BACKGROUND: Laser hair removal has become an accepted form of long-term hair reduction and is now one of the most common dermatologic procedures. Trichoscan is a validated method of assessing hair length, thickness, and density and growth rate using dermoscopy.
OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to evaluate the trichoscopic changes during treatment of hirsutism with 1064-nm neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser.
METHODS: Seventy patients with idiopathic facial hirsutism referring to the laser centers of Al-Azhar University hospital (Asyut and Cairo) between December 2012 and October 2014 were enrolled in this open-label, multicentric study. All participants received six sessions of 1064-nm Nd:YAG laser at 4-week intervals. Mean hair density/cm(2) , percentage of terminal/vellus hair ratio, and hair thickness (mm) were assessed at baseline and 1 month after each session for six sessions using trichoscan.
RESULTS: Seventy female patients completed the study protocol. At the final visit, mean hair density, terminal/vellus hair ratio, and hair thickness were significantly decreased from baseline (73.7 + 20.6, 72.5 + 14.7, 0.095 + 0.02, respectively) to (19.4 + 5.6, 21.3 + 5.2, 0.02 ± 0.007, respectively) (P < 0.05 for each).
CONCLUSION: One thousand and sixty-four-nm Nd:YAG laser is an effective and safe method in the reduction of unwanted facial hair. Trichoscan is an easy and more accurate method in monitoring the treatment of hair disorders.
