Your skin is Fitzpatrick Type III
Laser hair removal of dark hairs will be effective on this
type of skin. This type of skin absorbs more laser light
than lighter shades of skin, so the energy on some types
of lasers may be turned down somewhat to avoid damaging
the skin. A few more visits might need to be scheduled to
make the hair removal/reduction truly permanent. The procedure
may not provide permanent results for light brown or blonde
hair that is not markedly darker than the skin. If you are
currently tanned (even with tan-in-a-can) you should wait
before having any laser procedures. You want your skin to
be as light as possible for the greatest efficacy of treatment.
