Is laser hair removal really safe?
Until recently, laser hair removal was believed the only way to get rid of unwanted hair forever. Unfortunately, this myth has been dispelled both by numerous studies and by the clients themselves. New hair starts growing in a few years but it is not the main reason to abandon the laser. Much more important is the effect that it causes on our health.
There are local and systemic complications from laser hair removal. Such local skin lesions as burns and scars are the least problems after laser procedures. Much more serious harm is malignant degeneration of benign moles or exacerbation of herpes viral infection.
