As much as we love last minute glow ups… ☝️this is one treatment that needs a little planning ahead.
works by targeting pigment in the hair follicle, which means sun exposure, tanning, and beach trips right after treatment can increase skin sensitivity and compromise results.☀️For optimal safety and effectiveness, we recommend avoiding sun exposure before treatment and limiting it for 1–2 weeks afterward.

Here’s how to prep for your appointment & protect your results 👇
🪒 Shave before your appointment — don’t wax or pluck.
Laser targets the hair follicle. Waxing or plucking removes the follicle, meaning the treatment has nothing to target.
🧴 Skip self tanner and harsh skincare.
Avoid self-tanners, retinoids, strong exfoliants, and active acids in the days surrounding treatment to reduce the chance of skin irritation.
🏖 Protect your skin after treatment.
Avoid direct sun, hot tubs, intense workouts, and excessive heat for at least 24–48 hours, and wear SPF daily to protect treated skin.
