Removing peach fuzz after chemo

I'm 3 months in remission following 6 months of chemo for lymphoma. My hair has all grown back and I now have quite a lot of baby hair/peach fuzz on my cheeks where I didn't before. Will this ever go away on its own? If I remove it, will it grown back thicker? I'd love to hear from anyone who's been through this and has any tips!

I had this too, I wasn't aware of it then caught myself in a mirror in sunshine.
I bought a cheap "no-no" type shaver on Amazon and went over my whole face. I only did it once and it hasn't ever grown back.

That's good to know! I can't decide whether to shave it out of worry it would grow back thicker. And I wonder if I just leave it it will just fall out?

Get a derma plane razor thing-works a treat on peach fuzz and it shouldn't grow back

Yes it should disappear in a few weeks.
