Hi,
You have not mentioned the site from where hairy substance is produced. I think there may be black comedones from where the black sticky material may be produced. For the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment, you consult the dermatologist.
Retinoids acid gel 0.012% may be applied on the affected areas.
And cleanse the area with face wash containing salicylic acid.
I hope this would help you.
Thanks.
