LASER body hair reduction treatment is the go-to solution for men and women alike who want to get rid of their body hair quickly, safely and efficiently. With that stated, there are certain steps that one has to take right after getting this treatment. What are those post-treatment steps?
Well, according to the experts at Therapie Clinic the leading skin clinic in the UK, post-treatment care consists of the following steps:-
Steer Clear From The Sun – For A While!
Your skin has just been treated using short pulses of high-energy LASER beams hence; it is natural for the treated areas to be a bit sensitive to the touch. This is why you should make sure that the treated areas of your skin are not exposed to the sun’s rays as the UV radiation in sunlight will harm your skin. Furthermore, right after LASER hair removal, avoid taking a trip to the beach or your favourite tanning parlour.
Don’t Apply Cosmetic Products To The Treated Area(s)
Experts at Therapie Clinic also recommend their clients who just received the LASER body hair reduction treatment refrain from applying cosmetic products on the treated areas, at least for a day. The reason is simple – cosmetic products contain a lot of artificial ingredients. These chemical-based ingredients can react with the sensitive skin in the treated areas of your body that would result in skin irritations.
Be Sure To Take Cold Showers
Taking cold showers at least for a day after receiving this treatment is highly recommended by dermatologists. Hot water can leave the treated areas of your skin with a burning sensation. Furthermore, hot water can also cause burns and blisters in the treated areas of your skin – you don’t want that to happen now, do you?
Exfoliation Is Your Skin’s Friend
LASER body hair reduction treatment is efficient and the reason is simple- The high-intensity LASER pulses penetrate deep into the target areas of your skin in a bid to deactivate the body hair strand production process of hair follicles. Hence, it is natural for the treated areas of your skin to start shedding dead body hair strands.
The shedding process begins a day after you received the treatment. During the shedding process, experts and revered dermatologists recommend light exfoliation of the treated areas. The light exfoliation of the treated areas should be carried on for at least four weeks, after the treatment. Make sure you use a soft cotton towel and a mild body wash to exfoliate the treated area(s).

As per the experts at Therapie Clinic – the best place to get LASER body hair reduction treatment in the UK, one must follow the aftercare recommendations mentioned in the above sections for the best results. For more details, consulting with the experts and avoiding home remedies is the way of the wise.
