1. Prior to your laser hair removal treatment:

  • Wear loose and comfortable clothing for your appointment.

  • Please come free of deodorant, fake tan, makeup or any creams in the area. Having
    any product in the area could cause an adverse reaction.

  • For your patch test and consultation, please come with a few days hair growth to
    help me assess your hair.

  • When beginning your treatment sessions, please come freshly shaved from the
    morning of. Any unshaved area may mean your treatment is cancelled and you may
    still be charged.

  • Please avoid sunbeds or tanning, retinols or AHAs, at least 2 weeks prior your
    appointment.

  • Avoid exfoliating the area for at least 4-5 days post treatment.

  • Avoid the use of makeup, creams or deodorant in the area for 48 hours.

  • No waxing, tweezing or threading, for the duration of the treatment course.

​

3. Good practice after your laser hair removal session

  • Drink plenty of water.

  • Always wear SPF 50.

  • Keep the treated area clean and dry for 48 hours.

  • Wear loose comfortable clothing on the treated area to avoid friction for 48 hours.

  • If your skin feels a bit warm after your treatment, you can use a cool ice pack to help reduce irritation or aloe vera gel.
