Recorded live from the Aerolase booth at the 2015 American Society for Laser Medicine & Surgery (ASLMS), Dr. Arusha Campbell-Chambers presents her findings of her study on "Efficacy, Safety, Quality of life and Patient Satisfaction with a 650 µs Nd:YAG Laser for Hair Removal & Pseudofolliculitis Barbae in Dark Skin Types." Conducted with the Aerolase LightPod Neo 650-microsecond laser, she found that the quality of life for individuals effected by PFB improved dramatically after being treated with this laser, safe even for the darkest skin types, Fitzpatrick skin type 6.
