How to Prepare for Your First Laser Treatment

Preparing is essential to ensure the best results if you’re considering laser hair removal at our laser center and spa. At Premier Spa and Laser Center, a Delaware med spa, we want to help you get ready for your first treatment. First, however, remember a few things before your appointment. Considering these things and thoroughly preparing will ensure a positive laser experience and results.

Stop Waxing and Plucking

Stop waxing and plucking your hair at least four weeks before your first laser treatment so your hair has time to grow back. This is because laser hair removal targets the root of the hair, and plucking and waxing do the same. With that in mind, avoid waxing or plucking your hair to ensure positive results from your laser treatment.

Shave at Least 24-48 Hours Before

In comparison, shaving doesn’t touch the root of the hair, like waxing and plucking. With this in mind, clients should shave their targeted area before laser hair removal. For laser hair removal to provide the best result, the hair root needs to be there, and shaving ensures just that.

Take Into Account Certain Medications

When you meet with our professionals at our Delaware med spa regarding laser hair removal, they must know every medication you take. Some medicines can intervene with the treatment, and no one wants that! On the other hand, medications can make your skin more sensitive or make the treatment less effective. With this in mind, please discuss your medications with your provider at your consultation.

Completely Clean Your Skin

Before your appointment at our spa Newark Delaware, please ensure your skin is clean of all dirt, oil, deodorants, lotions, and makeup. We want your skin to be completely clean before laser hair removal. Ensure your skin is freshly clean before coming in to provide a positive experience and results.
