While laser hair removal is generally not painful or particularly complicated, there are still a few key rules to follow in the time leading up to your appointment to guarantee receiving the best treatment results moreover minimize the risk of any side effects.
The most important is to avoid tanning, natural and artificial. Tanning is a form of damage to the skin that increases the risk of negative side effects occurring and decreases the effectiveness of laser as it is dependent on your natural skin and hair colour to work at its best.
48 hours after your session (and 48 hours before your next session), it is important to gently exfoliate the treated area 1-2 times a week. This sloughs off any dead skin to renew healthy new skin, and speeds up the hair shedding process that occurs post-laser - bye stubble! A critical benefit of exfoliating in between your sessions is that it makes the laser penetrate deeper into your hair follicles during your treatment, effectively damaging the hair follicles to reduce hair growth. A bonus of exfoliating is that it reduces dryness associated with dead skin build up, making it less uncomfortable during your treatment. At Everly Beauty, we carry professional products suitable for exfoliating. Ask our staff for more info!
The laser beam penetrates deeply and causes moisture loss in the skin due to the heat response it creates in the skin. That is why moisturizing your skin 48 hours post-treatment and every day until the day before your treatment, is also an important way to replenish moisture into your skin. Healthy skin is more likely to be resistant to damage! We also carry professional moisturizers that go well with and are safe with laser hair removal. Don't forget to ask our staff about them!
