I am a 24yr old female with chin hair, which depresses me a lot. I was using the hair removal creames for yrs now n recently i went to get it tweezered out which seems to last longer than the creams. here is 2 pix how long do u think something like this will take and will the bumps go away. the pic should be

I am unable to view your pics and think perhaps others can’t either. I shall keep trying.

It is really difficult to see how much hair is there, because your skin is so irritated from the tweezing. Have you tweezed for a long time? The bumps will go and your skin will recover from the trauma completely, but I would urge you to stop tweezing and have some consulations for electrolysi ASAP. If you say where you are located, other members may have referrals for you. Consultations are usually cost and obligation free.
I agree with Christine.
Immediately cease any system of hair pulling. Use for a while disposal systems that cover only the hair on the skin surface. A good professional will remove hairs that are trapped under the skin.
I think that your case is more appropriate to use the Blend System.
Sounds like you have a tendency to develop keloids.
I would advise you to wait 6 or 8 weeks to begin the Electrolysis. While waiting you can shave the hair.
This will address these roots curved safest way for your skin
quite battered. Fortunately there seems to be no irreversible damage.
In my opinion, this case is not for beginners with no experience.
It is not because there is high density, but by the difficulty of curved roots. I’ve never worked on this type of hair, but would give a year of my life to do so.
Well I am going to see an electrolgist today so I will see what she tells me.
I agree, this case is for a pro with some experience. If they have not done this type of work before, blend and galvanic would be the best way to go. Synchro would be the fastest way to do good treatments on this, but the important thing is you get started, and hit it as long and hard as you can to get to first clearance. It may take more than 6 weeks to clear you out based on your ability to get treatment time in. The important thing is that you know it will be hard going in the beginning, but it will lessen very soon.
i hope so because this is very depressing. I keep hearing it is a long process, I guess I am ok with that but i just want to at least see some results in a decent amount of time.
Long process means what? Is 9-18 months too long to obtain permanent hair removal? I see a lot of challenging cases very similar to yours and I know that James does as well. It all comes to a nice end as long as the you are goal oriented. Get the area cleared asap and stay true to a schedule. You must find a good electrologist. That is the hard part. If I were doing this for you, I would start out with a thermlysis mode called MultiPlex on the Apilus Platinum or I might use one of the AP’s Blend modes. I have never seen keloiding caused by electrolysis that I have done. Never. As the hairs come in straighter, I would be doing PicoFlash thermolysis. All works very well. From what I can see, a full first clearance would take 3-5 hours? You can break this up over a month or go for it all at once IIIIIFFFFFF you find a good electrologist with a high tech epilator that they know how to use well. It may take longer with another set up, but you will still get permanent hair removal. You must get rid of the hair, the irritant to your skin, so the skin can heal nicely. Electrolysis is your ticket, but the person treating you has got to be experienced and you have got to keep your appointments.
Dee, I did not say that the Electrolysis can produce keloids (I did not see it either).
I said that the skin of Sincere, risk appears to produce such alterations in wound healing.
It is clear that the injuries caused by pulling out the hair with tweezers is affecting the structure of her skin.
As I said, unfortunately I have no experience in dealing with curly hair and black skin.
But it is only logical to assume that overtreatment of an inexperienced professional, would leave white scars in that beautiful black skin.
None of us want that for Sincere.

Ah, but it can happen. It’s very rare and is most likely the result of an untrained, over zealous, do-it-yourselfer type trying to remove their own hair.
I hope you have the opportunity someday, Josefa, to work on a client such as the poster sincere. It’s rewarding work and it’s so great to see the client’s personality change from hopelessness to happiness!
Dee
Your photo indicates a great example for a good Yag laser treatment. You’ll feel like a new person after just 3 treatments or so already. It will get rid of all that irritation and ingrowns.
I hope one day my wish come true.
Thank you very much for your good wishes, dear Dee. 
Sincere would be a lucky girl if she live in Malaga, and could have treatment with you, Josefa.!! It is really important that she finds someone very competent,as we all agree that her hair type is challenging, and her skin sensitive from the trauma. Please keep us briefed, Sincere and hope your consultation goes well. ,
Christine Oh yeah, you’re not wrong.
A challenge like Sincere, is my unfinished business.
How I would help her return to her baby skin.
