What to Expect Right After Treatment

Following your laser hair removal session, it’s completely normal to experience some redness, mild swelling, or a sunburn-like sensation. This typically fades within a few hours to a day. Applying a cool compress or a calming gel like aloe vera can help soothe the treated area.

Activities to Avoid for Faster Healing

For the first 24 to 48 hours, it’s important to avoid anything that exposes your skin to heat or friction. Skip hot showers, intense workouts, saunas, and steam rooms. These can increase irritation and slow down your recovery.

Stay Protected from the Sun

Your skin becomes more sensitive to UV rays after laser treatment. To avoid dark spots or skin damage, avoid direct sun exposure for several days. If you do go outside, wear protective clothing and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.

Why You Should Avoid Waxing and Plucking

Laser hair removal works by targeting the root of the hair follicle. Waxing, plucking, or threading removes the root and interferes with the laser’s effectiveness. If you need to manage hair between sessions, shaving is the safest option.

Shedding Is a Good Sign

In the days and weeks following your session, you’ll notice treated hairs starting to shed. This is completely normal and shows that the treatment is working. Resist the urge to scrub or force the hair out—let the process happen naturally.

Long-Term Results from Laser Hair Removal Winnipeg

Achieving permanent hair reduction takes time. Most clients need six to eight sessions for full results, depending on the area, hair thickness, and skin type. With each session, you’ll notice less hair growth, finer texture, and smoother skin. At Cherry Skin and Laser, we provide personalized treatment plans to ensure optimal results for every client.
