I’ve been doing a little bit of research but i haven’t found much info about arm hair removal.

Kristin M. Baird, MD · Answer

Yes, laser hair removal can be performed on arms and can give very nice results. It is important to evaluate the type of hair, color of hair, and skin tone to determine the most appropriate laser for you. The most ideal candidate has lighter skin and dark hair and will see results sooner. Darker skin types require different lasers/settings and will likely need more treatments. Please consult a board certified dermatologist experienced in laser hair removal. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question. Yes, laser hair removal treatment can be done on the arms. Laser hair removal works best on patients with light skin and dark hair. It typically takes 6-9 sessions spaced 4-8 weeks apart to see 70-90% reduction. I recommend having a consultation with an expert technician to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!
