WHAT SHOULD YOU DO AFTER LASER HAIR REMOVAL in Bangkok?
Patients who had done any laser treatment are encouraged to avoid sun exposure for at least 1 week after the treatment even if it's just laser hair removal. The use of sunscreen especially on the area that was treated is highly recommended even after this 1 week period.
After laser hair removal, patients are also advised to just wash the area with mild soap and water, no scrubbing, and no scented soap. Since the growth cycle of hair varies, you may natice that hair growth is still the same after your first and 2nd treatment, but this does not mean laser hair removal is not working well, it is actually normal for hair to grow as they normally do after just 1 or 2 sessions of laser hair removal in Bangkok.
Darkening and pigmentation is a possible effect of laser treatments but this rarely happens. Other patients don’t respond well to laser treatments so we cannot promise a perfect result but if you had an experience with laser treatment for the same concerns before, just please inform your dermatologist along with the result you’ve achieve so they will know which treatment to recommend for you.
