I would have thick hair on my arms, too, but I shave my forearms. There is the idea that shaving makes the hair grow thicker but I have not found this. I do have to shave my arms every few days, though. Still, it is quick and easy, and as I shower daily, there is no problem doing so. Anyhow, if you didn't like shaving a hair removing cream would be ideal. It'd be nice to get the hair removed for good but I doubt that will happen. You could even wax your arms. That's what I'd do, anyhow.

I posted the following to a poster on another thread:
My advice is to contact a dermatologist from highly regarded training hospital such as Johns-Hopkins or Mayo Clinic. See if a dermatologist from such a medical facility can help you.
Your condition might be covered by medical insurance because it seems it would impede your quality of life and ability to work.
I sincerely wish you the best.Comment

Hi Caroline,
I'm sure that Dubai Cosmetic Surgery Clinic is excellent.
Here's what I've learned from too many orthopedic surgeries: ask as many specialists, in this case dermatologists, whom they'd see if they had OP's identical condition. If one physician's name is mentioned most often by other dermatologists, I'd make an appointment to she her or him.
BTW, for some reason, most dermatologists deem to be women.Comment
