Avatar f tn Is it a good idea to get laser vein removal done to my upper eyelids to remove dilated blood vessels?
Avatar n tn Hello, There are 5 types of laser hair removal systems. These include pulsed light, Nd YAG laser, diode laser. Alexanderite laser and ruby laser. This depends on the skin type and varies from patient to patient. I suggest you to get an evaluation done from a dermatologist for the skin type and then depending on that, laser hair removal can be decided.
Avatar f tn Hello, Laser hair removal is not 100% fullproof and some miniature hair may be left even after multiple laser hair removal sessions. Also it is not without side effects and may cause redness, erythema, hyper or hypopigmentation and sometimes burning and dryness of skin. So discuss all the pros and cons with a dermatologist before getting it done.
Avatar n tn Hi, Needless to remind you that you need to talk to your doctor, a cardiologist.If the varicose vein is in the legs, I understand that laser treatment is possible. Please google for ' laser treatment for varicose veins ' for more details.
Avatar n tn I suspect you may have diabetic related bleeding or perhaps a branch or central retinal vein occlusion - just guessing. The laser is fairly easily performed and generally safe and without it you coulf face much worse loss of vision. Make sure you are seeing a retinal specialist ophthalmologist.

652407 tn?1300737199 Hello, I am not very sure of the efficacy and the related side effects of these tattoo removal creams but laser removal although expensive has been found to be the best treatment for tattoo removal. Another technique is Intense Pulsed Light Therapy. It is dermal enhancer in which instead of laser light, it uses high intensity light. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.

Avatar m tn Hello, Laser hair removal is for permanent removal of hair.It needs multiple sessions. Laser hair reduction works by targeting the hair follicle through the melanin in the hair. Melanin absorbs laser energy and transfers it down to the hair follicles, rendering them ineffective, thus stopping future hair growth. It is effective for all skin types and the most commonly noticed side effects are slight reddening and local swelling of the skin, similar to sunburn.
Avatar m tn If they are a cosmetic disfigurement then you can get shaving or laser hair removal done. Laser hair removal is not without side effects and hence the pros and cons should be discussed in details with a cosmetologist. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps.
Avatar f tn Beautician thinks the lamictal in my system might cause bad side effects such as blistering. Has anyone had experiences with this hair removal treatment whilst taking this med?
Avatar f tn If you are a woman who has excess androgens, there are medications that can help stop the growth by correcting the hormonal excess. There probably are side effects but if they are usually minor for most people (if they weren't the drugs wouldn't be on the market). I don't think there is anything to make hair grow shorter permanently. If you are a man, and you have an excess of androgens, there are probably medications to bring your levels to normal level.
Avatar m tn Itchy bumps, pink skin, redness, and swelling around the treatment area or swelling of the follicles leading to follicular edema are few of the common side effects of E light hair removal. These side effects usually last for two or three days .You may try icing the area after the treatment as it helps relieve the side effects faster. Since exposure to sun can further worsen the rash it is best to seek the opinion of a dermatologist. I do hope it helps. Take care and regards!
Avatar m tn Hello, There are many procedures of mole removal like by shave or deep elliptical excision, excision with cauterization (a tool is used to burn away the mole) and laser removal. Your dermatologist may choose excision with or without stitches, depending on the depth of the mole and the type of cosmetic outcome desired. Laser removal has less chances of leaving scars but it is also not without side effects. Discuss the details of these procedures with your dermatologist.
Avatar f tn My husband had laser hair removal about two weeks ago to his beard. He developed folliculitis. The folliculitis is now cleared up and the hair on his beard is very patchy. The skin under the hair seems to be lighter than the skin that has no hair. Is this b/c the skin without hair is still healing and will blend in eventually or is it going to stay this way. Also, this was the first treatment. Will hair grow back in these spots that have no hair.

Avatar n tn I have a quite a deep blue vein on left side of my mouth and it is very hard to cover up. I am sure that the usual treatment I have for thread veins which is very effective cannot be used for this. Like I said it is quite deep. Are there any treatments as I really hate it!
Avatar n tn 3 weeks after laser surgery I still have loads of floaters in left eye, with a haze. Are these normal side effects of laser surgery ? And will they go away? It is disturbing my vision.
1178131 tn?1282654819 I do laser hair removal. They still do the treatments while you are TTC but once you find out you are pregnant they put the treatments on hold for you....I'm not sure if it effects TTC or not...and I'm not sure the prices of other procedures. I like laser but it only works on dark hair because it zaps pigment....And I don't know how much lip costs because I got mine free with purchase of underarms..... I wasn't very much help was I .....
Avatar f tn Hello, I can understand your concern for the procedures of treatment. These medicines are not without side effects and hence should be used only after a dermatologist’s prescription. Before going in for laser treatment, we can try chemical peeling also. For that you need to consult a good dermatologist/ cosmetologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
2206935 tn?1373638605 I've been dealing with this for nearly a year now...tried the aldera (no improvement), Dr. removed w/acid procedure (some improvement), had laser surgery (worked well, but came back), I've had repeat trips to the Dr. for removal w/acid treatment...So far breakouts have been less severe (meaning # of warts) and the time in between breakouts is getting longer With that said I would not recommend aldera or laser surgery...
Avatar f tn The reasoning is because there are no studies done to show the effects laser hair removal has on the baby. Since there are no studies, we don't know if it is okay or not so most companies (ones that care about your well being) would refuse treatments.
