Are there any precautions I should take after laser hair removal?


In general, a common sense approach is all that is required. Some of the dos and don’ts include the following:


Do not participate in any strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours


Avoid sun exposure for 3-6 weeks. When going out, a sunscreen should be applied


Avoid tanning for at least 4-6 weeks otherwise you will develop  permanent skin discoloration


Avoid waxing, shaving or plucking hair from the treated site for several days


Keep the skin area clean and moisturized


If you cannot follow these simple instructions, then you should not undergo laser hair removal
