SUMMARY
Abstract
Laser hair removal remains a leading light-based aesthetic treatment, with 810 nm diode lasers widely recognized for safety and effectiveness. This study builds on earlier short- and mid-term results by evaluating Diolaze (810 nm diode laser, InMode) at 1 year following three axillary hair removal treatments. Eleven of fourteen female patients returned for 12-month follow-up visits, where reproducible hair counts and photographs were compared with baseline data.
Conclusion
Results demonstrated a statistically significant 72.9% average hair reduction at 1 year after the last treatment. The study further confirmed the long-term safety of Diolaze, with no burns, pigmentary changes, infections, or unexpected adverse events reported. These findings reinforce Diolaze as a reliable solution for long-term diode laser hair removal with sustained results beyond 6 months, extending clinical confidence in its durability.
