Hi, i have a mitral valve insufficieny of 2 grade. can i still have a laser alexandrite hair removal done on specific parts of my body?

YES: However ask your cardiologist if he/she would recommend antibiotic pre-medication. Be sure you have all the information about the hair removal procedure for your health care provider to review! Hope this helps! Dr Z
