Background and Objectives Although several lasers are available for treatment of unwanted hair, treatment of darker skin types is especially challenging because of increased concentrations of epidermal melanin. The laser energy absorbed by targeted hair follicles is reduced, and the risk of side effects in the epidermis is increased. While many studies have documented the safety and efficacy of different laser systems, few studies investigating laser hair removal in Korea have been reported. This study was conducted in order to compare effectiveness, satisfaction level, and safety of a long-pulsed alexandrite laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) in axillary hair removal in Korean women.
