Im seriously considering getting laser hair removal as ive been struggling with excessive hair growth & ingrown hairs for years & i just wanted to know if the ingrown hairs are removed before the laser treatment. The hairs on my stomach, underneath my belly button grow sideways underneath the skin; as you can see them directly under the skin as if theyre laying down. They dont usually curl under the skin, they just never make it to the top. Would these hairs be dug out before treatment?
I feel like if I do laser on my tummy, since my uterus is there, wouldnt that cause some issues or complications if I were to get pregnant later on? Because I've heard of the risks of cancer that are associated with laser hair removal. Is that true?
What will be good options for laser hair removal? I have medium skin, dark hair. Going to see a derm tomorrow. They offer Venus Versa for laser hair treatment. Is this a good option? What are typical costs? Is there a difference between using a cert technician and a derm MD? I want to make sure I am doing the right thing because I am saving up for this and can't afford going back to other options. Also, is it possible to not shave certain regions? Uncomfortable shaving areas stomach, brazil, and arms. What are typical costs for stomach, brazil, armpits, arms, full legs?
Hello, I'm having laser on my arms, legs, bikini, under arms and stomach line, Ive completed 4 sessions so far, I want to know what is the best time to wait between sessions, (my technician is increasing the duration by two weeks every time, and Im not sure if its the right thing to do) thank you very much
I got laser hair removal a month ago and little by little this spots started appearing. I am concerned because the have not gone away. Do you know what they could be? How may I get rid of them the quickest way? I haven't been in the sun.
I had laser hair removal on my stomach. The first day there was some swelling but by the third day I had these red bumps with puss that have gotten worse. The hairs are not ingrown but the reaction seems to be similar. The area is sensitive and has a slight burning sensation. Will this cause scarring? It looks terrible.
Hello, For the past several years I have been experiencing ingrown hairs on my stomach. Most of the hairs on my stomach are not thick, however, any thick hairs that do come in are automatically ingrown. At any time, I have anout 6 ingrown hairs on my stomach. I also have minor scarring/ discoloration from picking at the hairs. Any attempt I make to avoid ingrowns does not work. Could a dermatologist help me? Unfortunately laser hair removal is out of my price range. Thank you.
Its been 4 weeks since treatment. At first the areas treated on my stomach were red, some faded but then there are several trip marks from where she zapped me that have darkened to a brown color. I am wondering will this be permanent or will it fade away? How long does it usually take to fade away completely? Gentlease laser was used on me. I had to shave my whole stomach but I am worried that if I stop treatment, my stomach hair will darken or appear thicker.
I had laser hair removal treatment 1.5 year ago and i had second degreee burn!I am attaching pictures of my belly after few days after treatment and 1.5 year after the treatment. I have used glycolic acid, vitamin C to bleach it and get rid of it, unfortunately it didnt work, I found out i can use Retin A and hydroquinone together in order to get rid of the hyperpigmentation, but how often and when do i need to apply it? Is it ever going to go away i am a bit worried as it has been 1.5 year!!
