Laser Hair Removal – Preparation
Before receiving your treatments you will want to stop shaving for a few days in order for the hair to grow very short and be easy to see. If the area is shaved too close to treatment, then it may be difficult for the provider to see and therefore treat. In addition, it is recommended that the area is exfoliated prior to treatment. Wearing breathable clothing to your appointment is suggested to decrease the possibility of irritation on your skin.
Laser Hair Removal – Aftercare
After your treatment it is recommended to avoid public gyms, pools and hot tubs for at least 24 hours in order to avoid being exposed to any bacteria. Hot showers are also not recommended. Your skin may have a slight burning sensation after treatment and have small raised bumps where the laser treated. This is normal and will subside after a few hours. Showering in cooler water is encouraged, as well as gently exfoliating and moisturizing. It is best to wait 2-3 days before you exfoliate the treated area. You should not tweeze the area being treated. This will slow the process since the hair is being pulled out from the root. The tweezed hair will still grow back since the follicle wasn’t destroyed and the laser will not be able to effectively treat the area.
