Does Lightsheer Work for People with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome?

The Lightsheer diode laser is an excellent choice for permanent hair reduction, regardless of the cause. Those who respond the best to laser hair reduction have:


dark hair

light skin pigment


You should not be tanning both before and after treatment, and be aware that multiple treatments are typically required.

The lightsheer diode laser works very well for hair reduction.  It works by targeting melanin (pigment) in the hair, which is why is only works on dark hairs.  If the skin is pigmented or tanned, the laser will target it, so there is a higher risk of hyperpigmentation in darker skin types.  Having the treatments in a physician's office, avoiding the sun before and after treatments, and having test spots done prior to treatment are good ways to help reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation. 

Yes, it works the same as in other patients. Make sure to get a test area to avoid scarring and hyper-pigmentation.
