Will PicoSure Laser Tattoo Removal Treatment Cause Permanent Hair Loss?

Question

Is it safe to treat tattoos on the arms, legs, and the scalp with the PicoSure laser without causing permanent hair loss in those areas?

Monika Soni, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. It is very unlikely that Picosure will cause permanent hair loss. You may experience temporary hair loss because the follicles were irritated during treatment. I recommend discussing any concerns you may have with your treating physician. Best of Luck!
