I'm trying to figure out when it's best to use this cream and what the benefits are. I'm also wondering if it's okay to use it during the summer months. Could you give me some advice?

It would be helpful if you could provide the name of the cream you are referring to, so I can give you more specific information about its uses and benefits. Additionally, whether a cream can be used in summer depends on its ingredients and formulation. Some creams may be too heavy or occlusive for hot and humid weather, while others may be specifically designed for summer use.

I'm curious if eflora eflorithine hydrochloride cream 13.9% really helps with reducing facial hair growth or just makes the hair look thinner. I've already gone through 4 or 5 laser sessions, but instead of getting better, my facial hair actually seems worse now. I'm using the cream every day, but I'm not sure if it's the right move. Would love some advice on what to do next.

Eflora (eflornithine hydrochloride cream 13.9%) can help reduce facial hair growth and make hairs appear thinner. _How it works_ 1. _Inhibits hair growth_: Eflornithine blocks the enzyme responsible for hair growth, leading to slower and thinner hair. 2. _Reduces hair density_: Regular use can decrease the number of hairs in the treated area. _Tips for using Eflora_ 1. _Apply daily_: Consistency is key for optimal results. 2. _Wait 8 hours_: After applying Eflora, wait at least 8 hours before using other hair removal methods. 3. _Combine with other methods_: Eflora can be used in conjunction with other hair removal methods, like waxing or threading. _Post-Laser Hair Growth_ 1. _Hormonal imbalance_: Laser hair removal can stimulate hormonal changes, leading to increased hair growth. 2. _Consult a professional_: Discuss your concerns with a dermatologist or esthetician to determine the best course of action. Remember that individual results may vary, and it's essential to be patient and consistent when using Eflora.
