Let us set the record straight, most products marketed as “at home laser hair removal” are not lasers. The most common devices use intense pulsed light (IPL) for temporary hair reduction. The clinical literature is murky as these devices don’t have FDA approval, but most experts point to these devices providing no more than a ~50% temporary reduction. Further, these come with a much higher level of risk than lasers. If you have a darker skin tone, absolutely do not use any of the at home “laser hair removal” solutions.
