razor burn?

Question

For about a year i have had these red dots all over my legs...no bumps just dots. It is very unattractive. I have been shaving my legs fora bout 3 years now.....could it be razor burn? any idea how to get rid of it?

It doesn't itch or burn.

Answer 1

use a lotion bec i used to get the bumps also after i shaved and it was only when i used an aloe shaving cream or lotion and i figured out it was from the aloe and i havent had the bumps since if u r using an aloe cream or what not stop using it and see if that helps

Answer 2

I've got the same problem hun. Is it itchy and does it burn? Cuz that's definately razor burn. Try an unscented shaving cream, or use a high quality razor and when you shave move the razor slowly and rinse the blade frequently. If that doesn't work, then try using a bladless razor type thing by nair.

Good luck

Answer 3

it could be ingrown hairs stop shaving your legs and let the hair grow out a little and use a antibiotic on the spots then when you start back shaving use a new razor and try Alveno shaving cream for sensitive skin and shave in the direction that the hair is growing IE shave going down your leg not up it and that should help. one more thing change your razor out once every three weeks or less.

I would really recommend seeing a Dermatologist. It sounds to me like this could be more than sensitive skin. It doesn't sound like anything extremely serious.
There are ways to get rid of those red bumps; you should moisturize ALOT.
Maybe you should try a different razor. The best one I've found that is very gentle on the skin is the Intuition...
