What is Unwanted Hair?

What Causes Unwanted Hair?
The development of unwanted hair is a complex interplay of various factors:
- Genetics: Your genetic blueprint determines hair growth patterns and density across your body.
- Hormones: Fluctuations in hormones, particularly androgens, can trigger excessive hair growth in both men and women.
- Medical Conditions: Health issues such as PCOS or hirsutism may result in increased hair growth in regions more commonly associated with male hair patterns.
- Medications: Some pharmaceutical treatments, including certain steroids or hormonal therapies, may stimulate hair growth as a side effect.
- ETHNICITY AND AGE: Ethnic background can influence hair growth patterns and is subject to change during different life phases such as puberty, pregnancy, and menopause.
Understanding these underlying causes is crucial in developing an effective treatment plan. At PURE Medical Spa, our expert aesthetic advisors conduct a thorough analysis to determine the primary factors contributing to your unwanted hair, allowing us to tailor our approach for optimal results.

Who Gets Unwanted Hair?
While unwanted hair can affect individuals of all backgrounds, certain groups may be more prone to this concern:
- Women with Hormonal Imbalances: Conditions like PCOS can lead to excessive hair growth in women.
- Post-Menopausal Women: Hormonal changes during menopause can lead to increased facial hair growth in women.
- Men with Excessive Body Hair: Some men may desire hair reduction in the back, chest, or shoulders.
- Individuals with Endocrine Disorders: Certain endocrine conditions can cause abnormal hair growth patterns.
At PURE Medical Spa, we recognize the unique nature of each client’s skin concerns and offer personalized treatments to address acne and acne scars, regardless of origin or severity.
What Can I Do to Diminish the Appearance of Enlarged Pores?
What Can I Do to Diminish the Appearance of Unwanted Hair?
- Laser Hair Removal: Our state-of-the-art laser technology precisely targets hair follicles, gradually reducing hair growth through a series of treatments. This advanced method provides long-lasting results and is suitable for various body areas, including the face, arms, legs, back, and bikini area. Our laser treatments are customized to your specific skin type and hair color to ensure maximum efficacy and comfort.
- Waxing: Our expert aesthetic advisors offer professional waxing services for those seeking a temporary solution. This method removes hair from the root, providing smooth results that last for several weeks. We use high-quality, gentle waxing products to minimize discomfort and ensure optimal results. Our waxing services are available for various body areas, including the face, arms, legs, and bikini area.
- Dermaplaning: While primarily used for exfoliation and skin rejuvenation, dermaplaning also effectively removes fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the face, leaving your skin smooth and radiant. This procedure removes dead skin cells and fine hair using a sterile surgical blade, revealing a brighter, more even complexion. Dermaplaning can be performed as a standalone treatment or combined with other facials for even better outcomes.
