How Laser Hair Removal Works

• The diode laser emits concentrated light, which is absorbed by hair follicle pigment, permanently reducing hair growth in the treated area.
• For pilonidal sinus, laser hair reduction can help by minimising hair that may contribute to infection and recurrence.
• The procedure treats multiple follicles at once, providing quick, precise results with little discomfort.

Who Should Consider This?

• Patients with a history of pilonidal sinus disease or recurring infections in the lower back/buttock crease.
• Those seeking long-term hair reduction for hygiene and to reduce risk of recurrence.
• Ideal for those with darker, coarse hair; white/grey hair does not respond as effectively.

Myth: Laser hair removal is only cosmetic.

Fact: Medical use in pilonidal sinus can reduce recurrence and improve skin health under supervision.

Body Areas & Sessions

• Mainly done in the natal cleft, lower back, and sometimes gluteal regions.
• Session duration varies (10-40 mins) depending on area and density.
• Multiple sessions required, spaced 4-8 weeks apart; typically, 6-8 sessions provide up to 890% hair reduction.

Do’s & Don’ts (Before Procedure)

• Do arrive with the area clean-shaven as instructed by our dermatologist.
• Do protect skin from sun exposure for 2 weeks before each session.
• Don’t wax or pluck hair; shaving is permitted.
• Don’t apply any creams, deodorants, or makeup to the treatment area on the day.

Do’s & Don’ts (After Procedure)

• Do apply soothing aloe gel or cold packs if redness occurs.
• Do continue gentle cleansing and moderate moisturising as recommended.
• Don’t vigorously scrub or expose the treated area to heat (sauna, steam) for 48 hours.
• Don’t pick, scratch, or irritate the area while mild redness or swelling lasts.

Q: How soon will results be visible?

A: Hair begins to shed 7-14 days post-session; optimal reduction occurs after several sessions.

Side Effects & Safety

• Temporary redness, mild warmth, or small bumps are common; these subside within hours to days.
• Rare effects include pigment changes or mild swelling; all typically reversible.
• Strict protocols at DermaStation ensure minimal risks and maximised comfort for sensitive areas.

Downtime & Recovery

• Most patients resume normal activities directly after procedure.
• Avoid strenuous exercise and friction at the site for 24-48 hours for best results.
• Hair shedding and smoothness appear gradually over weeks.
