So you have finally decided to take the plunge into laser hair removal. "What now?" you ask. To ensure you have a safe, quick and permanent removal solution, read on and find out the steps to take after a laser hair removal treatment.

Immediately after treatment

So you've just had the treatment done. What you can expect is the area treated may be sensitive, slightly red and swollen. This is a normal reaction and usually disappears within 2-12 hours. Application of chilled aloe vera gel onto the skin is recommended to aid in the healing and soothing of the skin. Also, if you're thinking of having a hot shower think again. Treated areas may be temperature sensitive so you should avoid use of strongly scented lotions or soaps, exfoliant creams & aggressive scrubbing to the treated area during the healing phase.

Four weeks after treatment

It is now 1-4 weeks later and there is an appearance of stubble. Remember this is not hair re-growth, but the treated hairs being purged from the follicle. Allow this hair to fall out of the skin on it’s own. Hairs that were in the rest phase at the treatment may enter the active phase in 1-6 months depending on the body. Follow-up treatment may be performed within 1-2 weeks of new hair growth.

Keeping a mental note of these useful tips will not only ensure a great hair removal experience, but a newfound confidence and positive attitude about your appearance.
