What Are Home Remedies for Ingrown Hair Removal? Treatment options for ingrown hairs that can be attempted at home include washing and gently scrubbing the area of the ingrown hair with a moist warm washcloth or an exfoliating scrub.
Gentle washing and exfoliating around the ingrown hair may help the hair return to the surface of the skin. If that doesnât work, your doctor might prescribe a drug that can help dead skin cells slough off more quickly. Retinoids, such as tretinoin (Renova, Retin-A), can speed up the clearing of dead skin cells.
