[@roshniravindran9400]

I've been looking forward to a video on this topic. Thank you so much! After 10+ years of removing facial hair, I've developed hyperpigmentation around the mouth and chin. Like you said, the pigmentation is worse than actually having the hair. I wish I had been more informed at a younger age. Hope more people watch this video and learn to avoid the common mistakes.

[@murk959]

That's really unfortunate! Hope you were able to figure out a solution! Do you mind me asking what exactly? caused the hyperpigmentation

[@amelia-jd3vy]

What caused it

[@Maria-sg4zy]

I swear you be on time. I've had to deal with facial hair for 30 years. Had laser treatments years ago, and it returned after a while. I have been using Nair Cream on my face and it burns, leaving me with slight Hyperpigmentation on my cheeks and chins. I follow your layering for hyperpigmentation and it works wonderfully, but I still have a way to go.

[@razojacqueline]

Why didn’t you redo the laser hair removal?

[@carolynlevy3786]

I had a reaction a few years ago with waxing my eyebrows when using retinol, it burned my skin, so she is absolutely right. I wish I knew that back then. I also used hair removal cream on my face and it became irritated, now I have hyperpigmentation around my upper lip on one side. I will probably look into the epilator. Great video Dr. V, thank you.

[@pilotjones9866]

I’m only saying this so for sure others won’t make the same terrible mistake I did. Waxed my upper lip while on adapalene (I KNOW!!!😭😭😭) and I still have a hyperpigmentation mark from that, it completely tore my upper lip apart. Been on a consistent routine with vit c, alpha Arbutin, mineral spf and tretinoin and it’s been slowly improving. But nearly 1.5 years later and it’s still there so rip to her..

I just went to my 6th dermatologist for hair and hyperpigmentation yesterday. Came home in tears because they have no idea how to treat skin conditions for PoC. Every doctor/nurse/incoming patients... NONE of them looked like me. Not one doctor sent me for bloodwork or really looked/touched my skin. I’m just so tired. PCOS is the absolute worst. It makes me furious to witness actual doctors be so dismissive. Thank you for sharing important skincare I would be even more lost without your channel. I should send you my co-pay🤣... I paid 30$ yesterday to be told to go tanning. 😫 And I just got to the end of your video and one of my doctors (the one I visited the most) actually suggested electrolysis, this is the same guy who prescribed me $50 bleaching cream that did not agree with my skin - twice. 😤

[@sunshinesunflowerz1647]

Once I pay off some of my responsibilities, I definitely am investing electrolysis because HONEY!!!! I’m tired of plucking, every other day to week. Groupon is my friend! and PCOS is the devil so I’m taking control of my pancreas.

Yes please, if I only use eye cream, then the skin will look dry after a few hours (while the rest of the face’s moisturizer is still damp) Then I tried to put sleeping mask on top, still dry in the morning.. So I add moisturizer on top of eye gel, then another layer of occlusive cream to keep the area moist, but Im concern if it will cause milia/not if I continue that way

Use cerave moisturizer cream under eyes while it’s damp after washing your face..use only an oil cleanser followed my a gently cleanser to remove eye makeup if u do use..make sure your drinking enough water..and lastly you can put a small amount of either aquaphor or cerave healing ointment right under before bedtime!

Dr. Rattan, your advice is transforming my skin! Thank you so much for the invaluable information. One of my fellow Desi friends said that her dermatologist told her that something like 75%+ of Asian and African descended people are allergic to dairy, and that her acne was caused by a dairy sensitivity. She cut out dairy and her acne and PIH cleared up a little over a week later. Could you perhaps talk about allergies/sensitivities unique to people of color and how they affect our skin?

[@monibasiddiqui9799]

She is so right about vitamin A. I burnt my upper lip so badly 3 times and after 3rd time I figured out it was because of tretinion and acutane medicine 😬😬😬 it took almost 1.5 month for that mark to go away thanks to Vaseline it helped alot!!!

[@angieg601]

This was so helpful. I have learned the hard way about hair removal creams and tweezers. I've gotten better with the tweezers since I tend to get ingrown hairs, especially around my chin and jawline. Because I experience hyperpigmentation when I nick my skin during tweezing, is there anything I should do to prep my skin when trying to remove ingrown hairs?

[@Shilpa91000]

I thread and i cut myself sometimes...this had led to hyperpigmentation which had taken so long to fade and i'm still on the journey to clear skin. Then i started thinking what can i use as a barrier to protect my skin during threading and thought i would try vaseline which actually worksled amazingly. Also do hair removal straight after shower when your pores are open so hairs will be easier to be pulled out.

[@hummingbirdess8763]

Shilpa91000 please try something other than petroleum as it is a waste product from the manufacturing of oil and gasoline. ( look it up) It contains way to many things that are not healthy. As the Dr. stated, use an oil on your face.

As a holistic master esthetician of over thirty years and a dark skinned women I have seen people damage their skin by threading, waxing and plucking. The best way I have found to have my clients have flawless skin after removing hair with no bacterial or fungal or discoloration issues, is to simply shave. I do recommend shaving daily in areas of extra hair growth like you chin, lip and eye brows.

[@MaryThiboudeax]

I’ve done laser hair removal on just about every part of my body including my face. If you have PCOS you’ll see about 90% different. However, please note, regardless of how it’s advertised laser hair removal is not permanent...I got it done first in 2006 and went back last year 2019 for a second round (touch ups) ...so about every 15 years which isn’t bad all things considered. Also NEVER ever pay full price for laser if you’re in the states. It’s an over saturated market so you can find Groupons. As long as they are using the YAG laser it’s all good.

Dr V, I agree, threading on the upper lip hurts big time, but it is so worth it. I used to get my entire face threaded but with Covid the Treading places are closed. So, I have resorted to dermaplaning/shaving. Once life becomes normal (or has normal as post Covid will be), I will go back to threading.

Hello Dr V, after waxing or laser treatment, how long should I wait before I can start using my chemical exfoliants?

[@sravsp7696]

Pls provide a reply

[@caitieeeee]

I am a waxer, not a dr, but generally two-three days is what I told clients, but if you have thin skin I would wait even up to a week, depending on the product you use. Edited to clarify: I am only talking about waxing, not laser.

[@sravsp7696]

Caitie Regan u mean u can use Alpha Arbutin kinda stuff too between the treatment sittings ?

[@caitieeeee]

@@sravsp7696 if you are talking about a treatment that is OTC, like that you buy without a prescription, alpha arbutin is probably safe for use after waxing, like even the next day or two if it doesn't have an acid in it. The main contraindications are treatments like retin-a, which I would say people should stop using at least a week in advance of a wax, and accutane (which... just don't get waxed while using it, you have to stop months before getting a wax). I use differin OTC so I am not waxing my face right now, even though I could probably get away with stopping treatment for a week and doing my lip. As far as I know alpha arbutin is not a skin thinning brightener so it shouldn't be a problem, but I would always defer to a dermatologist. If you have a concern, you can ask your doctor or your waxer/laser provider for help. Also I am not laser certified and I have never worked with it, so I cannot speak to laser; all I know is like a week of study from school 😂

Hi! Thanks for this informative video. Does one need to discontinue using Retinol or Vit C serums prior to using epilator for facial hair removal? Thanks!

I religious use the RITUAL brand sunblock SPF 50 UVA for face and body too. Is this safe. Please could you compare Ritual sunblock with Tropic.
