We hope you are feeling amazingly smooth after your Laser Hair Removal session with My Wellness Solutions.
We want to help you in your hair loss journey and have included additional tips for you to follow during your laser hair removal process. If you haven’t scheduled your follow-up session, please do so quickly – consistency is key! 1 session every 6 to 8 weeks for a minimum of 6-8 sessions are recommended for you to receive the full benefits. Up to 12 sessions may be needed to achieve more than 90% hair reduction for some clients.
Pre-Laser Tips
- You must SHAVE the area(s) being treated before coming into your treatment 12-36 hours before your appointment. Failure to do so will result in your appointment being rescheduled.
- For the most effective treatment and to prevent burns, avoid the sun and spray tans 2 weeks before and after treatment. This applies to all sessions. Please bring a hat or covering during hot summer days.
- You MUST avoid bleaching, plucking or waxing hair for 4-6 weeks prior to treatment. The melanin-containing hair must be present in the follicle as it is the “target’ for the laser light.
- No exfoliation, scrubs or chemical peels for three days before and at least one weeks after treatment.
- If you have a history of cold sores or fever blisters (oral herpes simplex) or shingles (herpes zoster) near the treatment area, we recommend that you take an-viral medication on the day before, the day of and the day after treatment.
- RECENTLY TANNED SKIN CANNOT BE TREATED! If treated within 2 weeks of active (natural sunlight or tanning booth tanning, you may develop hypopigmentation (white spots) after treatment and this may not clear for 2-3 months or more.
- The use of self- tanning skin products must be discontinued one week before treatment. Any residual self-tanner should be removed prior to treatment.
- Avoid Re-tin-A, Retinol, Renova, Differin, Tretinoin, Metrogel, Tazorac, Avage, Hydroquinone, Tetracycline, Minocin or any antibiotics for at least three days prior to treatment and for at least two weeks afterward.
Post-Laser Tips
- Do not go home and take a hot shower, bath, or soak in a hot tub immediately after your treatment. Use cool water only.
- Do not work out for 24 hours post-treatment.
- To help your progress we suggest a week after your treatment you start exfoliating the area at least 2 times per week.
- Immediately after treatment, there might be redness and/or swelling of each hair follicle in the treatment site. The swelling may last up to 2 hours, or longer. The redness may last up to 2-3 days. The treated area might feel like sunburn for a few hours after treatment and can last 5-6 days.
- A topical soothing skin care product such as aloe vera gel can be used to soothe the skin.
- Makeup may be used immediately after the treatment as long as the skin is not irritated.
- Avoid sun exposure up to 2 weeks post treatment to reduce the chance of hyperpigmentation.
- Use a sunblock (SPF 30+) at all times throughout the course of treatment.
- Avoid picking or scratching the treated skin. Do not use any other hair removal treatment products or similar treatments (waxing, electrolysis or tweezing) that will disturb the hair follicle in the treatment area for 4-6 weeks. After the laser treatment is performed. Only Shaving may be used.
- Anywhere from 5-14 days after the treatment, shedding of the treated hair may occur and this appears as new hair growth. This is not new hair growth. You can clean and remove the hair by washing or wiping the area with a wet cloth or loofa sponge.
- After the axilla (underarms} is treated, you may wish to use a powder instead of a deodorant for 24 hours after the treatment to reduce skin irritation. There are no restrictions on bathing except to treat the skin gently, as if you had a sunburn, for the first 24 hours.
FAQ
Why is my hair growing back patchy?
Sometimes after treatment, it is normal for the treated area to look like there are intermittent spots that seem to look like they have been skipped over. The laser tech has not skipped over these areas. The hair is not growing all at the same
time. The stage of hair growth, called anagen, is most susceptible to laser energy and absorbs the energy more because it contains more pigment than the other surrounding hair, thus giving the impression of skipped spots.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
As per the FDA, we cannot claim, advertise, or guarantee that laser hair removal is permanent or that it will get rid of 100% of your hair. Laser hair removal rather is considered laser hair reduction. The reason behind this statement is that
hormone fluctuations or imbalances can cause the re-growth of unwanted hair.
We recommend getting a laser treatment every 6 months after you get your desired results in order to maintain them.
Is it true darker skin tones need more sessions?
Olive skins and darker skins require lower laser energy settings in order to safely remove the hair and not burn the skin. Darker skin types can typically require more treatments for hair reduction.
What do I do if I have a blister in the treated area?
If the treated area blisters (tiny fluid-filled sacs appear) please call us immediately at 212-882-1154, so that we can treat you immediately.
