Every September, the global health community takes time to shed light on Polycystic Ovary
Syndrome (PCOS), a condition that affects millions of women across the world. PCOS
awareness is dedicated to many women who silently battle with hormonal imbalances and
the effects it has created on their self-esteem.
At PeachFuzz, we recognize that PCOS hair growth is one of the most visible challenges
brought by this condition. From stubborn chin hairs to hairs in other unwanted areas like
the chest, neck, etc., these changes can take a toll on not just your skin but your confidence.
This is why we’ve also dedicated this month, as well as this blog, to conversations around
PCOS as well as laser hair removal, which is a trusted way of getting rid of this excess and
unwanted hair growth.
Before we dive into the solutions, let’s understand what PCOS is and how it works.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder in women of reproductive age
characterized by irregular periods, excess androgen (male hormone) levels, and cysts on the
ovaries. Although symptoms may vary from person to person, this condition is usually
accompanied by hair growth in the chin area, jawline, upper lip, chest, and even stomach.
No thanks to the high androgen levels, which stimulate the follicles.
For many women, this translates to spending hours a week shaving, waxing, or tweezing to
get rid of this unwanted hair temporarily. However, with these methods come irritation,
ingrown hairs, and hyperpigmentation. And the emotional weight of constantly battling
these adds another layer to the already complex situation.
Let’s be clear, traditional hair removal methods weren’t designed with PCOS in mind, and
this is why laser hair removal has become a game-changer in this situation.
At PeachFuzz Laser, our advanced technology and expertise target the hair follicles at their
root, reducing hair growth over time. This has proven to be a very effective option for
managing PCOS hair growth, given that hormonal hairs respond well to treatment,
regardless of how coarse or dark they are. Unlike shaving, waxing, or tweezing, laser
treatments eliminate the possibility of ingrown hairs, irritations, or hyperpigmentation,
giving you smooth skin that lasts.
For us at PeachFuzz, beauty is beyond appearances – It’s also about how you feel in your
own skin. If you are navigating hormone imbalances, gaining control over excessive or
unwanted hair can be life-changing. Reducing or eliminating unwanted hair growth through
laser hair removal treatments not only smoothens your skin but also boosts your self-
esteem and mental well-being. Our numerous client stories include milestones like
regaining confidence at work and in relationships. That’s the kind of empowerment PCOS
Awareness month is about – acknowledging the challenges while celebrating solutions.
Our mission is rooted in inclusive beauty by making laser hair removal safe, effective, and
affirming for everyone, regardless of their skin color or tone. So if you’re managing PCOS,
what this means for you is that we’ll not just treat your unwanted hair, but we’ll do so with
compassion and education that’ll help you achieve your goals.

treatments tailored to hormonal hair growth.. They’ll also help you set realistic expectations
and treatment deadlines. With our services paired with our Fuzz Clinic aftercare products,
you can rest assured that your skin will stay calm, hydrated, and glowing throughout the

PCOS Awareness Month, we want every woman to know there are supportive, science-
backed ways to manage unwanted hair growth.
