LASER HAIR REMOVAL FAQs
Everything you need to know before and after your laser hair removal treatment at HELA Skincare Center.
-
Shave the treatment area approximately 24 hours before your appointment. Arrive with clean, dry skin, free of lotions, oils, deodorant, or makeup. Let your HELA specialist know about any medications, recent skin treatments, or skin concerns.
-
Avoid tanning and excessive sun exposure for at least 2–3 weeks before treatment, or longer if advised. Pause retinoids, exfoliating acids, and other irritating skincare products on the treatment area for approximately 3 days before your appointment.
-
No. Avoid waxing, tweezing, threading, sugaring, and electrolysis throughout your treatment series, as these methods remove hair from the follicle. Shaving and trimming are okay between sessions.
-
Mild redness, warmth, or swelling around the hair follicles is common and usually temporary. A cool compress may help soothe the area. Contact HELA if you experience blistering, significant swelling, worsening irritation, or other unusual reactions.
-
Avoid hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs, and intense workouts for approximately 24 hours. Skip scrubs, exfoliating products, and harsh skincare for at least 3 days, or until your skin feels calm.
-
Keep the treated area clean, gently moisturized, and protected from the sun. Apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ to exposed areas daily, avoid tanning, and minimize direct sun exposure throughout your treatment series.
-
Treated hairs typically begin shedding over the following 1–3 weeks. They may appear to keep growing before gradually falling out. This is a normal part of the process. Avoid plucking or waxing and allow the hair to shed naturally.
-
Sessions are commonly scheduled around 4 weeks apart for facial areas and 6–8 weeks apart for body areas, depending on the treatment area, hair growth cycle, and individual response. Your HELA specialist will recommend a personalized treatment schedule.
