Who makes the best candidate for treatment?
Sources say that pseudofolliculitis is caused by coiling of the hair, so some people are more prone to the condition than others, namely those of African or Middle Eastern descent. Those patients who want relief from the itching, burning problem of razor bumps are excellent candidates for laser treatment. The only way to tell for sure is to set up your private consultation with one of our practitioners in the Columbia, MD and Baltimore areas.
