Laser Hair Removal is a permanent hair removal solution that is performed in several sessions and has great results. After the Laser Hair Removal, you should follow a few instructions and make sure you keep the treated areas healthy.
After the Laser Hair Removal Procedure
The Laser Hair Removal procedure is done in several sessions; the number of sessions depends on the area treated and the abundance of hair in the area. After each of these sessions, you may experience redness and swelling. Apply some ice packs on the treated areas.
You may also notice skin flakiness 2 to 3 days after the Laser Hair Removal procedure. Apply a rich moisturizer cream several times per day and make sure not to peel the skin that tends to come off.
Monitor the treated areas for signs of infection. Infections after a Laser Hair Removal procedure are rare, but may occur, as the skin is more sensitive. Avoid sun exposure or tanning salons during the treatment and wear sun block when outside.
Lifestyle and Maintenance
Even if the Laser Hair Removal procedure is considered a procedure with permanent results, you may notice a few hairs growing in the area. Remove these with tweezers or the hair removal treatment of your choice. Keep your skin clean and hydrated. Use a cream that is suited to your skin type.
A few weeks after the last Laser Hair Removal session, the skin will be less sensitive and may be exposed to sun. Drink plenty of water to maintain your skin hydrated and healthy.
