Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) aka PCOD is a common hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age, often leading to symptoms like irregular periods, acne, weight gain, and, notably, excessive hair growth (hirsutism). This unwanted hair, typically appearing on the face, neck, chest, or back, can be distressing and difficult to manage with traditional hair removal methods. If you’re looking for a solution, PCOS laser hair removal can be a life-changing treatment.
At Derma Clinic, we understand the unique challenges of hormonal hair growth and are here to guide you through the process with expertise and compassion.
Understanding Hormonal Hair Growth in PCOS
PCOS triggers an imbalance in reproductive hormones, resulting in higher androgen levels that stimulate the growth of coarse, dark hair in areas usually more typical for men. While shaving, waxing, and threading offer temporary relief, these methods can be time-consuming, uncomfortable, and may even worsen skin irritation.
Why Laser Hair Removal is Effective for PCOS
Laser hair removal targets the melanin in hair follicles, destroying them at the root and significantly reducing regrowth over time. For women with PCOS, this technology offers a long-term solution to the persistent problem of hormonal hair growth. Most patients experience a substantial reduction in hair thickness and density after a series of treatments, with many reporting extended periods of smooth, hair-free skin.
What to Expect from Laser Hair Removal with PCOS
- Multiple Sessions Required: Due to the hormonal nature of PCOS, more sessions may be needed compared to individuals without PCOS—typically 8 to 12 sessions for optimal results, as opposed to the standard 6 to 8.
- Gradual Improvement: Studies show that while hair reduction may be slower, satisfaction rates are high, with 95% of PCOS patients reporting positive outcomes after completing their treatment plan.
- Longer Hair-Free Intervals: The cumulative effect of consistent treatments increases the time between regrowth, reducing the need for frequent maintenance.
- Customizable for All Skin and Hair Types: Advances in laser technology, especially triple-wavelength systems, have made laser hair removal effective for a wider range of skin tones and hair types.
- Must Be under Endocrinologist consultation to manage hormones with medication when required.
