Preparation for Laser Hair Removal 


The preparation of laser hair removal is a detailed process that starts with finding an experienced and the best laser treatment provider. Regarding this, one can visit a skin clinic. The clinic must be fully facilitated with the latest laser techniques, equipment and trained staff. 


Once you find the best clinic and the laser expert, the schedule of a consultation session is advised. During that discussion session, the client must disclose the desire for unwanted hair removal using a laser. Based on this, the doctor will evaluate the candidate’s overall health, medical history, skin tone, texture, and wavelength of the hair. Based on the examination, laser experts may mark an upcoming date for laser hair removal. Until then, candidates are advised to follow certain instructions and prepare for the session.   


  1. Avoid Sun Exposure:

Before the laser hair removal session starts, candidates must protect the treatment body part from sun exposure. This is because lasers work best on untanned skin. Moreover, untanned skin requires less number of laser sessions. Hence, it is advised to stop going out in the extreme sunlight; if necessary, use sunscreen and cotton cloth to cover the skin. After coming home, clean the body using soap, water, and rose water.


  1. Shave or Trim the Hair

Before the session starts, the candidate is advised to trim or shave the hairs from that body part. It will help the laser to penetrate the dermal layer and target the hair follicles. To trim the unwanted hairs, razors or scissors are only advised. 


  1. Avoid Wax and Plucking

One should be advised to stop waxing or plucking unwanted hairs from the targeted body part. This is because these methods extract the hairs from the root, and using a laser after plucking the hair follicle makes it impossible to give the desired results. So, to get long-lasting hair-free skin, avoiding waxing and plucking of hair is advised.


  1. Increase the Water Intake.

The candidate getting ready for laser hair removal is advised to improve the water intake. It will help the laser give better results, and the skin responds well after the session. In addition to increasing the water intake, one can have juicy fruits and milk in the liquid diet. But here, it is noted that alcohol is prohibited when any medical expert talks about boosting the liquid diet. 


5. Stop Using Blood Thinning Medications


Certain medications like blood thinning tablets are also prohibited while preparing for a laser hair removal session.
