[How I treat ... hypertrichosis].
Hypertrichosis can result from various origins and exhibit diverse clinical presentations. Any etiological treatment, when available, does not always lead to regression of the excess in pilosity. Most often, hypertrichosis represents a real esthetic burden and affects the patient's self-esteem. Currently the laser epilation technique offers new and promising therapeutic possibilities.
