laser hair removal

Hey guys, my brother-in-law specializes in selling the prolite laser machine and it does vascular and hair removal and I tried it and sorry to say, it didn't work. That’s when I started talking with a really cool plastic surgeon who actually, get this, understood the problems associated with this, along with other skin conditions on self-esteem. I asked him about the laser hair removal and he told me that it wouldn't really have any affect on kp because the redness or erythema as he called it, was a combination of mostly inflammation and some vascular proliferation and laser hair removal wouldn't rid us of that. On the flip side, that’s when he actually suggested chemo, and although it sounds drastic, he told me there's different forms of it not just radiation. Anyway, at least he and I are on the same page and as soon as I decide on a treatment and get started, I will let everyone know about it and it's results.
