ABSTRACT
Hair removal with the ruby laser is one of the newest uses of laser technology. The laser seeks melanin in the hair shaft, and melanin content is highest during the growth phase of the hair follicle. Nursing care focuses on preparing the patient for the procedure, maintaining a safe operative environment, and teaching the patient skin care after the laser therapy.
