Can I shave between laser hair removal sessions?
Yes, shaving is allowed and encouraged between sessions. Avoid waxing or plucking, as they remove the hair root needed for laser targeting.
Do I need to stop using skincare products before treatment?
Avoid retinoids, glycolic acid, and exfoliating products for 3–5 days before your session. These can make your skin more sensitive to the laser.
Does laser hair removal work better on certain parts of the body?
Yes, areas with dense, coarse hair like the underarms, bikini, and legs often respond faster than areas with fine or light hair like the face or arms.
What if I have a low pain tolerance?
Let your provider know—they can adjust the laser intensity or apply a numbing cream for added comfort, especially in sensitive areas.
