acne/facial hair..am i turning into a teenage boy??
ok girls..please give me some advice or reassurance on this one: I wonder if I am turning into a teenage boy..because by the looks of my face and neck, I wonder..LOL!
I am 5 weeks post-op, and the last three weeks I have had a problem with acne everywhere, but on my face, it is bad! So i got acne scrubs and astringent. Ok, not that much better, but not any worse either. However, in the last week, I have been experiencing large black facial hairs, on my chin and neck also. Not to sound gross, but more than the usual amount of a few of waxing and plucking. So I pluck them, and they come back..If i go more than a two days they are visible to the naked eye without straining to see.
I am worried because I have never had acne/facial hair in excess before, at least the acne since I was a teenager, but at 34 didn't think it would come on this bad..
anyone have any ideas?? Thanks!

Re: acne/facial hair..am i turning into a teenage boy??
I am 45 and going through this also. I thought before my surgery it was due to the meds I was on. Now it is worse. I changed my face cleaning routine and have been using Clearasil and Noxema. But I am still having trouble with small hairs on my chin and neck UGGG! I feel a little better I am not alone on this. But what can we do? Anyone?
