Ingrown hairs occur when hair curls back into the skin instead of growing outward. This commonly happens with shaving, waxing, or tweezing, especially when shaving against the natural hair growth.
They often present as itchy bumps and can become infected if scratched, leading to inflammation or folliculitis.
Professional removal helps prevent further irritation, while Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) gently exfoliate the skin, reduce blockages, and lower the risk of recurrence.
If ingrown hairs are a recurring concern, targeted treatment and correct home care are key.
