Hello, I have a history of cancer in my family both sides like (ovary, breasts, lungs, stomach, liver) my dad had a bazocelular carcinoma) even I have SOP and thyroid and I want to buy a IPL hair removal device. I want to know based on my family history if is a risk to develop skin cancer using IPL. It is 100% sure? My skin is white and I have many moles.
ive had sessions of ipl laser hair removal on the neck. i really just want it for some coarse hair on the upper neck but the technician always treats the entire neck, including below the adams apple/ thyroid area. was just wondering if this can have an effect on the thyroid (nodules/ cancer)?
