Here’s how to prepare for your laser hair removal sessions
- Shave! It’s essential to shave the area you’re getting lasered before your appointment. We recommend shaving the night before.
- We recommend that you exfoliate the skin the day before treatment. This will remove dead skin and prevent ingrown hairs.
- Avoid UV exposure for four weeks before your appointment; that includes tanning, tanning beds, and tanning/bronzing creams. Avoid UV exposure during the treatment period up to six weeks following your last treatment.
- Avoid irritant topical agents for 2-3 days before treatment.
- Avoid anticoagulants (blood thinners) for 7-10 days prior to treatment, if medically permitted.
- Avoid taking a LONG bath or shower immediately prior to treatment. A refresher wipe is provided.
- Avoid pools (saltwater and chlorinated) / hot tubs
- An oil-based moisturizer should not be used the day of the treatment.
- Wear loose clothing if possible.
- Avoid perfumes on the day of treatment and leave your metal jewelry and accessories at home.
- Arrive 10-15 minutes early to complete our health intake form.
