What Do Red Spots On The Legs Indicate?

Hello, My legs have had red dots all get them for the past few years. I thought it was from shaving so I m getting laser hair removal...I ve had 4 treatments and so far there s been no change in the dots on my legs.... Waxing makes it worse and I feel like I ve tried everything under the sun to get rid of them. What do I do?

Hello,

Is it an allergic reaction to the product you are using?

Kindly evaluate, if you are using anything which is causing your allergy because if you are persistently applying it, then it will cause red spots. So, need to stop the allergen.

You can try an antihistamine for 3 to 5 days which will reduce the allergic reaction. if that is not helpful, then a steroid cream would help you, but you need to go to a dermatologist for the prescription. Kindly get yourself examined once because without pictures I cannot give a definite diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
