Damaged hair follicles after Cutera laser pigment removal

August 24, 2021
Asked By:John_M in Jyväskylä, Suomi

A year and half ago I had three times Cutera laser for my forehead hyperpigmentation. Last threathment caused my tempus hair burn both sides of face. Some of the hair came back quite fast but most of them is still missing and the missing area is almost bald or with baby hair. Question 1) Is it still possible the hair will come back with time or is it most likely the most of the hair follicle was destroyed 2)Is it worth of and safe to try to activate follicles with Laser devices like Hairmax?
