How to Shorten Hair Before Laser Epilation?
For laser epilation to be effective, the hair must be shortened correctly. Here are the things you need to pay attention to:
1. Razor Use is a Must!
✅ Remove your hair with a razor 1 day before the procedure (24 hours before).
✅ The razor only cuts the hair from the surface and protects the hair roots. This allows the laser beams to reach the root.
❌ Do not use wax, tweezers, epilator, hair removal cream! Because these methods destroy the hair roots and reduce the effect of the laser.
2. In Which Areas Should the Razor Be Used?
???? Legs, arms, armpits and bikini area: It should be completely removed with a razor.
???? Face area: Razor is not recommended, hair is usually left uncut or shortened by a specialist before the laser session.
3. Be Careful Not to Irritate the Skin
Use a sharp and clean razor. Old razors can irritate the skin.
Use a lubricating gel or foam. Applying a razor to dry skin can cause irritation.
Do not apply a soothing moisturizer to the skin before the session. The skin should be completely clean and dry.
