Vivacare has made available the clinical opinion of skin care experts about laser hair removal.
Dermatologist Jeffrey Ellis, M.D. stated, "Laser hair removal done by a skilled physician in the medical office setting is a reliable, safe and effective procedure."
Dermatologist Jeffrey Dover, M.D. stated, "If you are thinking about purchasing an at-home laser hair removal device, first, be sure you are a good candidate for this treatment. Fair skinned individuals with dark hair do the best while dark skinned individuals are more tricky to treat. The risks of skin discoloration after using one of these home devices for darker skinned individuals and for the most part the devices are not indicated for anybody except those with fair to moderately light skin with dark hair. But if you do have dark hair and light skin, and you don’t have a huge area to treat, it might be worth trying one of these devices."
