I already did my nipples are they burned. Considering the fact that vagina area is dark too is it dangerous to do a laser hair removal with Alexandrite ? If yes what other devices can I use ?

Thank you for your question. Alexandrite laser is a good option as it is safe for individuals with lighter skin tones whereas YAG laser is good for darker skin tones.  Laser Hair removal is a safe treatment if you see an experienced and careful physician. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

Hello, Thank you for your question.  Alexandrite 755nm wavelength is safest used on light skin. Because of the color in your areolas, it is necessary to use a wavelength for darker skin type. The 1064nm (YAG) wavelength can be used for darker skin types without negative effects. If the area of the genitals is darker in pigment color, the 1064nm should be used.  You need to find a facility that has both wavelengths for safest/most effective treatments.Good Luck!
