About Ingrown Hairs

Ingrown hairs occur when hair grows back into the skin instead of up and out of the follicle. They cause painful red bumps, inflammation, and can lead to infection and scarring. The bikini area, underarms, and face are the most commonly affected areas.

Laser hair removal with the Cutera Excel HR is the most effective treatment for chronic ingrown hairs. By permanently reducing hair growth, the follicle can no longer produce hair that curls back into the skin.
