LASER REMOVAL AFTERCARE
Post-Treatment Skin Care
For 4–5 days following treatment, treat the area gently and avoid excessive rubbing. An appropriate antiseptic cream may be applied as advised during consultation to support healing.
Mild itching around a week after treatment can be normal. A soothing hydra-gel may be used to help relieve discomfort. Over the following 2–3 weeks, pigment reduction may become more noticeable.
Sun Protection
Sunscreen should be applied to treated areas, even on cloudy days. Sunbeds and self-tanning products should be avoided during the treatment course to support safe healing.
Make-Up
Make-up may be worn after treatment provided the skin surface remains intact.
Avoid Heat and Exercise
Heat treatments such as saunas or steam rooms, as well as vigorous exercise, should be avoided for at least 48 hours post-treatment, as increased body temperature can affect skin recovery.
