PRETREATMENT LASER HAIR REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS

Two weeks before treatment and throughout the course of treatment patients are advised to:

  • Avoid tanning and sunless tanners
  • No waxing, Plucking, Tweezing or Electrolysis
  • The area to be treated should be shaved one day prior to treatment as closely as possible so the laser can target the energy towards the hair follicle. If you fail to shave beforehand we will likely shave the areas at the time of the appointment.
  • On the day of treatment no lotion, makeup, perfume and deodorant should be used on the areas to be treated.

 

POST LASER HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT
After treatment, you may experience brief swelling and redness which subsides within a day. Avoid scratching the treated area and use sun screen. Within 1-3 weeks, you should experience shedding of hair in the treated area. At first, it will feel like the hair is growing back in, but these are the hairs coming through the skin to shed. After shedding finishes, you might experience little black hair dots stuck in the skin which will eventually shed, but may take a bit longer. Exfoliating and/or scrubbing gently in the shower with a cleanser or a loofah can help speed up the process of the hairs falling out
