  Pseudofolliculitis barbae is caused by ingrown hairs, usually in the beard, that become inflamed when the hairs penetrate the skin before they leave the hair follicle or after they leave the follicle and curve back into the skin. […] Each ingrown hair results in a tiny, mildly painful pimple with a barely visible hair curling into the center. Scarring can result. […] Doctors diagnose the disorder by its typical appearance. […] Treatment of the pimples involves initial discontinuation of shaving, and the application of warm compresses several times a day to soothe the area. […] If inflammation is present but mild, doctors sometimes give low-potency corticosteroid or antibiotic creams that are applied directly to the inflamed area. […] If inflammation is moderate to severe, doctors may give prescribe antibiotics taken by mouth. […] The best preventive treatment is to stop shaving and allow the hair to grow. When the hairs are longer, they do not curl back and puncture the skin. […] Applying eflornithine cream may help by slowing hair growth so that shaving can be done less frequently.

  Ingrown hairs usually present as tender pustules with a tiny, dark dot near the center. While they sometimes resemble acne, they can grow much larger, become much more painful, and sometimes require specialized tools to eradicate. Once a hair begins to grow back into the skin, the likelihood of an infection developing can increase.

Ingrown hairs can sometimes take months to heal. While hair texture or sub-par shaving tools may increase the risk of getting an ingrown hair, you most likely won’t experience any long-term side effects after it heals.
