Post-Laser Hair Removal Skin Care: 7 Steps You Must Take for Your Beauty
Laser hair removal is one of the most effective and permanent ways to get rid of unwanted hair. However, the care applied afterwards is just as important as the success of the procedure itself. As Estetouch, we have compiled the essential steps you should take after laser hair removal to protect your skin’s health and achieve the best results.
1. Avoid Direct Sun Exposure
Avoiding sunlight for the first 48 hours prevents skin sensitivity. If you need to go outside, you must use a high-factor sunscreen (SPF 50+).
2. Cleanse Your Skin Gently
Wash the treated area only with lukewarm water on the first day after the application. Avoid irritating products such as soap, shower gel, or peeling scrubs.
3. Do Not Neglect Moisturization
Dryness and slight tightness may occur on the skin after the laser treatment. Regularly moisturizing your skin with a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizer speeds up the recovery process.
4. Stay Away from Hot Environments
You should avoid environments such as Turkish baths (hamam), saunas, hot showers, and steam rooms for a few days following the application. Otherwise, the risk of irritation or infection may increase.
5. Shave, Do Not Pluck the Hair
Plucking the emerging hair from the root after the laser reduces the effectiveness of the treatment. It is recommended to only use a razor during this period.
6. Redness and Edema are Normal
Slight redness and swelling may occur after the procedure. These usually subside within a few hours. You can apply a cold compress to provide relief.
7. Stay in Contact with Your Specialist
Every skin is different. If you observe any unusual reactions (such as crusting, excessive itching, or a burning sensation), consult your specialist immediately.
