FDA-Approved Cream Reduces Facial Hair Growth

 
More than 22 million women in the United States struggle with unwanted facial hair each week. Many women report that this excess hair leaves them feeling self-conscious and unfeminine.

Unwanted facial hair is a common condition that affects women of all ages and ethnic backgrounds, and the causes are diverse, including heredity and hormonal disorders. It also can be a side effect of certain medications. Its severity can range from light growth on the upper lip to heavy growth that looks like a mustache or beard.

Even though facial hair is natural and normal, when it is unwanted, it can have a significant impact on a woman's self-esteem. Many women go to great lengths to hide this condition from even their closest friends.

The problem is more widespread than one might think, but it doesn't have to be.

More than 300,000 women have used Vaniqa (eflornithine hydrochloride) Cream, 13.9%, an easily applied topical cream that has been clinically proven to reduce facial hair growth in women. Vaniqa is the only product approved by the Food and Drug Administration for this condition.

There are numerous hair removal procedures such as waxing, tweezing, shaving and laser hair removal, but these options can be time-consuming, expensive and sometimes downright painful. Vaniqa, when paired with a woman's current hair removal method, reduces hair growth. This light cream can reduce not only the frequency of hair removal, but also the time spent removing hair.

"With 22 million women dealing with this skin condition on a regular basis, women need to know that there are alternative options available besides the weekly time-consuming regimens of hair removal," said Dr. Valerie Callender of the Callender Skin and Laser Center in Mitchellville, Md. "Women with unwanted facial hair do not have to live in shame. Vaniqa can help them regain their self-confidence, making it possible for their natural beauty to shine through."

Vaniqa does not remove hair, but rather reduces the rate of hair growth by blocking an enzyme. Therefore, women should continue to use their current method of hair removal in conjunction with Vaniqa. Women can consult a dermatologist or other physician to get a prescription for Vaniqa. The most frequent side effects related to treatment with Vaniqa are skin related.
