sorzziJun 30, 2016
I got a laser hair removal on my legs a few years ago and ever since I got this one spot on my leg which started to grow more hair, got itchy from time to time and got darker skin color. It kinda look like a hairy bruise. What can have cause this and why doesn't it go away?

Yes you can continue taking this medication, there is not contraindication between taking omeprazole and laser hair removal. Please seek an expert for laser treatment. Best, Dr. Emer

I suggest consulting with your physician to have a hormone panel test done, as facial hair in women is commonly a hormonal imbalance. Laser hair removal will improve this area and rid the hair on your chin in a series of treatments. Please consult with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
