PCOS Hair Growth: When hormones don’t play by the rules.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) can trigger facial hair growth at any age due to hormonal imbalances, particularly elevated androgen levels. These hormones can stimulate excess hair growth on the face—most commonly on the upper lip, chin, jawline, neck, and sideburn areas. Facial hair related to PCOS may begin during adolescence, persist into adulthood, or develop later in life. Hormone influenced hair is persistent and the ongoing management is like rolling a boulder uphill.

Electrolysis to the rescue! Although a process and not a one-time treatment, it will PERMANENTLY destroy the area of the hair follicle responsible for growth, so another hair simply cannot grow.
