It is highly advisable to shave before getting a laser Hair Reduction session done. This ensures that there is no hair above the skin which the laser machine will pick. Laser machine tends to target the hair above/ below the skin. Shaving ensures there is no hair above the skin that the laser machine will target, hence preventing potential burns. It is highly advisable not to shave at home, instead let the technician shave just before doing the laser session.
Do not Wax during the course of the procedure even pre-post the sessions.
Laser hair reduction is a process that needs due care both on the part of the technician/doctor as well as on the part of the patient.
The following care check-list is highly recommended:-
- Avoid sun exposure for at least 4-6 weeks prior and post the procedure.
- Avoid makeup, facials and excessive rubbing or any other skin treatment for minimun one week before and after the procedure.
- Do not pluck/ wax hair while under-going laser hair reduction (Even pre/post the session).
- Apply post care ointments, moisturiser and thick coat of sunscreen as advised by the treating doctor.
- You can do cold sponging to get relief from redness.
- Your Dermatologist may prescribe medicines to reduce redness that can be applied for 5-7 days.
- In case you have extremely dense/ fast re-growth, a maintenance touch up session is advisable every 6-12 months.
Lasers remove hair for good, giving you a long-lasting, even permanent result. In only a few treatments, we can clear your skin of the unwanted hair that has bothered you for so long.
Traditional hair removal methods, such as waxing, shaving, depilatory creams, plucking/tweezing, sugaring, and stringing provide only temporary results — some for fewer than 24 hours. Within hours or possibly days, you are back at it again, hunched over a magnifying mirror to tweeze out facial hair, running a razor over tender skin, or enduring painful waxing. To make it worse, these methods can often stimulate hair growth!
Once you start LHR, you begin your life of being hair free where you want to be!
