After Laser Hair Removal - Looks Like Scars, Are They Permanent? (photo) I got the Laser hair removal on my legs couple of days back. I still have some bumps on my legs, and they look like scars and blisters now. Am I at a risk of having them permanently? If not, what can i do to make them heal. Any response at the earliest would be helpful, i am so worried!!!

A: Please see your dermatologist

It looks like you have bruising more than anything...perhaps the pulse width on the laser setting was too short. I agree completely with everything Dr. Calkin said.

Are There Any Problems with Laser Hair Removal While Breastfeeding? Are There Any Problems with Laser Hair Removal While Breastfeeding?

A: laser hair removal safe while breastfeeding but....

Agree with the other docs answers that there is no harm from laser hair removal while breastfeeding except for possible increase in hyperpigmentation but i would be careful not to use a topical anesthetic as there is absorption (although low) into your bloodstream. There are studies which show that breastfeeding women given lidocaine intravenously have excretion into breast milk but I did not see any studies about topical anesthetics. The amount the baby would absorb would be minimal but there is a potential for allergic reactions.

Best Hair Removal Laser for a Latin Girl? I want to start a laser hair removal treatment. But I am not sure which is the best laser for me. My hair is dark and my background is latin. My skin is kind of similar to Penelope Cruz. I read the YAG-ND is good for dark skin, but is not that effective. I added my pic. Thanks.

A: Nd:YAG laser for hair removal in darker skin types

Agree with the other docs. 1064 Nd:YAG is the safest device for darker skin types. Efficacy is similar to other types of lasers. There are a number of good Nd:YAG lasers from different manufacturers. As always - try to find an experienced office to avoid complications.

	“Looking Good So Far - Coral Springs, FL” I have completed the first of 5 sessions and I'm going for my second session next week and a have A LOT of hair which appears to be gone. The procedure is somewhat painful, specially in the bikini area, but the thought of not having to shave again fills you up with strength. I am getting my underarms, lower legs and Brazilian bikini areas done. I am planning on adding the thighs and... more
	“First Laser Hair Removal Treatment ...” It has been a week since my first treatment with the alexandrite laser. The doctor told me that the hair would die and fall out naturally within 2 weeks. All the hair is ingrown in my legs and bikini and is not naturally falling out like i was expecting. It was kind of falling out in my underarms but not anymore. I am scheduled to come in about every 4-8 weeks for 10 sessions total. The... more
	“White Scars from Laser Burn - Fort...” Laser hair removal. My first few treatments were amazing. Loved the results, left me smooth and almost hairless. My last treatment however was very painful and burnt my leg leaving me with white circular scars all over looking like fish scales. I had laser hair removal and it left white circular scars (the shape of the laser head) all over my leg. Looks like fish scales. The laser burnt my... more
	“Nothing Like a Smooth Bikini and...” I paid $1500 for full bikini and underarms (6 treatments). I've only been through one treatment so far, and I'm already impressed. A week later, my hair was just falling out. I know this is just the beginning - and I'm lucky, because I have lighter skin and dark hair (which I was told is the easiest to work on). I went there because a friend recommended it -she got her full body done and... more

The procedure not only provided excellent results but was also worth every penny ( which actually was not alot because i got a great deal!). I underwent the procedure to remove my facial, underarms and bikini line hair in 2005. The entire cost come out to somewhere between $1500 and $ 2000. Although the process was slightly painful and... more
