Ever go for a ride on a sunny day, the radio playing your favorite song. Feeling good, you glance into the rear view mirror to check yourself out and oh no! there is hair every where, on the brows, over the lip, is that hair on the chin? What to do...waxing, threading, laser hair removal. There is another option.
The FDA has approved a prescription cream for excessive unwanted facial hair. Vaniqa reduces and controls the hair by blocking its growth with an enzyme inhibitor. Hair removal is still necessary but less frequently. This product is only for women but is appropriate for all ethnicities and skin types. Results are typically seen between 4-8 weeks of use, applying 2 times per day. A 30 gm tube of 13.9% cream goes for between $60-70.
As with any medication, side effects such as stinging, swelling, etc may develop. See a doctor if you experience anything unusual.
"But there are some things I know for certain: always throw spilt salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavendar for luck, and fall in love any time you can."
