Hello, i am looking for a full bikini diode laser hair removal and i need to know if the diode laser will affect my genitals or cause any infertility.

Dr. Mark Burke answered

Specializes in Surgery - Plastics

No.: The laser used in hair reduction procedures does not penetrate fully thru the skin and outside of some potential temporary redness and/or irritation will not cause any long-lasting problems with your genitals or fertility. See an experienced plastic surgeon or dermatologist.
