5 THINGS YOU SHOULD DO BEFORE YOUR LASER HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT

At Elite Laser Aesthetics we are committed to providing you treatments with the best possible outcomes. To ensure you achieve maximum results it’s advisable to follow the pre/post treatment protocols to always ensure your safety, benefit and to prevent any complications.

PRE-TREATMENT PROTOCOL 

1. Trim hair at least 3-4 days prior to your treatment. 

2. Skin must be clean, not damaged or sun burnt. If sun burnt or extreme sun exposure, wait for 3 weeks before resuming treatment. 

3. You may apply numbing cream 1 hour before arriving for your appointment if you intend on treating a sensitive area like bikini or underarms. Area must be covered with cling wrap, avoid placing fabric over the area since this will absorb the numbing cream. At Elite Laser Aesthetics performs Laser Hair Removal with the Cynosure Apogee Elite laser which is the Gold Standard in laser technology. The Cynosure in conjunction with the Zimmer Cryo 6 cooling system ensures you will stay comfortable during your session.

4. Avoid any other form of removal of hair once you start laser treatment.

5. Ensure that the salon you are going to uses FDA approved laser devices, if it is safe to treat all skin types and find out if they are registered with SAHPRA.
