Hair Reduction
The presence of some thicker hair in certain areas, such as the chin, the fluff and close to the ear, seem like great intruders in the female face and can cause a lot of discomfort, directly affecting self-esteem. Smooth, hairless skin is undoubtedly more attractive. Excess hair, also known as hirsutism, affects the self-esteem of thousands of women on a daily basis and is due to a hormonal imbalance.
