The types of laser instruments used for patients’ treatment were: Cynosure Elite Laser, Epicare Alexnrite Laser, Candle Gentle Yag Laser hair removal machine, Diod Lser hair removal, Gentle Laser plus. The studies' goal is to comparing traditional hair removal methods (such as wet shave or waxing) with laser technique in order to conduct clinical trials. The findings of the first group, in which 165 people took part, revealed that pain produced by wound infection in the time following the process is significantly associated with the existence and severity of postoperative wound infection. When it comes to preoperative hair removal, namely after shaving, it is highly connected with the existence and severity of skin injuries of various ranks suffered during the procedure. The second group, which included 190 competitors (160 females, 30 males). The findings revealed a breakdown of the adverse effects that were noticed and documented during the course of the research. 44.1 percent of the population has skin sensitivity, 2.8 percent has skin irritation, 14.5 percent has erythema, 24.1 percent has burns, and 14.5 percent has hyperpigmentation, according to the study.
Additionally, a comparison and contrast of ethnicity, as well as the effects of traditional and laser treatment methods, were included in the study. The samples, which were identified by ethnicity, were collected from several clinics around the state and compared to the results of the study (which used traditional and laser methodologies) conducted in Erbil. There was no statistically meaningful variation between the two groups based on those assessments.
