About ingrown hair – Treatment and prevention

About ingrown hair orPseudofolliculitis barbae Pseudofolliculitisbarbae or ingrown hair refers to the inflammation of a hair follicle. In everydayterms ingrown hair is known as “razor bumps” and “razorburns.”   Aningrown hair is a hair that curls and penetrates the skin with its tip, causinginflammation. It occurs when a hair pierces and enters the skin adjacent to thefollicle, causing inflammation and a foreign body reaction. In the same way,when a hair curls back onto itself before exiting the epidermis it often formsan ingrown hair, which, like a razor bump, causes inflammation and a foreignbody reaction.   Ingrownhairs are quite common in the beard area of the men. However, they can also occuron other parts of the body where hair is shaved or plucked, especially areas ofthe body where hair is curly and the skin is sensitive, such as the pubic area.Ingrown hairs are more common among people with very curly hair.   What are infectedingrown hairs and how to get rid of them? Quiteoften an ingrown hair becomes irritated or inflamed with bacteria causingtroublesome infected ingrown hair. An infected ingrown hair is marked byinflammation of the skin followed by pus formation. It may cause you itchingand pain. An infected pustule can become ruptured, resulting in bleeding. In chroniccases, an infected ingrown hair may also generate scars.   Givenbelow are the steps to get rid of an ingrown hair – ·         Clean the area to remove any bacteria that maybe present before attempting to remove the ingrown hair. ·         Soak a clean cloth in warm or hot water and layit across the infected ingrown hair and surrounding area for about 3 minutes.This will cause the ingrown hair to loosen. This will sometimes make theingrown hair come up to the surface. Check to see if this has happenedotherwise place the cloth over the area again and wait until it does. ·         Using your tweezers, gently lift the infectedingrown hair from the hair follicle. You can ‘pluck’ the hair as well, but ifthe hair has loosened enough from the warm cloth, you should be able to justsimply pull the hair out. ·         Once you have removed the infected ingrown hair,apply hydrogen peroxide. Following this you may apply a bandage if required. ·         Apply hydrogen peroxide twice a day to ensurefaster healing process and prevent it from becoming infected yet again.   Precautions to avoidingrown pubic hair Listedbelow are tips that can help you avoid ingrown pubic hair – ·         Always remove pubic hair after a bath or showerwhen your pores will be slightly open, making it easier to remove hairs fromthe root. ·         If you are planning to wax your pubic hairexfoliate the area a day before. This will help remove some of the dead skinwhich can sometimes trap the ingrown hair. ·         Wear loose fitting underwear and clothingbecause this will help until the bumps are gone. ·         You may also consider using depilatory creams toremove pubic hair. This will eliminate the need for regular shaving and thechances of getting an ingrown hair.   What are Alpha HydroxyAcids and how they are effective in ingrown hair treatment? AlphaHydroxy Acids (AHA’s) are acids which are popularly used in skincare to helpremove dead skin cells from the surface layer of the skin. Some Alpha Hydroxy Acidsare known as ‘fruit acids’ as they come from fruit. The AHA’s have been studiedin several clinical studies and have been proven to be effective for treatmentof fine wrinkles and rejuvenating the skin.   The most common AHA is the glycolic acid.   Cosmeticproducts such as Skin Doctors Ingrow Go make use of glycolic acid – an alphahydroxy acid – to remove ingrown hair.
