Hello Doctor i would like to know the facts of what will be the result of laser hair removal on skin type 4 men while reducing the arm's hair and what are the laser machine which has the most effective result and what will be the result while using the E-light IPL hair removal machine. And what can be done if the treatment doesn't work and if you have the reverse effects, like more hair growth and hair that becomes longer than before.

After IPL treatment for hair reduction, it is normal to have redness around the hair follicles. Taking an OTC histamine, such as Claritin, can help decrease the itching. It is always best to report any reactions to your provider, so they can evaluate in more detail in person.
I agree with both responses. IPL treatment on lighter skin has fewer complications as long as proper settings and techniques were used. Most IPL devices selectively target brown and red which makes it more risky for darker skin types.
Yes, IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) laser treatments are very safe and effective for treating patients with thin skin. IPL is a gentle treatment that is non-ablative and much less aggressive than other laser treatments.
