Can someone get a laser hair removal procedure done in the buttocks region?
Asked 2014-01-15
For the past few years I have struggled with a case of Pilonidal disease, which is a pocket of infection near the buttocks region that drains and bleeds, and its cause is mostly due to an abundance of hair growing in that area. I have had two operations and both have failed. My surgeon recommended looking into laser hair removal in order to be able to have the surgery once more, and not have to worry about hair getting into the incision and recreating the problem.

I don't think that the laser will go so deep to reach the periostium of the bone where this hair grows in the case of Pylonidal cyst. Laser hair removal can be used in all of the skin of you body if you have dark hair, and it has an specifi penetration in milimiters.
