Red spots/hyper-pigmentation in tan areas after laser hair removal. Is there anything I can do to prevent hyperpigmentation?

Every so often, we do see an itchy bumpy rash following laser hair removal. This is usually because of irritation of the hair follicles in the treated area, and this can be easily treated with a mild cortisone preparation. I suggest contacting your Dr. for a topical solution. Best, Dr. Emer

This happens often and can be temporary. You can use hydrocortisone and should avoid the sun. For the next treatment you can consider some of the laser treatments which have a lower risk of hyperpigmentation
