Antibiotics only work slightly and it comes back so I'm not sure what kind of folliculitis I have. There are no pustules and its only in areas I have shaved before. From what I've researched, I can not afford any therapy other than IPL. I'm sure the folliculitis in my scalp is bacterial so I'm not sure if that relates at all and I have dandruff but I use medicated shampoo. I have coarse dark hair and its pictured with my skin and the bumps won't go away for the treatment unfortunately.
Hello. I'm wanting to get laser done on my bikini area. I have dark, course hair that grows fast. Also now have ingrowns from waxing. For my skin and hair type, what would be the best type of hair removal? Laser ( diode) or IPL? The clinics around me use IPL or one clinic has the diode but they don't have the best reviews. I tried them once for facial hair and worked at first then grew back. Probably from hormones though
I started an ipl+rf home treatment on my face (sideburns and chin) 2 weeks ago. I am 33, I have light skin and some coarse dark hairs on these areas. I have been plucking them for 10 yrs. I hped this was a solution, but I read that it was possible for new follicles to be activated by ipl? This means that the problem could worsen? I did notice a lot of growth in tha last 2 weeks although it might be the usual amount of previously plucked hairs. Please help!
Basically, I have coarse dark hair on several parts of my body that I would like not to remove permanently but make grow finer. One part is the back of my neck. I did some research and found that IPL is less intense in a way than lasers; if I use IPL in a low or medium setting and with only 1 or 2 sessions, will I achieve finer hair without completely removing the hair?
I have done my IPL treatment on face a week ago but i find the growth to be more course than usual. Also i cant see any hair falling off from my face. I am not sure if the treatment really worked on me. I am of skin type 3 and have very dark hair.
