Preparing for Your Laser Hair Removal Appointment

It is also important to avoid plucking, waxing, or using a depilatory cream for at least six weeks before the procedure. This will ensure that enough pigment is present in the hair follicles for the laser to target. You should also avoid direct sun exposure for at least two weeks before the procedure. injection can also help with the longevity of the treatment. There may also be mild discomfort while chewing for the first few days following your injections.
