Burnt stubble won’t shed after laser hair removal. Is this normal?

Three weeks post LHR and I have burnt stubble that won’t eject from my skin. It’s everywhere... is this normal? Will the skin push it out?

You can absolutely take cetirizine while undergoing laser hair removal. It is an antihistamine which does not make your skin more sensitive to the sun. If you should have any itching or sensitivity after the treatments, it might actually help!

Hello asking1. In your case I would agree that the Alex laser would be the best bet for your skin type.  At Monroe Comprehensive Laser Center in Monroe, Mi, we use the Gentlemax pro, known for comfort and efficacy.  Most people would require 6 or so monthly to every 6 weeks treatments...

Thank you for your question.  You may continue with your laser hair removal treatment while being on Prednisone.  All the best!
