What To Do After Your Laser Hair Removal Treatment

shape

Thank you for choosing us! Congratulations on taking a step towards achieving smooth skin. To ensure optimal results, it's crucial to follow the instructions provided. If you have any queries, feel free to contact us.

Before discussing post-care instructions, let's address the expected results. Within two weeks, approximately 10%-15% of hair in the treated area will naturally shed. Shaving is permitted, but avoid waxing, bleaching, or plucking to maintain hair follicles. Hair regrowth usually occurs in four weeks (face and neck) or six weeks (body). Consistency and completing the full treatment package are key for up to 80% hair reduction, resulting in softer, finer, and less dense hair.

Don't forget to hydrate your skin

Following your treatment, apply a thin layer of Vaseline® or Aquaphor® to the treated area three times a day or as needed to soothe any potential irritation.

Protect your skin from the sun

For at least three days after your treatment, it's important to avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds. Remember to apply sunscreen with SPF 50+ to the treated area when outdoors and use protective accessories like wide-brimmed hats and sunglasses.

Keep cool and dry

To ensure the best results, it's important to avoid activities that can cause excessive sweating or moisture for 24 hours after your treatment. This includes steam rooms, saunas, hot tubs, pedicures, exercise, and swimming for at least three days.

Relax in the shower

For optimal results, it's best to avoid hot baths and showers. Instead, opt for short, cool or lukewarm showers. Avoid excessive scrubbing or shaving the treated area. After showering, gently pat the area dry with a clean towel.

Steer clear of irritants

To ensure optimal healing, avoid harsh soaps, medicated washes, scrubs, peels, and topical prescription products like retinoids for at least three days. Instead, use gentle moisturizers like Vaseline, Aquaphor, or hydrocortisone 1%, and apply sunscreen as needed. If necessary, you may use same-day makeup. Remember, avoid scrubbing the treated area to promote proper recovery.
