FDA Approved Drugs and User Comments: VANIQA

For Hirsutism “I have suffered with excessive hair growth on my chin for more than 10 years, I was tweezing in the morning then by the end of the day I was having to tweeze again! I have tried all sorts of things to remove it in the past but nothing has worked. I started using this cream 4 weeks ago and after 2 weeks I was disappointed as I thought it was not doing anything but now after 4 weeks I have never felt so smooth, I am not plucking just the odd one or two, I’m excited to see what it will be like after the expected 8 weeks as I am so much happier already. This really is amazing and I have had no side effects. I bought the cream online as I have spoken to the doctors numerous times about it and they have never helped, but now I know this works I will try and get it from them in future. I really hope that if you try it you are as happy as me with the results :)”

For Hirsutism “This cream has saved my life. I have always suffered from excess facial hair despite normal hormone levels. I used to spend hours plucking and the self-consciousness was ruining my life. I use this cream religiously twice a day and I swear, I could go a month without plucking and would be fine! I do still have a faint ‘moustache shadow’, but I am hoping this will fade over time. This is worth every penny.”

For Hirsutism “I have been using this for years. It works. I am out and guess what? The manufacturer will not be making it again until September due to no active ingredient available. How in the hell is that possible? You have a patent. You are the only maker of this drug in the USA and you cannot supply it. I am distraught about this. What am I supposed to do now? What are all these women supposed to do?”

For Hirsutism “I used Vaniqa for a very long time but I still had some hairs that were resistant to it. It has priced itself out of my fixed income range. Personally I believe it is ridiculous for a Company to charge $197.00 for a 4 oz. tube of medication.That is just plain highway robbery when they know they are the only one out there. I have something new I am using that is much cheaper! After all this time it seems a generic is due!”

For Hirsutism “I’m thrilled with this product. After using for 6 weeks I have gone 7 days without have to remove facial hair. I have blond hair so hence laser wouldn’t work for me. After going through the menopause I was having to pluck almost daily, I was staggered at the speed the hair was growing. I heard about this product googling methods of hair removal, and found out it was available on prescription in the UK. I went to my GP, thinking I would have to beg to get it prescribed as it’s very expensive. My GP was extremely sympathetic and happily agreed, and wished me good luck, as I believe sadly it doesn’t work for everyone. I really hope more and ladies hear about this product. Absolute life saver!!”

For Hirsutism “I’ve been using this for over three months now, and I’m delighted with it. I’ve tried almost everything else on the market during the last 30 years, none of which have worked as well as this. After two weeks I was ready to be disappointed but it gradually started to work. Yes, it’s expensive (a tube lasts about 9 weeks), but it’s worth every penny to see the hair growth almost disappear. I still have to use a no-no (hair removal system) once a week and occasionally the tweezers, but the difference is remarkable. To feel a smooth chin and upper lip is just great!”
