A member asked:
Will laser hair removal effectively prevent hidradenitis suppurativa from getting worse/lesions from recurring/new ones forming?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is one of the : treatments we use in the armamentarium to treat hidradenitis. By destroying the follicles, less cysts tend to form. However, other modalities are necessary to keep the condition under control.
