I have light to meduim skin and have hyperpigmentation spots on my upper lip. Some are from mild melasma after pregnancy while others are from constant plucking and waxing. Decided to have laser hair removal I have coarse dark hairs that grow and my constant plucking and waxing is making hyperpigmentation worse. Had my first treatment 4 days ago and the spots are darker. Can they prescribe creams for the hyperpigmentation in between laser hair removal treatment? Thank you for your responses in advance

I waxed my upper lip and sat in the sun so it created a dark area on my upper lip. Im currently doing laser hair removal and the technician told me that it would help remove the dark area but Im not too sure and worried that it would make it worse. Thanks!
I just finished my 5th treatment of laser hair removal for upper lip, arm pits, and Brazilian. Ive never been red after treatment or irritated. Right now, its grown back like Ive never even had one treatment. The first treatment was an old laser and the hair fell out. After that, I didnt notice hair fall out. But it grew back in patches a couple months. How do I know this is working? How do I know that I just didnt waste money and this is not working? Is this normal for it to all be back?!
I'm a skin 3 type woman with PCOS. I've done 4 sessions of the Alexandrite laser to my sideburns and upper lips. I'm seeing a lot of improvement in the treated area, however the vellus hairs of the periphery such as the jaw area are now more noticeable and long. Is this what we called Paradoxical hair growth? And what should I do in this case to prevent the regrowth of the hair?
Hello, I had my 3rd laser hair removal 6 days ago on my upper lip and full brazilian area. I noticed that it was more painful than usual and swollen when I got home so I put some ointment and the technician put some cortizone. 2 days after my treatment , my belly bottom area, entire bikini area, upper lip and the sides turned black and I see some scar, also in the inner buttcheeks. I have been putting cocoa butter, ointment and a discoloration cream. What should I do? Pictures are attached!
