Recovery

It is very important that you follow the advice of your practitioner carefully following light treatment for hair removal to reduce the risk of complications. After laser/IPL hair removal treatment, you may experience:

* Swelling
* Red, pink, and sore skin
* A feeling like mild sunburn

You may be advised to apply an anesthetic cream to the area, avoid exposing yourself to the sun, and to wear a total sun block whenever you do. However, most people should be able to return to work and their normal activities immediately following the laser/IPL hair removal procedure. If you have any unwanted side effects such as blistering, pain, changes in skin pigment or infection, contact your treating clinic/salon immediately.
