Facial hair removal after alopecia treatment?

I had alopecia areata (a 1 inch diameter bald patch right above my forehead, unlucky spot!) but thankfully it's all grown back now after I changed by job.

The problem is, the treatment I undertook has caused some facial hair to appear on my forehead reaching all the way down to my eyebrows, darker hair on my cheekbones and fine but dark hair like sideburns. I really hate it as I've got very fair skin and it makes me feel so self-conscious that I'm wondering if I can wax it.

The hair is supposed to fall out by itself as I've stopped the treatment, but I'm getting impatient. Will waxing it somehow make the hair "permanent"?

Thanks! :)

It shouldn't make it permanent. Talk to your doctor about it. Did they give you a time reference for how long the excess hair would stay?

Facial hair removal after alopecia treatment?

There are many ways to achieve this goal, both traditional as well as modern. Traditional methods include waxing, shaving, plucking and electrolysis. But you need to do these methods frequently as they do not destroy the hair root but just remove the hair from superficial level.

But with the arrival of laser, everything has changed. Though this treatment may seem expensive, it turns out to be economical in the end. This treatment is carried out by focusing a laser beam with low intensity on the hair follicles. This results in the destruction of hair roots but the skin surrounding it is not affected.
