Description:
In the case of this compulsive patient the urge to remove deeply ingrown hairs from his skin has become pathological. He precisely determines the manner of removal, perfecting the technique: the tweezers must be placed close to the root of the hair, then with one emphatic gesture, the hair is removed. His skin may become so sensitive and inflamed that the procedure of removing his hair one follicle at a time must be given up for a time. During these "hair-plucking breaks" shaving is temporarily allowed. (Evelin Páll)
