Laser-assisted hair removal for darkly pigmented skin.

Abstract:

:Effective hair removal is now available even for the darkest-skinned patients, including Fitzpatrick skin type VI. With the long-pulse YAG laser, a deeply penetrating wavelength enables energy to reach the hair bulbs, adequate power and pulse duration heat and destroy the hair follicle, and low melanin absorption ensures less epidermal damage. (Aesthetic Surg J 2003;21:143-144.).
