Re: Laser Hair Removal - What to know
I only know basic stuff. There are all sorts of lasers used for scar treatment. The hair removal lasers can also be used for scars but at different settings, then there are also lots of other kinds of laser and ipl systems that are also used. So, I don’t know which are the best but I’m pretty sure it will depend on the type of scars to be treated. What sort of scarring do you have?
You DO need to be careful though because any laser can induce hair growth on the face. I have heard of a number of cases where women had laser treatments for acne scars and ended up with more hair instead. To be honest, if you have active acne then you need to try and resolve it at its cause. Often it’s just matter of time and it will clear up on its own. If your acne has stopped but you have a lot of scars, they WILL fade over time even if you don’t do anything. Probably the best thing for speeding up this process would be chemical peels.
If you have ‘pitted’/‘icepick’ acne scars, then no laser, peels or microdermabrasion will fix these. There are some techniques I have read about but they aren’t widespread yet. I think we will need to wait a few more years and if they work, they will become more prolific. Just like when I started researching laser 10 years ago, there was hardly anyone treating black or asian skin.
