Preparing for Laser Hair Removal
There are a few things you can do to make your laser hair removal appointment successful. First, avoid excessive sun exposure in the weeks leading up to your appointment. You should also avoid waxing the area. However, you should plan to shave the area 2 days before your appointment so that there is small stubble when you come in.
What Happens During Laser Hair Removal
The treatment area will be cleansed and prepped and then the provider will use a handheld laser device to deliver light pulses to the hair follicles. The length of each session depends on the size of the treatment area. Smaller areas can take just a few minutes, while larger areas may take up to an hour.
Results and Recovery After Laser Hair Removal
Immediately after treatment, you may experience some temporary redness and swelling. Over the next few weeks, the treated hairs will fall out as the follicles are destroyed. For optimal results, 6-8 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, are necessary to treat all phases of the hair growth cycle.
