How Soon After Tummy Tuck Can I Have Laser Hair Removal Near the Scar?

As long as the scar is healed you can do the laser hair removal.The hair removal laser won’t change the appearance of the scar, it will only destroy the hair. It may take about 6 treatments for the best results, but you should see a nice reduction since the hair on that area is dark and thick and responds very quickly. If you are looking to lighten the scar once the hair is removed you can try Fraxel laser or IPL for the pigment.

When the scar is healed, usually at 4-6 months.  The scar will be fully healed at about a year, but you can treat the hair sooner.
