I am a man, early 30's, and I have hair on my shoulder blades and shoulders, can I use laser/IPL to remove the hair? (Photos)

Hello, I've been having this problem since my late teens. I wax it every now and then, but waxing causes me to break out. I was told this area is problematic for laser/IPL back when I was 23 because it might cause the hair to grow darker and thicker. I want to get rid of it. What options do I have? Thank you.
