• W271446391 abstract "PAKISTAN IS A COUNTRY OF 140 MILLION PEOPLE WITH skin complexions, hair color, and hair type that vary according to ethnic background. Among Pakistani women, hirsutism is a significant problem, with an estimated 15% to 20% suffering from some degree of the condition. To remove unwanted hair, Pakistani women have commonly used mechanical methods (such as waxing, threading, plucking, or tweezing), depilatory creams and lotions, or electrolysis. Laser hair removal has only recently become available. The majority of Pakistani women have darker skin types as measured by the Fitzpatrick Scale (Table 1). The use of early-generation laser hair removal systems, such as the ruby laser with a wavelength of 694 nm, was limited primarily to patients with lighter skin types. Because of the possibility of damage to the epidermis overlying the hair follicle caused by absorption of laser energy by epidermal melanin, most practitioners did not recommend laser hair removal for patients with Fitzpatrick Skin Types IV, V, or VI. But as the science and practice of laser hair removal have matured, newer technologies have been developed that enable laser hair removal to be offered safely to patients with a wider range of skin types. Hair removal procedures are now more frequently performed using lasers with longer wavelengths, such as the diode laser which emits a wavelength of 800 nm. The duration of the laser pulse has emerged as another key parameter to minimize the risk of epidermal injury in patients with large amounts of melanin in their epidermis. It is critical that treatment energy be applied over a pulse duration that is long enough to allow the heat generated in the epidermis to dissipate before reaching a tissue damage threshold, but short enough to allow the hair follicle temperature to build up to the damage threshold before dissipating. As importantly, active cooling of the skin before, during and after the laser pulse (especially in a manner that provides SUMMARY: This retrospective study examined hair removal using the LightSheerTM Diode Laser System for the first 1000 women (with Fitzpatrick Skin Types II to VI) treated at the Laserex Skin & Cosmology Clinic in Lahore, Pakistan. Overall, the women achieved satisfactory results within four or five treatment sessions, with apparent hair reduction ranging from 70% to 80% in women treated over their entire face and neck, up to 95% in women treated for hair on their legs, arms, or bikini line. Minor scabbing or pigmentation changes were observed in a small percentage of women treated, but these adverse effects were transient in nature and resolved after treatment was stopped. This study demonstrates that the LightSheer Diode Laser System provides both safe and effective removal of unwanted hair in patients with Fitzpatrick Skin Types II to VI.
