Hi Mark,
I have worked with a few individuals who develop folliculitus in the
popliteal area of their residuum. It usually occurs during the hot summer
months. One individual had laser dipilation at the advice of his
physician. I may be wrong, but if my memory is correct, he said it takes
several treatments to permanently eliminate the hair. Due to the cost of
the treatment, he only had one treatment but was very pleased with the
results. He has moved out of state and I have no additional info
regarding long term success of this treatment. You might recommend he
discuss it with his physician. I hope this helps.
