Laser Hair Removal Recovery Tampa Florida
After your treatments are done, the normal response should be a little bit pink and more of a razor burn look, the hairs, right around the hairs get a little bit red, perifolliculitis is what it is called and it is a very normal response. That means that the bulb of that follicle has been completely treated and the body is responding to that, so that is a good thing to see. That lasts maybe an hour, sometimes though it lasts till the end of that day depending on how coarse that hair was, but there is no burning, there is no longstanding irritation and patients are very happy that they can go out, put makeup on and get on with their life.
Different parts of the body take different amounts of time for those hairs to fall out after the treatment. We do not recommend that patients try to tweeze or wax out the hairs. During the treatment unlike electrolysis we ask that patients do not mess with the hair because it has been damaged all the way down therefore making it brittle. If you try to tweeze that out you could break it off and end up causing a bad irritation or infection. We want the body to naturally exfoliate those hair follicles out and they could take anywhere from 5 to 7 days to two weeks depending on where on the body.
