Care Before the Laser Hair Removal Session
As we mentioned above, for the treatment to be as effective as possible, it is very important to go with clean skin. Therefore, do not recommend to use cosmetics in the treatment area. The same day of the appointment.
But, in addition, there are some cosmetic ingredients that we must avoid, especially in the days before:
Cosmetics That Contain Acids:
Any acid acts on the first layer of the skin, leaving it much more sensitive. Therefore, using cosmetics that contain this ingredient can cause laser hair removal to leave the area more irritated or reddened.
Deodorants:
The area of the armpits has a very delicate skin, and with a tendency to become irritated. Also, laser hair removal can make it more sensitive. Therefore, do not recommend to use deodorants in this area neither the day before the session, nor the day after.
Alcohol And Dyes:
Cosmetics containing these ingredients make the skin more sensitive, making it unsuitable for laser hair removal. As a result, it is preferable to avoid them.
However, on the positive side, we find ingredients that are very beneficial, such as pure aloe vera, which allows the skin to be more hydrated and nourished, preventing it from suffering irritation and redness during the laser hair removal session.
