Laser hair removal may make acne worse initially especially if hairs in the treated area are thick and coarse. After 2-3 sessions hair will become lighter, finer and will grow at a much slower rate. This will allow the skin the time it needs to heal and reduce the likelihood of further breakouts. If proper after-care procedures are followed these effects can definitely be kept to a minimum.
