Irritation of the skin, causing itching and a burning sensation may occur which settles in 1-2 days. There may be swelling around the hair follicles, blisters or redness in the treated area for 1-2 days post treatment. Rarely, high doses especially in dark colored skin can cause post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. After the treatment, the area of skin that has been treated needs to be protected from sunlight and UV rays. This can be done by applying sunscreen when going outdoors.

- What Are The Points To Remember Before Undergoing This Treatment?

  1. Laser hair removal is a medical procedure which requires training and skill to perform and has probable side-effects. Before deciding on to getting laser hair removal, you must check the credentials of the dermato-surgeon who is going to perform the procedure, carefully.
  2. It is mandatory to evaluate for an underlying hormonal imbalance/Polycystic ovarian disease in cases of hirsutism, as the hormonal abnormality must be corrected to achieve effective hair reduction, and the number of treatments required may increase.
  3. A month before the procedure, you ought to restrict waxing, plucking, and electrolysis. This is because, the laser aims at the roots of the hair, which are temporarily removed by plucking or waxing. Generally, 8-12 sessions are needed for optimum results. However, patients with hormonal imbalance may need long term treatments. Follow up sessions should be done every 3-4 months that will make the results more permanent, at least for some time following completion of advised number of treatments
  4. It must be understood that Laser gives 'permanent hair reduction' and NOT 'complete hair removal'. The hair growth reduces and becomes finer with subsequent sittings. Re-growth is delayed. Hair becomes lighter, thinner and sparser.
  5. Maintenance sessions may be needed after treatment, say 2-3 sessions per year, for 2-3 years to achieve maximum benefit.
  6. White hair cannot be treated.
  7. If the dose and the duration of laser are not appropriate, there can be paradoxical hair growth occurring wherein, thinner but longer hair starts growing in the treated areas.

- What Are The Benefits Of Laser Hair Reduction?

  1. Laser Hair Removal Treatment is non invasive.
  2. Surrounding areas are not damaged.
  3. Laser hair treatment is a relatively fast procedure since many strands of hair can be treated simultaneously.
  4. It is permanent hair reduction and does away with lifelong waxing, threading, epilation etc.
  5. The only treatment beneficial in patients with recurrent pseudofolliculitis barbae especially in the beard area, and pilonidal sinus.
  6. Many of hair removing procedures such as waxing, threading, bleaching etc. are procurable at lower cost, but their cumulative cost over a lifetime is way higher compared to few sessions of laser hair removal which give permanent reduction.
