Diode laser hair removal significantly reduces hair growth. It typically requires multiple sessions (6-10) to achieve optimal results. After completing the full treatment, you can expect a 70-90% reduction in hair growth. Sessions are ideally spaced 6-8 weeks apart to effectively target hair growth. Keeping to this timeline helps ensure optimal outcomes and smooth, hair-free skin.

The results can last months or even years, but periodic maintenance sessions may be needed since some hair follicles can regenerate over time.

• Shave treatment area 24 hours before your session: do not wax, pluck, or use depilatory creams

• Keep the skin surface clean and free: from products such as deodorant, makeup, moisturizer or any other products during laser hair removal

• Stop using retinoids, acids, and strong skincare products: one week before treatment and no chemical exfoliation

• Avoid sun exposure & tanning: for at least one week before treatment

• Avoid blood-thinning medications, topical treatments, antibiotics, or undergo photosensitizing skin treatments: unless okay by a doctor to use while doing laser

• Sun Protection: Stay out of the sun & use SPF 30+ for at least 2 weeks, as the skin will be more sensitive ☀️

• Hydrate: Moisturize with a gentle, fragrance-free lotion💧

• Skip Heat: Avoid hot tubs, saunas, & hot showers for 48 hours 🚫

• No Scrubbing: Refrain from exfoliating for a week 🧼

• Exfoliate gently: after 5-7 days to help shed dead hair follicles

• Gentle Touch: Don’t pick or scratch the treated area 🚫

• Mild Products: Use non-irritating skincare products🧴

• Face Makeup: Avoid makeup for 24-48 hours if treated on the face 🎨

• Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water 💦

Proper shaving is key when prepping for laser hair removal! 🪒✨

Remember, a clean shave means smoother, more effective results! Shaving beforehand ensures the laser can work its magic and give you the smooth, long-lasting results you’re after! ✨

To ensure the treatment works effectively, it’s important to shave 24 hours prior to your session. Shaving the night before allows the skin to calm down, reduces the chance of irritation, and ensures the laser can focus on the hair follicles for more effective results. 🙌

The laser works by emitting heat, and if your skin is irritated or freshly shaved, it can absorb that heat unevenly, increasing the risk of burns or discomfort. Shaving 24 hours before gives your skin enough time to heal and ensures the laser treatment is as safe and effective as possible!
