Pre-Treatment Instructions for DiolazeXL Laser Hair Removal
Before Your Laser Hair Removal Appointment in Twin Falls, ID
Before your laser hair removal appointment:
- Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your session. This is essential for safety and effectiveness
- Do not wax, pluck, thread, or use epilators for at least 2 weeks prior (these remove the follicle and reduce effectiveness)
- Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanner for 2 weeks
- Arrive with clean, product-free skin. Wash with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser and lukewarm water
- Do not apply lotion, perfume, deodorant, or oils on the treatment area
Post-Treatment Care for Laser Hair Removal
After DiolazeXL Treatment in Twin Falls, ID
After DiolazeXL, it is normal to experience mild redness or warmth similar to a light sunburn. Proper aftercare helps soothe the skin and supports optimal hair reduction results.
What to Do
- Cleanse with mild, fragrance-free cleansers and lukewarm water, then gently pat dry
- Apply aloe vera or a soothing moisturizer to calm the skin
- Use broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily on exposed areas and wear protective clothing
- Stay cool. Use wrapped cool compresses or ice packs to reduce redness
- Drink plenty of water to support skin hydration
- Wear loose-fitting clothing over the treated area
What to Avoid
- Do not pick, scratch, or scrub the skin. Let any irritation heal naturally
- Avoid harsh skincare products including retinols, glycolic acid, strong soaps, and scented lotions
- Avoid heavy makeup on the treated area for several days to allow skin to breathe
- Skip hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs, and intense workouts for 48 to 72 hours
- Avoid sun exposure until skin is fully calm
- Do not wax, pluck, tweeze, or use depilatory creams between sessions. Shaving is acceptable
Shedding Phase
Treated hair will gradually shed over 1 to 3 weeks. This is a normal part of the laser hair removal process as the follicles release the damaged hair.
