Why the Hair Keeps Coming Back

Treat the trigger. End the shaving.

Hirsutism is coarse, male-pattern hair growth in women - driven by high androgens (male hormones) most often caused by PCOS, insulin resistance, thyroid disorders or family history. Laser alone treats the visible hair but new follicles keep activating until the hormonal driver is corrected. At Aevum Health, we combine hormonal workup and medical management with USFDA diode laser - so the hair goes and stays gone.

Know Your Hirsutism

Idiopathic vs. PCOS-driven.

Type 01

Idiopathic / Familial Hirsutism

  • Normal hormone levels; strong ethnic or family pattern
  • Coarse hair on chin, upper lip, jawline and side burns
  • Follicles more sensitive to normal androgen levels
  • Best treated with 6-10 laser sessions + maintenance
Type 02

PCOS / Endocrine Hirsutism

  • High androgens driven by PCOS, insulin resistance or thyroid
  • Often paired with irregular periods, acne or weight gain
  • New follicles keep activating without medical management
  • Best treated with laser + hormonal workup + medical therapy

At consultation, your skin is assessed to map the right combination to your hirsutism type, hormone profile and Ferriman-Gallwey score.

Quick Answers

Frequently asked questions.

What causes hirsutism in women?

Hirsutism is coarse, male-pattern hair growth caused by high androgens (male hormones) or by follicles being extra-sensitive to normal androgens. The commonest cause is PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), followed by insulin resistance, thyroid disorders, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, certain medications and hereditary / ethnic factors. A proper hormonal workup identifies the underlying driver.

Is hirsutism linked to PCOS?

Yes - PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) is the single most common cause of hirsutism in Indian women. If you also have irregular periods, acne, weight gain, insulin issues or fertility concerns, a PCOS workup is essential before starting long-term laser. Treating both together gives the best results.

What is the Ferriman-Gallwey score?

The Ferriman-Gallwey score is a clinical scoring system used to grade hirsutism - hair growth on 9 body areas (upper lip, chin, chest, upper & lower abdomen, upper & lower back, arms, thighs) is scored 0-4. A total score of 8 or above suggests clinically significant hirsutism and needs hormonal evaluation alongside laser.

Is laser or medication better for hirsutism?

Best results come from combining both. Medical therapy (hormonal balancers, insulin sensitisers, anti-androgens) treats the underlying trigger and stops new hair follicles from activating. Laser reduces the existing hair permanently by 70-90%. Using only one usually gives partial or short-lived results.

How many laser sessions are needed for hirsutism?

Hirsutism typically needs more sessions than routine laser hair removal because hormonal follicles keep reactivating. Plan for 8-10 sessions initially spaced 4-6 weeks apart, plus maintenance every 3-6 months as long as the hormonal trigger is active. Once the trigger is well-controlled, top-ups can drop to once a year.

Is laser hair removal safe for facial areas like the chin and upper lip?

Yes - the USFDA-cleared diode laser Aevum uses is specifically designed to be safe on delicate facial skin. A patch test is done before the first session to confirm the right settings for your skin tone. Any redness or slight swelling settles within a few hours. There is no downtime - you can go back to work the same day.

How much does hirsutism treatment cost in Goregaon West?

Cost depends on the areas treated (upper lip, chin, jawline, side burns, full face), the number of sessions and whether you need a hormonal workup. Small facial areas are the most affordable starting point. We share a clear, all-inclusive plan at consultation with no hidden fees. Free first consultation for every patient.
