Skin care after laser hair removal
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive method of hair removal as it targets the follicle. To achieve the desired result, it is necessary to follow skin care rules. Then the effect after the epilation will last as long as possible.
General skin care recommendations
Laser hair removal is the best alternative to shaving. The skin will not have systematic irritations. To consolidate the effect of the procedure, follow these recommendations:
- Do not wet the area where the epilation was performed for a day. Also, limit bathing to 5-10 minutes for the next 10-14 days.
- Use sunscreen if you plan to sunbathe. The most effective are those with an SPF factor of at least 50.
- If laser hair removal was performed on the shins or thighs, use moisturizing creams or lotions.
- Choose alcohol-free tonics for daily care.
- Do not visit solariums and saunas for two weeks.
Getting rid of unwanted hair requires careful care to avoid the risk of inflammation. To do this, it is necessary to apply cream containing panthenol to the skin for three to five days. Consult a specialist before using products to avoid allergic reactions.
Post-laser hair removal care for different body areas
Laser hair removal is performed on a specific area of the body.
The care for each of them is different, let’s consider in detail what needs to be done:
Face. Apply sunscreen before every outing. Peels, deep cleaning, and scrubbing masks are not allowed. This can damage the skin, which is sensitive after the procedure.- Armpits. Do not apply deodorants immediately after the procedure.
- Back, abdomen, arms, and legs. We do not recommend wearing tight clothing as the fabric will create additional pressure on the treated areas. The best option is loose-fitting clothing made from natural materials.
- Bikini area. Take a bath for no more than 10 minutes for 5-7 days. Do not overheat the treated area.
By following these simple rules, you will fully experience the effectiveness of laser hair removal. Recommendations should be followed after each session. Your epilation specialist will tell you more.
