Any side effects of doing laser hair removal while taking Zoloft 50mg?

Although some medications can make the skin more sensitive to laser treatments, Zoloft is not one of them.  I’ve treated many patients on high doses of SSRI antidepressants without any ill effects whatsoever.  Having said that, it’s always a good idea let your doctor know of any new medications.

Hello, and thank you for your question. It is important to discuss any medications that you’re currently taking with your doctor and laser technician before going ahead with laser hair removal. That said, ZOLOFT® should not keep you from getting this treatment for any reason. If you have any specific medical concerns at any point throughout the process, please don’t hesitate to talk to your doctor or laser technician.

You can have laser hair removal treatments while taking Zoloft. Keep in mind it will take a series of treatments to get improvement. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

It's fine to take Zoloft during laser hair removal. While some medications can make the skin more sensitive to heat and light, Zoloft is not one of them. Please be sure to let your provider know of any changes to your health or medications.

Zoloft will not increase your skin sensitivity to heat and light and therefore it will not make your skin more prone to side effects associated with laser hair removal. Anyhow, inform your provider about any medications you are taking. Good luck!

Yes it is safe to continue with laser hair removal if you are on Zoloft. There are many medications that make you more sensitive to the laser/sun but Zoloft is not one of them.  Always discuss with your provider if there is any change in your medication/health as this may have an impact on the outcome of your procedure.
