Laser Hair Removal uses precise wavelengths that can focus on the melanin pigment and target it. These wavelengths are able to focus on the pigment while avoiding damage to the surrounding skin. When laser treatments first started, the lasers used on that time, did not have a great ability to focus wavelengths and, the darker your skin, the harder it was to remove the hair and the concept of avoiding laser in summer has its origin in that. While laser technology has advanced significantly, the newer generation of lasers can target body hair very effectively without affecting the surrounding skin. It means that you can certainly get laser hair removal during summer, while doing your best to avoid sun exposure generally.
The most important advice, to avoid unpleasant hyper-pigmentation, burns and even permanent damages to your skin is “AVOIDING THE SUN!”
Avoid any laser treatment with unapproved laser machines (FDA, CSA,…). The laser machines with a weak control on the laser beam intensity, frequency, pulsation and characteristics are too dangerous for your skin health. Do not test and try an uncertified machine on your skin! We only utilize FDA/CSA approved equipment and a material such as SOPRANO ICE laser technology.
Laser Hair Removal Pre Treatment Care
We do not encourage you to run outside and start soaking in the rays. If you are planning to get laser hair removal, here are some tips to follow Laser Hair Removal in the summer:
- Avoid water-based activities such as swimming for the first 24-48 hours after treatment.
- Avoid direct sun exposure without protection to the treated area for two weeks prior to and after treatment.
- Wear sun protection daily; it should be at least SPF 30 with active ingredients like titanium dioxide and zinc.
- Resume your skin exfoliate 4 to 5 days after laser. This will allow your skin to recover long enough that there will be no irritation from enzymes or scrubs.
Do not forget that applying sunscreen with proper SPF, can protect your skin against harmful UVA and UVB rays. The sunscreen blocks ultraviolet light from damaging the skin. UVB causes sunburn, and UVA has more long-term damaging effects on the skin, like premature ageing. We, in Golden Pulse, are offering the best sunscreen products in the market, matching with your skin type and requirements.
