You might want to start with Nioxin products, and then if no luck move on to minoxodil (Rogaine).  There is also a drug that inhibits Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) called Propecia.  DHT is the main reason people go bald.

Please see a dermatologist. There are prescription anti-perspirants that are very successful such as aluminum tetrachloride (Xerac). \n\nThere is also a treatment aluminum chloride hexahydrate (Drysol). You receive two or three treatments a week for a few weeks and then only need once a week after that.\n\nAnother new treatment uses electric current to block the action of the sweat glands. It is used daily for a week and then your sweating will be relieved for a month.

Male pattern baldness, also known by its uglier and scarier clinical name androgenetic alopecia , is caused by some really funky chemistry on your scalp. It starts with testosterone, the male sex hormone. Harmless on its own, testosterone gets converted to the dicey dihydrotestosterone (DHT) when in contact with oil glands in the hair follicles. These glands hold the enzyme Type II 5-alpha reductase.  DHT, in turn, gets in your scalp follicles and shrinks them. At the same time, it makes the protective membrane of the scalp thicken, restricting blood flow to the capillaries. This makes further hair growth impossible. The hairs fall out at a natural rate, but aren't replaced. And that's it in a nutshell. \n\nPRODUCTS:\nFinasteride (Propecia)\nFinasteride, produced by Merck and Company under the name Propecia, was approved by the FDA in December 1997, as a treatment for male pattern baldness. It is the first drug available in pill form for the treatment of baldness.\nIn men with mild to moderate hair loss, clinical trials showed that 83 percent of the male patients had kept their hair or grown more after one year of treatment. Propecia (finasteride) works by blocking an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase, which is responsible for the formation of dihydro-testosterone in a man's body. The enzyme converts testosterone to DHT (dihydrotestosterone). It is believed that DHT is a key factor in male pattern hair loss, and finasteride decreases the concentration of DHT in a man's scalp by about two-thirds.\n\nminoxidil (Rogaine):\nMinoxidil, a drug produced by Upjohn under the name of Rogaine, has been available since 1988 for the treatment of hair loss. It is currently available as an over-the-counter drug. \nMinoxidil is topical solution that must be applied by applicator or fingers to the balding area twice a day, every day. Decreasing the dosage to once a day results in some hair loss, and discontinuing application causes regression to pretreatment baldness within 3 to 6 weeks. It can take 4 to 12 months to see results.\nAccording to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), clinical studies show that 26 percent of men between 18 and 49 reported moderate to dense hair regrowth after four months of Rogaine treatment. An additional 33 percent had minimal hair regrowth. Almost 20 percent of women between 18 and 45 had moderate regrowth, while an additional 40 percent showed minimal regrowth.\n\n\nSurgical hair replacement:\nWhen experiencing thinning hair or baldness, men (and some women) consider hair transplantation, a permanent form of hair replacement. Anyone who has permanent hair loss may be a candidate for hair transplantation, including:\nmen with male pattern baldness \nsome women with thinning hair \npersons who have lost hair as a result of burns or other scarring injuries to the scalp, eyebrows, or eyelashes.\n\nTypes of hair replacement surgery:\nThere are a number of techniques used in hair replacement surgery. Sometimes two or more techniques are used to achieve the best results.\npunch grafts - usually contain about 10-15 hairs \nmini-grafts - contain about 2 to 4 hairs \nmicro-grafts - contain 1 to 2 hairs \nslit grafts - contain about 4 to10 hairs each \nstrip grafts - contain 30-40 hairs\n\n\nGood luck!

also try "ingrow go" by Skindoctors--it removes ingrown hair from all parts of the body.

Propecia is very effective.  Also try minoxydil for women.  Between the two, you can dramatically slow your hair loss.  (unless you have a more serious health problem)

It has been suggested that Saw Palmetto may block some effects of testosterone and therefore reduce male pattern hair loss, similar to the medication finasteride (Propecia®). So far there is not enough scientific evidence to support the claim. \n\nFor alternative natural treatments, massage and aromatherapy have been used with some success. In minor cases of temporary hair loss, hair growth can be stimulated by massage, since blood and oxygen flow to the scalp must be healthy in order for hair to grow.

Go to a salon and get it done professionally -- a Brazilian wax I believe it is called.  Or for more permanent effect go to one of the laser places that removes hair permanently.

Use Certain Dri.  It used to be by prescription only but it's available at pretty much any target, walmart, drug store, etc. for about $6.  I believe it works for about 24 hours and it pretty much stops the underarm sweating.  DO NOT use it just after you've shaved.  Give it about 24 hours and use it then.  I used this on my wedding day.  I wore a white strapless gown in 96 degree weather and stayed dry the whole time.

I had a friend who had it done on her underarms.  It works for a time but it eventually grows back on most people within like 3 years.  As for your chin have you asked a dermatologist?  Maybe there's another treatment to actually remove the hair follicles since they're giving so much trouble.

Unfortunately, yes.  In me it surfaced on my face around puberty (13 or so) and I still have to use medication daily.  It runs in my family (younger cousin, both grandmothers, and aunt) and I haven't seen it subside in anyone.

Very carefully, LOL.  Or you could try NADS hair removal mousse for men..

Have you asked your doctor about Vaniqua? sp\nIt is a prescription facial cream that slows down the growth of unwanted hair, until it does not grow back.

This product is available in the UK and online...\n\nKalo Hair Growth Inhibitor is a breakthrough hair retardant formula which inhibits unwanted hair re-growth.\n\nDo many MEN also use Kalo?\nIf you're a man, you probably have to shave once, possibly even twice a day. With Kalo, the frequency of shaving can be significantly reduced and your beard growth will become noticeably softer and much easier to shave. If you have sensitive skin and find shaving leaves your skin feeling sore and irritated then Kalo will help make this condition more tolerable by making your beard growth softer and easier to remove. \n\nHow Kalo Works:\nKalo's effectiveness relies on first physically removing the unwanted hair usually accomplished by waxing, sugaring, tweezing or shaving). Kalo is then applied to reduce the hair growth.\n\nEvery time you wax and use Kalo, you can expect that 10 to 15% of the hair will never grow back. This is because, at any given time, 10 to 15% on a person's body are in the anagen, or initial growth stage - the hair best affected by Kalo. The 85-90 per cent of the hair that does grow back will be weaker, finer, and have less color.\n\nAfter only a few hair removal sessions, the results will be evident, with up to 50 per cent of the hair gone within six months. The advantages of Kalo are obvious. Traditional hair removal methods can be painful, costly, damaging to skin. Kalo safely and effectively inhibits unwanted body and facial hair from growing back. Kalo is gentle, painless & completely safe.

Laser removal is expensive and not always effective. I have found the most "relief" from being threaded (when the hair is removed using two pieces of twisted string to yank out the hair.) and using Vaniqa twice a day. You have to get it from your dermitologist. I prefer using it after threading, but you can use it after any hair removal process. It slows down the growth process.

Hair removal on a man's face is one of the most difficult areas to treat because the hair is so coarse and the follicle lies very deep.   I have been told that you can expect to need 8-10 treatments, whereas on other parts of the body you only need 5-6.   Cost is dependent on the size of the area and can be anywhere between $100 and $500 per treatment for a male face.
