The skin reaction after laser hair removal

  • The skin will more than likely be slightly pink or red after treatment. This is the skins response from the laser
  • The skin may appear bumpy and look like mild heat rash, this is where the heat is trying to escape from the follicle

These reactions are completely normal and should not be a cause for concern. They are temporary reactions and should subside within a day or so. You may apply a healing gel such as Arnica or Aloe Vera to cool the area. Some people may experience slight crusting of the area; if this occurs then you may apply petroleum jelly to keep the area moist.
