10 Things You Need To Know About Bikini Laser Hair Removal For Women

  1. Schedule a Consultation First The first thing that you will want to do is book your free consultation. This allows you to have all of your questions addressed, and also gives you a good idea as to what to expect from the procedure.   2. Consider Having a Test Patch Done First When you are having your consultation appointment, discuss the option of having a test patch treated. Testing in a smaller area will help to ensure that you don’t have issues over a larger area, in the event that you have a bad reaction to the lasers.   3. Go Ahead and Book Your Follow Up When making your appointment for your first session, go ahead and make a follow up appointment. Doing this helps to ensure that you stay on track with future sessions. If you aren’t going to be committed to the cause, don’t even get started.   4. Consider a Mild Over the Counter Pain Reliever The procedure can cause mild pain, so taking a pain reliever beforehand can make it more manageable. The pain, however, is not really severe.   5. Stay Out of the Tanning Bed Beforehand If you tan your skin ahead of time, then it will not usually be as receptive to the treatment. It can even cause scarring and pigmentation changes. Do not tan for up to 6 weeks before your procedure.   6. Avoid Any Sort of Caffeine the Day Of Avoiding caffeine is a good idea, because caffeine can make you a little more anxious. You will need to remain still and calm during the procedure.   7. Shave the Area Well Before Your Visit Before you go in for your visit, make sure that you shave the area well. Shaving helps to ensure that the follicles are still able to be seen, but the hairs won’t be in the way. The best time to do this is the day before.   8. Stay Away From Perfumed Products and Lotions Perfumed lotions and such can lead to irritation of the skin during and after the procedure. It is a good idea to avoid these. Use an all natural, fragrance free moisturizer on your skin after the procedure.   9. Wear Loose Fitting Clothing and Underwear The skin after the procedure will be more sensitive than usual. This is why it is a good idea to wear clothing that is loose fitting. Anything that fits too tight may cause further irritation to your skin.   10.
