WANTING A NORMAL LIFE

My sister was having a terrible problem with facial hair.  She’s only a teenager, still in high school and she’d been getting picked on quite a bit by people in her class.  She almost seemed like she was at the end of her rope, that there just wasn’t anything that could help her.  She tried plucking, she tried waxing, she tried over the counter creams and shaving but nothing seemed to be doing the trick.  I think that she visited every Chicago hair remover in the phone book, and not even the professional treatments were giving her the results that she wanted.  She finally visited a dermatologist who prescribed an oral medication for her to try.  The prescription doesn’t remove the unwanted hair, but it does inhibit the hair from growing.  She took the medication for a few weeks as the doctor had directed before hitting the spa for a removal treatment to clean up the hair that had remained and the results have been very positive for her.  There doesn’t seem to be any new facial hair coming in since she had her last treatment.  She’ll have to continue taking the medication, but if it’s going to help her lead a more normal life she certainly doesn’t mind.
