Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
 
It is all normal. They will all fall off, in kids after 9 months to 1 year or so. Those are not permanant hair until you try to shave them off or thread them. Don't do anything to those hair I mean.

Once these hair fall off, she will get her natural complexion.


Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
