Skin lightening or darkening.
Skin colour usually returns to normal over time. However, some skin colour changes are permanent. This is why it’s essential to visit an aesthetic clinic that specialises in laser treatments and has a thorough understanding of the skin.
It’s also important to follow the clinic’s instructions. Following both the before and after-treatment advice will reduce the risk of side effects.
There is no evidence that laser hair removal can cause skin cancer.
