Default I'm a 26 year old female with facial hair. Will Vaniqa cream or Spironolactone help??? Any other ideas???

I've got fair skin and fair hair, so electrolysis is not an option. I really don't want to have to wax/shave my face. Has anyone tried Vaniqa cream? If so, do you know if it can be used in combination with Retin-A cream (I use that for acne). Also, has anyone tried Spironolactone (Aldactone)? Any other ideas for me??? Thank you so much for your help!

Actually, electrolysis is perfect for you. It's the laser hair removal that won't work, as it will only target dark hair. But unless the hair is coarse, I wouldn't bother with the electrology either.



Spiro works great, if you don't mind a lowered libido. Just watch the potassium. Report Abuse

Vaniqa made me break out and did not slow hair growth. it takes salicylic acid to make the bumps go away. Report Abuse

I use Sally Hansen's Wax Strip Kit. I know you said you didn't want to wax, but it's really easy and keeps you hairless for a long time.

Hi

The best way to remove facial hair is to kill the "germative" cells. These cells form the growth centre at the base of the hair follicle. Passing a direct current through the hair to the base of the follicle can act as permanent hair remover which can be done by using Verseo ePen. This process damages the root of the hair every time a treatment is repeated resulting in the cells being unable to grow more hair. Verseo ePen Hair Remover is perfect if you want to get rid of unwanted facial hair, hair around the bikini line, or even hair under the arm.
