Laser Hair Removal and Photosensitive Drugs
Photosensitive drugs are the drugs that react to ultraviolet rays due to the high content of chemical compounds that have photoreactive agents. These drugs will be affected by any exposure to ultraviolet rays which include the radiation that is produced by laser machines.
The degree of the reaction will not be the same for all drugs and will also vary from one person to the other. Some of the photosensitive drugs include:
  • Hormonal treatments
  • Acne medications
  • Birth control pills
  • Anti-inflammatory medications
  • Selected antihistamines
  • Some antidepressant drugs
  • Cancer medications
A person who is under any prescription drugs should inform the aesthetician before the laser hair removal treatment so that he can determine if it will be right to go on with the treatment while taking the drugs.
The aesthetician will then inform the client of the possible side effects that may result if the laser hair removal is carried out while taking the photosensitive drugs. The client may decide to either bear the side effects or reschedule the laser hair removal to a later date when the client is through with the drugs.
There are people who have a naturally photosensitive skin should keep off photosensitive drugs for a few weeks before the laser hair removal treatment. This will reduce the risk of having severe burns and other side effects of laser hair removal as well.
Photosensitive drugs may lead to a phototoxic reaction after the laser hair removal treatment which will look as though the skin has suffered from severe sunburn. If this happens the use of photosensitive drugs should be avoided in the future sessions of the laser hair removal.
If you have suffered from a phototoxic reaction in the past after a laser hair removal treatment, you should let the aesthetician know before the treatment begins. It would also be advisable to have a patch test before the actual laser treatment to determine how the skin will react to the treatment.
