Preparation Before and After Laser Hair Removal Treatment
Preparation Guidelines Before Receiving Laser Hair Removal Treatment
• No need to shave or wax before the treatment. The clinic will shave the area before the laser session using a new razor each time.
• Avoid using deodorant or spraying perfume on the treatment area to reduce the risk of irritation.
Post-Laser Hair Removal Care Instructions
• If you experience redness or swelling, apply aloe vera gel to soothe the area and keep the skin moisturized.• Avoid plucking or waxing the hair; instead, use trimming or shaving for at least two weeks after the laser treatment.
• For the first week, refrain from scratching or exfoliating the treated skin to prevent irritation. Also, avoid heat exposure, such as saunas.
• Avoid using cosmetics that contain alcohol, as they may increase the risk of skin irritation due to the temporary sensitivity caused by the laser treatment.
Common Concerns After Laser Hair Removal
• For women, it is advisable to avoid bikini or Brazilian laser treatments during menstruation, as it may increase discomfort.
• After laser hair removal, 50% of hair will be reduced within the first 3 sessions, and over 95% of hair will be reduced after 8 sessions.
