Hi,

I can understand your stress regarding hair on your face. There are two treatments available :

1. Medically- By certain tablets which reduces the tendency to grow hair under strict medical supervision. By application of a cream containing Eflornithine is a drug found to be effective in the treatment of facial hirsutism.

2. Laser : Especially regarding lasers- there are multiple types of lasers and need good consultation with Cosmetic dermatologist to provide you best regimen for your kind of hair growth.

All the best.
