What Should We Do Before And After Laser Hair Removal Treatment For A Better Result?

Compared with traditional depilation methods such as razors, depilatory creams, and wax, laser hair removal is fast with effective, and long-lasting results. The laser energy only works on the hair follicles and does not affect other skin tissues such as sweat glands, greatly ensuring safety.

In order to achieve better laser epilation results, what should we do before laser treatment?

First, avoid sun exposure before laser hair removal. Secondly, do not shave hairs without authorization before the first treatment so that the beauticians can evaluate the efficacy and formulate a treatment plan. Do not pluck hairs 6 weeks before laser hair removal, and do not use products such as beeswax and depilatory cream, otherwise it will seriously affect the effect of laser hair removal.

Thirdly, one day before the treatment, you can use soap to clean the treated areas. Be careful to avoid using shower gel as much as possible, because some shower gel will adhere to the surface of the skin and react with the gel needed during the treatment process, affecting the efficacy and may increase side effects. You can shave the hairs with a razor if your beauticians asks.

For safety sake,we do not recommend laser treatment for pregnant women or people with scar constitution.

How to take care of the skin after diode laser depilation?

Laser epilation treatment usually does not require special care, but you must pay attention to sun protection.

In addition, in order to make the skin in the treatment area recover better, you can apply cooling for 10 to 15 minutes to relieve the slight burning sensation in the treatment area or the mild erythema around the hair follicles.

Some hair in the treatment area may not fall off immediately after treatment, which is normal and there is no need to worry. The remaining hair in the treatment area will fall off by itself after 1 to 2 weeks. If you can't wait, you can remove it after 24 hours.

On the day of treatment, it is advisable to clean the skin with low-temperature water, and use mild moisturizing products after cleaning. Avoid sauna and hot water washing.

However,it should be emphasized that although laser depilation is safe and effective, it may also have side effects, which are related to the quality of the equipment and the beauticians' operation. Therefore, you should go to a regular aesthetic center for treatment, ask the beauticians to evaluate the hair condition before the treatment, and choose the most suitable diode laser hair removal machine and the best treatment plan.
