Laser Hair Removal for PCOS

Laser hair removal can be effective for women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who experience unwanted hair growth, a condition known as hirsutism. It can be a viable option to manage and reduce unwanted hair growth. It offers a longer-lasting solution than temporary hair removal methods like shaving, waxing, or threading.

Understanding PCOS and Excessive Hair Growth

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a medical condition caused by hormonal imbalances in women. A blood test at your Doctors can determine if you have PCOS. While severe cysts are not usually removed, hormone therapy may be recommended to balance hormones. PCOS leads to excess androgen, “male” hormones that cause physical signs like excessive facial or body hair. Although hormone replacement therapy can impact future hair growth, it may not affect existing excessive hair. Laser hair removal is unequivocally the most effective solution to manage and reduce unwanted hair growth.

The Impact of PCOS: Common Symptoms

PCOS can have various symptoms, including irregular or absent periods, reduced fertility, excessive hair growth, acne, weight gain, and thinning head hair. The presence of excessive hair can significantly affect a woman’s confidence and self-esteem. As a laser clinic, we understand that we cannot address the root cause of PCOS, but we can help manage its unpleasant symptoms. Alleviating these symptoms can boost your confidence and empower you to cope with the condition more effectively.

Dealing with Excessive Hair Growth

Excessive hair growth (hirsutism) can cause discomfort and side effects such as scarring, pigmentation, acne, ingrown hairs, and uneven skin tone. Daily hair removal techniques like plucking, shaving, waxing, or threading can contribute to these issues. To prevent further complications, prompt action is necessary. Laser hair removal is recommended to stop the progression of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), especially common in individuals with Asian and Black heritage. We advise keeping the face protected from the sun and wearing factor 50 sun cream daily to minimise pigmentation risks.

Opting for Laser Hair Removal

Booking a free consultation with our specialists is the best way to explore suitable options for managing excessive hair growth, whether through laser hair removal or electrolysis for sparser hairs. During the consultation, we will discuss the recommended frequency of treatments and potential solutions to address pigmentation and scarring resulting from standard hair removal techniques.

Understanding the Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal offers a permanent solution for excessive hair growth by directly targeting hair follicles and inhibiting further hair production. After each session, most of the hair falls out, providing relief for clients accustomed to daily shaving or plucking routines. The constant attack on the hair every 4 weeks reduces hair density and thickness, resulting in less noticeable regrowth. With a series of treatments, excessive hair can become permanently reduced or eliminated. However, clients with PCOS or hormonal imbalances may require ongoing maintenance, as the frequency of regrowth is unpredictable and depends on individual hormone fluctuations.

Tailored Laser Hair Removal Treatments

Our laser hair removal treatments are personalised to meet your specific needs. Most clients begin with a course of 8 sessions and are reassessed to determine the number and frequency of additional treatments required for optimal results. We understand that each client’s experience with PCOS may vary, and we strive to provide customised solutions for every individual.

PCOS Laser Hair Removal FAQs

How many sessions will I need?

We always recommend a minimum of and then we reassess after that to decide on the next course of action.

Is electrolysis or laser better?

Both work on all skin types at Pulse Light Clinic. If you can count the hairs you have and they are medium or coarse in thickness then electrolysis is usually the better option. Most areas work better with laser, for bigger areas and high-density laser is a more effective and cost effective choice.

Do I need more sessions of laser hair removal if I have PCOS?

On non-hormonal areas with thick hairs laser works quickly for those with PCOS just like for those without, as the hair is usually darker and thicker which the laser prefers! The upper body is more hormone governed so for those with PCOS it usually does take more sessions. We can review your progress whenever you like though by booking in a review with reception!

Does hair grow back thicker after laser hair removal?

When hair does grow back on the body, it’s typically sporadic and very fine.

Hair regrowth can be controlled by having laser seasons top-ups as required.

If hair growth is sporadic, a different option is electrolysis. Electrolysis operates on hairs individually rather than on a big area.

In PCOS condition retaining your hormones balanced can help reduce the possibility of hair regrowth. You can help balance these hormones with medications or with dietary adjustments, such as low carbohydrate consumption.

Do you offer discounts for those with PCOS?

If you need a 2nd or third package on an area then yes we can, please speak to you therapist or reception, minimum spend applies.
