Q: I get ingrown hairs every time I shave. Can I get rid of them?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a common issue: Your freshly shaved, waxed or plucked skin appears smooth and hairless \u2014 until pimple-like bumps crop up days later.<\/p>\n

Ingrown hairs can occur anywhere on the skin, but they typically emerge in places you remove hair, like in the beard, pubic, leg and armpit areas, said Dr. Elizabeth Bahar Houshmand, a dermatologist in Dallas.<\/p>\n

They typically look like raised red or flesh-colored bumps, sometimes with hair or pus on the inside, said Dr. Amy K. Bieber, a dermatologist at N.Y.U. Langone Health.<\/p>\n

And they can be a persistent problem for some. But the good news is there are effective ways to prevent them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
