Ingrown hairs

Ingrown hairs can occur anywhere on the body, but are particularly common around the bikini line, chest, neck and cheeks. They are characterised by bumpy, red skin which can often be mistaken for pimples. Ingrown hairs are caused by a hair follicle being unable to push through the skin, causing it to get trapped and inflamed. While they often subside without treatment, in some cases ingrown hairs can get infected, resulting in increased pain and redness.
