Can laser hair removal cause hair to permanently turn white?

This can be typical, but it isn't permanent. Keep in mind, it will take a series of treatments to get improvement with laser hair removal. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

LHR can lighten the color of the hair but not permanently. It may take the color out of the exposed hair but it will grow back normal color if it is not lost. I wouldn't worry about this. On the face, sometimes doing laser peels, the hair will turn a blonde color and most people like that better than darker hairs.
