Get laser hair removal Laser hair removal permanently destroys trapped hair follicles so you'll never have to deal with ingrown hairs again. "Laser hair removal targets the pigment at the base of the hair follicle," explains Talakoub. "Lasering a stuck hair will disrupt the follicle, singe (i.e. lightly burn) the hair and eventually your body will either dissolve the hair or release it to the top layer of the skin." For best results, visit a professional—be it a dermatologist or someone licensed to perform laser hair removal like an esthetician. "Shave two days prior to lasering so hair stubble is slightly visible," she adds.
