment on the beard area to treat and prevent ingrown hairs.

When visiting Dermology medical skin clinic for the first time a highly trained hair removal specialist will assess the area of concern and discuss all treatment options with you.

There is no sharp dividing line between normal and abnormal amounts of hair. Facial and body hair is a very personal matter. Unwanted hair on the visible areas of the body like hands, feet, face , back and chest one of the main cosmetic problems faced today by many women and men.
