3 Reasons You Should Wait to Get Laser Hair Removal
If you have considered laser hair removal at some point in your life, for reasons of vanity, function, or presentation, you may have wondered, “Will this even work for me?” The answer is complex, but the answer is typically a resounding YES. Laser hair removal is the safest, fastest, and easiest way to permanently remove body hair. There are very few reasons to avoid laser hair removal, but each is minor and usually temporary. Here are three factors that may impede the success of your laser hair removal treatment:
Sun Damage
Burned skin cannot be treated with lasers until the areas of the sunburn have completely healed. Suntanned skin (by sunbathing or tanning beds) can also present an issue, which is why many choose to pursue laser hair removal in the fall and winter months when sun worshipping is mostly out of the question.
Certain Skin Types
Pigment problems, discoloration, and scarring can occur with some skin types, which is why it’s important to consult with a laser hair removal technician thoroughly before engaging in hair removal. Spot tests can typically reveal whether your skin type can benefit from laser hair removal and how it will react.
Consistency
Consistency is key when pursuing laser hair removal, as it typically demands at least a few consecutive treatments to remove all traces of unwanted hair. Plan ahead to consider whether you can keep up with a consistent schedule of treatments before you walk into your first appointment.
