Hair growth specifically where I used to get bad acne?
Hi everyone! Not sure if this is a unique experience or not and I kinda wanted to see.
I used to get pretty bad cystic acne on my face, but really only in specific spots. Two of those spots are on my chin, on either side. My acne has healed since I got an IUD, but my hair growth has not slowed at all. Maybe even increased. Ill still get occasional thick hairs elsewhere on my chin, but it really seems centralized on spots where I used to get bad cystic acne. For example, ill maybe find one hair on my chin every 2 weeks in other spots, just one, but those two spots where I had cystic acne in the past seem to grow maybe like 5 every 1-2 days. Very quickly.
Does this happen to everyone else?? I just find it so strange 😭 But its also making the acne scarring more obvious I feel. Its already darker than the rest of my skin and the hair on my chin is also always pitch black 😑
