After Care for Laser Hair Removal

When you have hair removal laser treatment performed, taking care of your skin afterward is super important. Aftercare instructions are designed to keep your skin healthy and thriving. After laser hair removal, your skin might feel a bit sensitive. Following the aftercare tips provided by your laser hair removal technician helps protect your skin. We’ve discussed in previous  articles the importance of pampering your skin and avoiding any type of heat after your hair removal laser treatment session. Here are a few more helpful tips:

Don’t Apply Pressure

The treated area needs time to heal, so avoid applying any type of pressure to the area for at least a few days. This means no scratching, tweezing, scrubbing, or rubbing! Body scrubs are a definite no-no as they contain abrasives that are designed to exfoliate the skin.

Avoid Swimming

Avoid swimming for at least 48 hours after hair removal laser treatment. Swimming pools contain chemicals that can irritate your freshly treated skin. Natural bodies of water can harbor bacteria, algae, and other components that can irritate the skin.

As we’ve discussed, following some reasonable aftercare tips can help your skin heal and ensure you are on the path to silky-smooth results!

Laser hair removal allows you to say goodbye to those pesky hairs and hello to silky smooth skin. We’ve discussed in previous articles the importance of properly preparing for hair removal laser treatment. We are now exploring some aftercare tips.

Let’s take a look at another aftercare tip your hair removal laser treatment specialist will likely recommend.

Avoid Heat

Avoid sun exposure and excessive heat for a few days after laser hair removal. It’s also important to avoid hot showers, saunas, and strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours. Avoid exposing the treated area to direct sunlight and be sure to wear sunscreen (at least SPF 50) if you need to go outside. It’s normal for some hair to shed in the days after treatment, so don’t be alarmed if you see this happening. Avoid picking at the skin or exfoliating the treated area to prevent irritation.

How Should I Prepare For Laser Hair Removal?

For those looking to bid farewell to unwanted body hair for good, laser hair removal is a popular and effective solution. Achieving optimal results requires proper preparation.

Skincare Routine

Caring for your skin is crucial before your laser hair removal session. Stick to gentle cleansers and moisturizers. Avoid any harsh exfoliants or chemical peels that could irritate your skin. It’s also a good idea to skip any retinoids or skin-lightening products in the days leading up to your treatment to prevent sensitivity.

Hydration and Healthy Diet

Laser Hair Removal: Safety Precautions and Considerations

Laser Hair Removal: Safety Precautions and Considerations

Laser hair removal is a procedure that permanently reduces and/or removes unwanted hair. It works by damaging the follicles that produce hair, so hair is no longer able to grow. There are a few safety precautions you should review and consider as you embark on this innovative and effective procedure. Our next series of articles will discuss this in more detail. Let’s get started:

Make Sure Your Technician is Qualified

Laser hair removal offers a wide array of both aesthetic and health benefits. However, not every laser hair removal center is qualified to deliver hair removal laser treatment services. You should seek treatment from professionals who have extensive experience in laser hair removal and are dedicated to ensuring your safety and achieving the best possible results. Prior to undergoing laser hair removal, a thorough assessment of your skin and hair types is essential. This evaluation assists in determining the appropriate approach to address your unique needs.

The Laser Makes All The Difference

Be sure to ask what type of laser your laser hair removal center uses. Many utilize intense pulsed light (IPL) which is not a true laser. Be sure your hair removal laser treatment is performed using a true medical laser. When it comes to hair reduction or permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers uses the FDA cleared CANDELA medical laser which is safe and produces exemplary results.

If you want the best hair removal treatment, Manhattan Laser Centers is the laser hair removal center of choice for people living and working in New York City and surrounding areas. We would love to meet you and talk more about our laser hair removal offerings, including full legs laser and full body hair removal.

How Laser Hair Removal Can Positively Affect Your Health

We’ve been exploring some of the hidden perks and health benefits of laser hair removal. Our previous articles covered how hair removal laser treatment has a positive effect on your skin, saves you time and money when compared to shaving and waxing, and can improve your confidence and mental well-being. Today, we will look at some additional health benefits to consider.

Hygienic Advantages

Aside from the obvious cosmetic benefits, laser hair removal offers notable hygienic advantages as well. For many people, permanently reducing or completely removing hair reduces body odor. Hair acts as a magnet, trapping sweat and odor-causing bacteria. Eliminating this prime culprit ensures that you stay fresher and more confident throughout the day.

Additionally, maintaining personal hygiene becomes easier and more efficient when you’re no longer contending with unwanted hair. No more dealing with the hassle of shaving or waxing in those hard-to-reach areas. Laser hair removal grants you the convenience of smooth, hair-free skin, allowing you to effortlessly embrace your personal cleanliness with ease.

Areas prone to moisture or friction, such as underarms or the bikini line, are more susceptible to infections or other complications. Hair removal laser treatment minimizes the risk of these issues by reducing the ideal environment for bacteria to thrive, keeping these areas clean and healthy.

It’s clear that the benefits of laser hair removal go beyond mere aesthetic appeal. Whether its promoting skin health, improving confidence, or enhancing your overall well-being, hair removal laser treatment offers a multitude of perks and advantages. When it comes to permanent hair removal, Manhattan Laser Centers is the preferred laser hair removal center serving New York City and surrounding areas. We can perform hair removal laser treatment on single body areas (i.e. upper lip, chin, etc.) or take a more comprehensive approach (i.e. full legs laser, full body hair removal.)

Improved Confidence and Mental Well-Being

Laser hair removal offers a sense of freedom from the never-ending battle against unwanted hair. You’ll no longer worry about constantly scheduling trips to the salon or fussing with time-consuming at-home maintenance to avoid the embarrassment that can come with hair growing in unwanted areas. The emotional stress associated with unsightly hair can affect our day-to-day lives. Thanks to hair removal laser treatment, you can bid farewell to those concerns and embrace the beauty of your skin.
