Objectives: Clinical trials showed the efficacy of several biologic drugs, antibiotics, laser light device. Novel therapeutic options seem to be promising, but dermatologists will have to evaluate their effectiveness and safety in daily clinical practice. Introduction: Since 1996, lasers and IPL have been used for hair removal mostly for cosmetic reasons. However, in dermatology hair removal has also been used for the treatment of diseases, such as hirsutism, hypertricosis, and for hair-bearing skin grafts. Hidradenits Suppurativa (HS) is a chronic disabling disorder, with exacerbations, recurrence, and progression despite medical and extensive surgical treatment. Histologic studies have suggested that HS is a disorder of the terminal follicular epithelium with follicular hyperkeratosis and obstruction acting as an early event in the pathogenesis of HS.
