Laser hair removal and reproduction. Is there a connection?

Let's explain why: 

1. The mechanism of action depends on the type of laser, for example, a diode laser with a wavelength of 810 nm. The laser beam affects the follicle pigment (melanin). A correctly selected laser wavelength penetrates to a depth of 3 mm from the surface of the skin and acts exclusively on the hair bulb. Without affecting the surrounding tissues. Yes - yes, the laser will not penetrate anywhere deeper. 

There are other types of lasers: neodymium - wavelength 1060 nm, penetrates a little deeper. Alexandrite - 755 nm (has an increased risk of burns). Ruby - 694 nm - is considered an outdated version of the laser and removes only dark hair.  

Laser hair removal has contraindications: 

1. Pregnancy and lactation - only because there are not enough publications on this topic. 
2. Use of antibiotics, photosensitive drugs and retinoids. 
3. Psoriasis. 
4. Epilepsy. 
5. Diabetes. 
6. Oncological diseases. 
7. Herpes. 
Laser hair removal is less effective if there are hormonal disorders. 
And the most important thing! In order for the procedure to be as effective and safe as possible - choose professionals!
