| | In addition to congenital hypertrichosis lanuginosa where hair develops all over the body, there are other case reports of individuals with hypertrichosis lanuginosa limited only to the face with the torso, arms, and legs being mostly unaffected. | | | This is not the same as congenital hypertrichosis lanuginosa and there is a separate page describing this condition. | | | This condition involves all over body hair growth, but the hair is fully pigmented terminal hair and the condition is almost always associated with gingival hyperplasia (teeth defects). |
