Very unlikely. If you consider "cause and effect", having hair on their body is not the cause then logically shaving itself won't help. In cases of severe skin problem, shaving is recommended not so much to heal but the advantage is
the medicated wash gets better contact with the skin, optimising the healing properties of the medicine and you are better able to visually monitor the progress.
