Shave the treatment area 12-24 hours before your appointment.
Skin must be clean and free of makeup, lotions, oils, deodorant, sunless tanning products, etc.

Mild redness and swelling of the hair follicles may occur which is normal. This will lessen with time. Avoid picking or scratching the skin. Cool cloths may be applied to the skin where is feels warm.
Avoid sun exposure for 7 days post treatment. Careful sun exposure of no more than 30 minutes may be resumed from days 7-14 post treatment with daily use of sunscreen (minimum SPF 30+).
Avoid tanning beds for 14 days post treatment.
Apply aloe vera to soothe any redness or sensitivity between days 1 - 3.
From day 5, use a body exfoliant 1 - 2 times per week. This will allow the hair follicles to loosen and assist with smoother feeling skin.
