The Nd Yag laser hair removal machines, the Alexandrite laser, the ruby laser, the diode laser, Intense Pulse Light or IPL laser hair removal are all the examples of the best options to be used on the darker skin for laser hair removal treatment.

The Nd Yag Laser hair removal machine is known to be the best option for dark skin. This laser can successfully be used on darker skin types with minimal risks. The Nd Yag emits the longest wavelength of light at 1064 nm.

The Alexandrite laser which emits light at 755nm and the diode laser which emits light at 810nm are the other very popular and commonly used laser hair removal machines. The ruby laser is not so much common today  as it used to be .It was one of the first lasers that was ever produced. The ruby laser hair removal treatment had the shortest wavelength of all, at 694nm,that is why it is not appropriat for the darker skin at all. Intense Pulse Light or IPL hair removal treatment is also a popular method especially for facial hair removal, and the unwanted hair from the eye brows and body as well.

If you have darker skin,then you have to find a very experienced laser practitioner who has different lasers and is very good at using them.
