Yes, you can have laser hair removal. Diode, alexandrite and yag lasers work best for hair removal. I typically have patients do every 4 weeks for the first 3 times and then every 4-6 weeks for 3 times after. It will take a series of treatments. See an expert in laser hair removal for best results. Best, Dr. Emer
The laser energy used during laser hair removal is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle, and won't penetrate deeply enough to reach your leg bone. Just be sure to let your laser technician know about your medical history and you should be fine.
There is no problem with having laser hair removal on your healed bone cancer leg presuming you have the treatment at a reputable medical clinic. The laser penetrates superficially to the hair root, and not deep enough to affect the metal bar or anything else important.
Thank you for your question. Yes, you can have laser hair removal done on your healed leg. Please make sure you seek treatment from a board-certified dermatologist.
Thank you for your question. I am happy to read that your leg has healed. Laser hair removal is perfectly safe after orthopedic surgery on the leg. The laser used for laser hair removal does not penetrate deep enough, only superficial at the hair follicles depth. I hope this help. All the best, Dr. Michon
