It’s generally not recommended due to limited safety data and increased skin sensitivity during pregnancy. Defer treatment and consult a qualified clinician.
Laser hair removal is not recommended during pregnancy due to a lack of adequate studies on its safety. Hormonal changes may make the skin more sensitive, increasing the risk of irritation or burning, or may be ineffective.
Laser light itself does not transmit infections. However, poor hygiene or inadequate disinfection can lead to cross-contamination. Proper cleaning protocols and single-use or sterilizable accessories are essential.
Licensed devices that meet recognized safety and efficacy standards reduce the risk of complications and deliver more consistent results. Unauthorized devices may be unsafe, ineffective, or difficult to service.
Avoid sunbathing, tanning beds, and waxing for 3–4 weeks prior.
Shave the treatment area 24 hours beforehand (unless advised otherwise).
Avoid exfoliating creams/retinoids and other irritants for several days prior. Ensure skin is clean and free of makeup, lotions, or deodorant.
Inform your provider about medications (e.g., photosensitizers, isotretinoin) and medical conditions.
Avoid hot showers, saunas, and swimming pools for 24 hours.
Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for 1 week; use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen.
Use soothing/repairing or moisturizing creams as recommended by your clinician.
Avoid waxing, plucking, or threading between sessions. If shaving is needed, wait 24–48 hours and be gentle.
For redness or swelling, apply a cool compress and avoid scrubbing or picking.

Yes, but do not treat directly over tattooed skin. Lasers can cause burns, blistering, or pigment changes on tattoos. Cover tattoos with an opaque shield and avoid the area during treatment.
Results are limited on light (blonde, red) and gray/white hair because these hairs contain little to no melanin to absorb laser energy. The best outcomes occur with dark, coarse hair. With careful device selection and parameters, some reduction may be achieved on lighter hair, but white hair generally does not respond.
Laser hair-removal systems fall into three primary categories:
Alexandrite (755 nm): Fast; most effective on dark, coarse hair. Generally best for lighter skin tones (e.g., Fitzpatrick I–III).
Diode (commonly 808/810 nm; some platforms also include 755 and/or 1064 nm): Versatile across a wide range of skin types with deeper penetration. Certain multi-wavelength systems can deliver two or three wavelengths sequentially or simultaneously, depending on the device.
Nd:YAG (1064 nm): Safest for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV–VI); typically less effective on fine or light hair.
Note: IPL (intense pulsed light) is used for hair reduction but is not a true laser. The optimal choice depends on skin type, hair color/diameter, and clinical goals.
Hair-removal lasers use non-ionizing visible/near-infrared light, which lacks the energy to damage DNA in the way ionizing radiation does. Current evidence does not show an increased cancer risk from these procedures.
