A member asked:

I accidentally shaved my forehead and the next day i noticed my forehead was full of small tiny hair s and now im very oily.how can i get rid of it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Coincidence: I suspect that the tiny hairs (they're called "lanugo" hairs) were there before; you're just looking more closely now. Oil production is related to hormone levels and other internal factors. Out of curiosity, now do you *accidentally* shave your forehead?
