PRE AND POST TREATMENT
PRE TREATMENT
Let's make sure we get every single hair we can!
6 weeks before - Stop the waxing, plucking, epilating, hair removal creams and electrolysis.
4 weeks before - Avoid tanning beds and self-tanners.
1 week before - Do not apply Retinol/ Retinoic acid-containing creams/lotions or any other types of sun sensitive creams.
24 hours before - Shave the area that will be treated. Avoid shaving the same day as we want to avoid using the laser on any knicks the razor created to prevent any thermal injury to the skin.
Day of - Come with clean skin. Free of creams, deodorants, and oils.
POST TREATMENT
After your appointment, you may notice some erythema which is redness and swelling to the skin. Some people's skin is more sensitive than others. It is best to avoid any tight clothing as it is now a delicate area. Those who have freckles and moles may notice them sluff off, do not scratch. Do not shave if swollen or crusted. If redness continues, use aloe vera gel on the area.
Yes, you can shave the area during your treatments!
After a couple of weeks, you will notice the hair grow and fall out.
Avoid having hot showers, saunas, and steam rooms immediately after the treatment.
