Dermatologist Questions Laser Hair Removal

Is a laser treatment for hair removal safe?

I have a lot of hair on both of my upper lip and eyebrows that is thick and dark. It looks extremely ugly, and waxing or threading leaves me with a lot of pain. I am considering a laser hair removal treatment. Is it safe? Are there any side effects I should be aware off?

It is usually very safe, especially if the hair is dark and the skin is light. Many offices do not charge for a consultation.
Yes
Laser hair removal is amazing especially depending on which machines. It’s all about the pre-care and post care of our safety and unloaded the machines are different but most of the Pre and post Care guidelines Are pretty much the same someone who works at the clinic should inform you about this prior to coming in. I do advise that you do you listen to the instructions because you can really hurt someone or hurt yourself if you Do not follow these. As far as pre-care again depending on the system you will be told not to Tan From weeks to days prior. All types of creams on your face at least for a week as well some of them even say no threading. You will also be told that after it you cannot tan in a tanning bed you must wear sunscreen you must wear lotion And of course you don’t restart your other place of products so quickly. Moisturize sunscreen most important things and always if you’re pregnant consult your physician
