To the great regret and bewilderment of many women, they may well have hair around the nipples. What to do with this rather unaesthetic phenomenon? Before giving an answer to this burning question for many, one will have to understand the causes of hair in this unusual place for them.
So, if the hair around the nipples appeared unexpectedly, within a very short period of time, or there were several of them before, and now suddenly there are a lot more - visit a doctor immediately. You may have hormonal problems.
In general, there are only two main reasons for such an incomprehensible phenomenon as the hair around the nipples in women. Firstly, the increase in the number of male hormones in the body. This phenomenon can occur in the case of diseases of the endocrine system, pregnancy, or as a result of taking hormonal drugs. Secondly, the predisposition to the appearance of hairs can be inherited. More precisely, we can genetically inherit the sensitivity of androgen receptors.
If the doctor has not revealed deviations in the structure of the hormonal background, then you can calm down a bit: for health, the hairs around the nipples are not dangerous. However, women still remain unhappy and seek to lime this vegetation. Agree, this is understandable - such an unsympathetic feature reduces self-esteem.
Consider some ways to eliminate hair near the nipples. The most common way - armed with tweezers. Grab the hair and pull it sharply in the direction of growth. After removing all the hairs, wipe this tender spot with lotion. It is clear that the result will not be long-term. So in ten days, wait for the hairs to appear again.
Removal using hair removal products. Their use is quite effective - under the influence of a strong substance, the hair and, to some extent, its subcutaneous part may well dissolve and they can be easily washed off with a sponge. However, do not abuse such creams. Avoid getting them on your nipples, rinse off on time and follow the instructions in everything. In this case, you will also have to repeat the procedure approximately every 10 days.
Hair cutting is a safe method, after it there will never be irritation, as after applying the cream, but the effect is very short-lived.
Electric hair removal and waxing can be quite painful. The result can last up to five weeks.
Electrolysis is a radical method that will allow you to forget forever that you had hair around your nipples. Its essence lies in the destruction of germ cells in the hair follicle. This is done by introducing into each hair follicle a thin needle through which an electric current is supplied. The skin is not damaged, but there may be some scars or small bruises on it for some time.
Laser hair removal method is very effective, if only the hair does not grow due to hormonal imbalance . Its great advantages are that such a method is painless and safe. It is necessary to repeat laser hair removal several times to permanently get rid of hairs.
Another method - photoepilation - is also painless and is characterized by a rather long-lasting effect. But limited to one session does not work. And one more thing: before you go to the cosmetologist to remove the hairs around the nipples with this method, consult a mammologist.
Such a “barbaric” method as shaving off unwanted hairs is not recommended. Believe me, you should not do this: you only for a short time remove the outer part of the hair (which will become noticeable the next day), and the hair after that will be noticeably tougher.
