Please read carefully and understanding the Post-Treatment instructions for your Laser Hair Removal Treatment
- SPF 30/50 must be worn on the area daily or the area clothing to prevent UV exposure.
- After the treatment, the area may be noticeably red and may be swollen around each follicle. The area can be cooled after the treatment to reduce the inflammation. This redness may last 2 hours up to several days after the treatment depending on individual.
- The hair will shed after the treatment within 1-3 weeks.
- Do not tweeze, wax or pluck the area being treated between or prior to sessions. Only shave the area.
- Exfoliation can be done to help the hair shed faster (please wait a minimum of 1 week after the treatment to do this).
- Hot showers and baths are not advisable for a minimum 48 hours after the treatment. Only cool shower should be taken.
- Avoid deodorant for 12 hours, it can then be used so long as the skin is not irritated.
- Exercise is not recommended for 48 hours after the treatment as this will reheat the area and may cause discomfort.
- Itching after treatments may occur, topical hydrocortisone and Benadryl can be applied to alleviate this, or an oral antihistamine can be taken (Claritin, is better for the day use to prevent drowsiness).
- Your Practitioner will advise you on the gaps between treatments as they can vary on the area of the body and depending on the results from the previous treatment. Typically, the face will be every 4 weeks and the body every 6-8 weeks.
