Is any surgery safe? NO!!! People get plastic and gastric bypass surgery all the time. Even if its not surgery there is still a risk. Example: Botox. You you want to get laser hair removal then don't be afraid of the slight risk. Do it because you want to.

Yes, the procedure is completely safe. After the procedure, patients may experience slight pink or red skin in the treated area. The color will most likely fade within a few minutes to a few hours, and in rare cases, a few days. When cold packs are used, the skin will return to normal much more quickly. The lasers utilize energy wavelengths of light that pass directly through the skin into the hair follicles. Lasers that do not pass through the skin leave residuals. For example, X-rays taken at the hospital leave a residual in the body. If too many are taken in a certain time period, the residuals can become a health risk. The lasers used for laser hair removal are passive, they leave no residuals; therefore, they are completely safe

Short-term side effects may include a slight reddening of the skin or local swelling which typically lasts less than an hour, although infrequently last a few days. Most clients resume normal activity after their treatments. Occasionally, a slight rash may occur on body parts that are difficult to wash (i.e. men’s backs). In very rare instances, some blistering and discoloration of the skin may occur which are usually only temporary.
The ideal candidate has dark hair and light skin. Dark hairs absorb more of the laser light and lighter skin allows more transmission of the laser light into the follicle. Unfortunately blonde, gray and light red hairs respond least to the laser treatments, and at this time electrolysis would be the best permanent alternative.
Middle eastern skin is an ideal candidate and would get ideal results for most brands.
hope i helped. :)

1. It is safe...as long as you do not go out and get a tan before a treatment. A tan causes the melanin in your skin to rise to the surface and absorbs the energy that is meant for the hair follicle.
2. Stay away from the following lasers: Ruby, Epilight. They were early systems that cause more damage to the skin.
3. Good lasers for your type of skin would be: Alexandrite, Yag, IPL.
I have put two links in for candidate types and laser systems.

from personal experience, i believe that laser treatment for hair removal is safe. however, i am caucasian. since you are middle eastern, your skin contains more melanin, therefore it probably is not recommended. the laser works by emitting a light impulse, which is then guided down the hair shaft by the dark color of hair, and since your skin is naturally darker it is not very effective in targeting the hair. also, with any laser treatment, there is a risk of burning if you do not go to a trained professional (usually in just doctor's offices).

I went to a free consultation and I was told that there was a risk of scarring to any skin. Most laser hair removal businesses will offer a free consult. Check around.

Laser hair removal is “permanent” hair removal method but is expensive and you have to find a trained professional, otherwise your skin could be damaged.
