So that’s why many people are choosing laser hair removal to permanently get rid of unwanted hair. However, this is a laser treatment we are talking about here. While it’s nowhere near as invasive as surgery, some aftercare is still needed. So let’s get right into some key tips for a successful laser hair removal recovery.
Tips For Aftercare
Wear Loose Clothes
After treatment is completed, your skin will probably be red and irritated. It’s best to be mindful of ways to keep your skin from being irritated further with things like tight clothing that can rub against your skin. So when you’re headed to your appointment, it’s best to wear loose-fitting clothes that are made of a soft material.
Avoid Direct Sunlight
It’s best to avoid direct sunlight on treated areas for a while as the site heals. This is because the treated skin is much more sensitive to UV damage while healing. So plan to do things inside, in the shade, or wear loose clothing over the treated skin.
Avoid Hot Water
Cold and lukewarm water is totally fine to use on your skin after laser hair removal, but hot water could irritate your skin. So it’s best to take showers on low heat instead of your normal steamy ones. Also, avoid things like Jacuzzis or hot tubs.
