Hypopigmentation after laser hair removal (Photo)

Question

I had my third Alexandrite laser hair removal session, and three days after that, my legs look like this. I also had it done for my arms, and I can slightly see white spots there too. Are these permanent?

Hello,
Thank you for your question. I would call your provider where you are receiving the Laser hair removal and have them take a closer look at what is going on with your skin. They will know the setting used at the time of treatment and if it is in fact Hypopigmentation.
