Why unwanted hair happens Hair growth is driven by genetics and hormones. For many people the hair you don’t like is simply inherited (family pattern). In others, excess or coarse hair in a “male-pattern” distribution (upper lip, chin, chest, back) may reflect increased androgen (male hormone) exposure or conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and noticed persistent red spots or fine lines that seem to deepen over time, you’re not alone. These are some of the most common skin concerns we hear from patients. The good news? Modern laser technology, like Fraxel®, offers a safe and effective way to refresh your skin and restore a smoother, more even appearance.

Acne can be frustrating on its own—but for many people, the lasting scars left behind are a reminder that sticks around far longer than any breakout. Fortunately, advancements in dermatology have given us effective ways to address these scars without surgery or extended downtime. One of the most trusted and proven options is SkinPen® microneedling.
