- Ingrown Hair Treatment FAQ’s
An ingrown hair is a hair that does not emerge from the follicle but remains embedded in the skin, usually causing inflammation. If left untreated, ingrown hairs can result in pain, itching, tenderness and in some cases, infection and permanent scarring.
Ingrown hairs can occur after hair removal when dead skin cells accumulate and form a papule as the skin heals. Hair growing in the area gets trapped under the papule and is prevented from exiting the skin, creating an ingrown hair. Irritating and unsightly ingrown hairs can occur on any part of the body.
