Ingrown Hairs:

  • Usually appear as a 1 mm to 2 mm red-purple bump or lump, surrounding hair follicles
    • Sometimes a hair can be seen growing below the surface of the skin
  • May be caused by close shaving, plucking or waxing hair
  • Are more common in areas with curly hair
  • Are sometimes tender and may form pustules or “whiteheads” when they become infected
  • May be aggravated by tight clothing, sweating or heat

  • When shaving:
    • Shave in the direction that the hair is growing
    • Leave some stubble – this will prevent the hairs from becoming in-grown
  • Avoid tight clothing, excessive heat or sweating if possible
  • Use mineral make-up that will not block your pores
  • Avoid applying heavy oils and other greasy or oily products to the skin or scalp
  • Use an antiseptic cleanser to wash your skin or hair every day
  • Antibiotic lotions or solutions may be applied to the affected area twice daily
  • In more severe cases antibiotic pills may be required
  • In stubborn cases, microdermabrasionchemical peels, and laser hair removal can be very helpful
