Protecting the skin from the sun.
Protect your skin from the sun before, during, and after your sessions with pulsed light. Indeed, UV radiations are the cause of tanning, which is characterised by a higher rate of melanin on the skin's surface. Tanning then risks attracting the pulsed light to your skin rather than the hairs, potentially causing discomfort or even a burn. If you cannot avoid sun exposure, use a sun care product on the face and body with a high protection factor, ensuring to cover the areas to be treated.
Shave before the sessions.
It is recommended to shave the hair on the area to be treated one to two days before the session to promote light absorption. In this way, the pulsed light can directly reach the hair roots, which allows for quick results.
Allowing the skin to "breathe".
Wait a few days after the session before applying any type of care product, such as deodorant or makeup, in order not to further sensitise the skin.
Adhere to the established programme.
It is strongly recommended to adhere to the prescribed session schedule and not to hasten the process. Indeed, closely spaced sessions will not accelerate the results. Similarly, sessions that are too far apart will not yield effective results, as you risk missing the hair growth phase. During this phase, hairs are particularly receptive to pulsed light due to the maximum concentration of melanin.
