Facial Hair Growth?!

I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant and I have PCOS. Before falling pregnant I had laser hair removal on my face which worked well although was something I needed to keep on top of every few months due to the hair being hormonal. Since being pregnant I completely stopped all laser treatments and switched to waxing and plucking the hair however I am now really struggling with this. The facial hair I have is thick, dark and coarse and even plucking and waxing I still cannot keep up with it and it’s not removing all the hair. (A lot of the hair is thick and sits under my skin making it hard to remove) I have reached a point where I can pluck my whole face in the morning and by the evening I need to do this again due to the regrowth. It is something I have always been really self conscious about and I really have tried everything people reccomend to prevent growth. Do you know how soon after giving birth I can start using my laser machine again? I understand that this hair has increased in growth due to hormones… does anyone know how long after birth it takes for the growth to reduce back to what it was before I was pregnant? Thanks

I believe you can start laser as soon as you’ve delivered, it won’t be affected by anything else. You may find it a little more sensitive in the early days. Mine has also started growing back and I’m going to get my electrolysis top ups booked in asap! Perhaps try some spearmint tea as that often helps reduce hair growth in PCOS ladies
