Can i take ciprofloxacin and do hair laser removal?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Yes, you can take ciprofloxacin while taking laser hair removal. Limit sun exposure both before and after treatment. Sun protection is essential. Keep in mind, it will take a series of treatments. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Yes, you can get SculpSure treatments while taking Ciprofloxacin. If you are concerned about photosensitivity with the medication, there is no contraindication to its use with SculpSure.

You can be on ciprofloxacin which is an antibiotic and still have laser hair removal.  The conflicting issue would be if the infection is within the treatment zone.  If that is the case, then laser hair removal would not be recommended until the area heals.
