Steroid cream use and laser hair removal? Will this cause side effects?

March 20, 2018
Asked By:Jessie2017 in Westchester, NY

I sparingly use the steroid cream Clobetasol Propionate for an itchy rash that occasionally pops up on my ankle (it was never diagnosed as anything). I use the cream probably once every 2 weeks, sometimes more or less. Will this cause side effects with laser hair removal on my ankle? I am obviously telling the technician, but even if she says yes, it will give me piece of mind hearing the opinions of PS. Thank you for your help!!
