| 1 | Facial hair | Red inflamed scalp and extreme loss of scalp hair. | F | 59 | 10 years 2X day | 12/31/2015 | 4 | facial hair | None | I have to apply it once or twice a day but it stops 90% of facial hair growth. I use it on the chin area & above the lip. | F | 64 | 2 years 30 mg | 11/23/2015 | 5 | Reduce waxing & plucking | None, it does its job very well - hair growth stops or becomes very light and thin. | I've been on this drug for 6 years. Originally I used it only on my upper lip and eyebrows so I wouldn't have to wax as much, but 6 years later I am now using on my chin and neck. Maybe it because I started plucking those areas and now it grew back, but regardless wherever I apply the cream, it does its job and with no side effects. I will use this drug indefinately! Too bad it's not covered by my insurance because $78/tube is a lot. | F | 31 | 6 years | 2/18/2007 | 4 | excessive facial hair | I have successfully used this product for 3+ years with very good results. However, I have noticed over the past year that I have developed a loss of skin pigmentation where I apply the cream. Has anyone else had a similar experience? | F | 50 | 3 years | 7/15/2005 | 3 | unwanted facial hair | none | It really worked for me for two years. After waxing my upper lip and eyebrows and using this product every day...i no longer had to wax...BUT THEN NOW (after 2 yrs) it seems like I am building tolerance toward it and I am starting to wax again...very disappointed!!!! | F | 27 | 3 years | 3/9/2005 |
