New : New onset hair growth on the face can be a sign of a hormonal imbalance, medication reaction, a sign of porphyria cutanea tarda, and rarely, a sign of hidden malignancy. After a physical exam by a dermatologist to determine what kind of hair is forming, appropriate blood tests can be done. Treatment for the excessive hair, and dry skin, would be based on the results of the examination, and blood tests.
