-
Avoid sun exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning sessions for at least 2 weeks before your appointment. If sun exposure is unavoidable, use SPF 30+ sunscreen.
Shave the treatment area: Shave the area to be treated 24 to 48 hours before your session. This allows the laser to effectively target the hair follicles without interference from surface hair.
Avoid waxing or plucking: Do not wax, pluck, or use depilatory creams for 4 to 6 weeks before your treatment. The laser needs an intact hair follicle to be effective.
Do not apply cosmetic products: Avoid applying lotions, creams, deodorants, or makeup on the area to be treated on the day of your session.
Inform your technician: Let your technician know about any medications, skin conditions, or recent treatments that may affect your eligibility for laser hair removal.

Consultation: Before starting, your technician will review your medical history, discuss your goals, and assess your skin and hair type to customize the treatment.
Preparation: The treatment area will be cleaned, and a cooling gel may be applied to enhance comfort and protect your skin.
Laser application: The technician will use a handheld device to deliver laser pulses to the targeted areas. You may feel a slight tingling sensation, but most clients find it tolerable.
Safety measures: You and your technician will wear protective glasses to shield your eyes from the laser.
Post-treatment cooling: After the session, a soothing gel or cold compress may be applied to minimize any redness or discomfort.

Avoid sun exposure: Protect the treated area from the sun for at least 2 weeks. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily.
Avoid heat sources: Avoid hot baths, saunas, or steam rooms for 24 to 48 hours to prevent irritation.
Moisturize the skin: Keep the treated area hydrated with a gentle, fragrance-free cream to soothe your skin.
Do not scratch or touch: If redness or mild swelling occurs, allow it to resolve naturally. Avoid scratching or touching the area.
Exfoliate gently: After a few days, gently exfoliate the area to help remove dead hair as the follicles shed.
Follow-up appointments: Adhere to the recommended schedule for your sessions to achieve the best results.
