For Hirsutism "I used this cream a long time ago and was very happy. It's pretty expensive, costs me about $150. My pharmacy was able to get me a voucher. I stopped using it because it was so expensive and started using other hair removal products. I'm fair-skinned, and the OTC products burned my face so bad. I eventually went back to the Vaniqa. A tube usually lasts me for 3 months, so I figured the cost was reasonable compared to other products I used. I have read some bad reviews, so I guess everyone is different. I start Vaniqa daily, but just once a day in the evening before bed. I apply pretty much on my entire lower face and neck area. I'm really hairy, and although they are blonde, it looks terrible. I love this product, it really works for me."

For Hirsutism "This stuff is absolutely amazing! After a week of using, I barely have any patches left to shave after doing so for around 10 years! Only been using it a month and cannot wait to see how much better it gets in time. I did have some slight burning and lots of spots for the first 10 days of using it, but both have really settled down. To be honest, if I had more time to just wait a little after shaving before applying, it probably wouldn't burn so bad in the first place, so definitely wait around 20 minutes after removing hair to apply."

For Hirsutism "This cream is not for me! It burned my skin, and I have been dealing with really bad skin since, although I stopped using it as soon as I broke out. My face is completely covered with small pimples and blackheads for weeks. I can't believe I paid this much money for a cream, just to have my face get this bad. I'd rather have hair on my face, quite honestly."
