We’ll ask you to shave the day before your appointment and to come in wearing loose, comfortable clothes. On the day of, please avoid applying any lotions or other topical products to the treatment area. If necessary, we’ll offer you a wipe so you can freshen up before we start.
Once we’re ready to start, your technician or nurse will draw a grid over the area, to mark where they’ll be lasering and to make sure she doesn’t miss any spots. Then, the treatment will start! Working over the skin, the technician will zap each quadrant with a series of pulses. She’ll work methodically until the entire area has been treated.
Finally, we’ll give you a bit of gel to soothe the skin, and you’ll be ready to continue with your day. It’s a quick treatment that you can do during your lunchtime since there’s no downtime. Your skin might be a little red and irritated, which is normal, but the irritation should subside.
