Essential Aftercare Tips for a Smooth Laser Hair Removal Experience

Principle of Operation

Utilising the selective absorption of light, the 808nm laser emitted by this device is absorbed by the abundant melanin within hair follicles and shafts. This conversion of light energy into heat causes the dermal papilla to shrink and necrotise, thereby ceasing its supply of nutrients to the hair follicle matrix. Consequently, the follicle loses its growth activity, achieving permanent hair removal

Laser hair removal, especially with advanced devices like the 808nm Diode Laser Hair Removal Machine, is favored for its fast treatment speed, high efficacy on various skin tones, and minimal discomfort—thanks to its optimal wavelength that targets hair follicles precisely without damaging surrounding skin. While it offers long-lasting smoothness, proper aftercare is key to maximizing these advantages and minimizing post-treatment sensitivity. 

Here are essential tips to follow post-treatment:

First:prioritize gentle cleansing. For the first 24-48 hours, avoid hot water;Clean with lukewarm or slightly cool water; do not use chemical cleansers or skincare products. Pat dry gently instead of rubbing, as the skin may be sensitive after exposure to the 808nm Diode Laser Hair Removal Machine’s energy.

Step two: Apply sunscreen.Sun protection is non-negotiable. Treated skin becomes highly photosensitive. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen daily, and reapply every 2-3 hours when outdoors. Wear hats or clothing that covers the area to shield it from direct sunlight for at least two weeks.

Step Three:Moisturize regularly to soothe and hydrate. Opt for alcohol-free, hypoallergenic moisturizers to prevent irritation. Avoid heavy creams or products with harsh ingredients like retinol, glycolic acid, or fragrances, which can exacerbate sensitivity.

Step Four: Maintain a light diet for one week, avoiding spicy foods, seafood, irritants, and photosensitising foods. Consuming pungent stimulants (such as chilli peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, ginger), high-sugar items (e.g., milk tea, cakes), high-fat foods (e.g., fried items, fatty meats), or alcoholic beverages during this period may: prolong the resolution of inflammation. Redness and swelling that might normally subside within 1-2 days could persist for 3-5 days, potentially extending the overall period of skin sensitivity.

Step Five: If the treated area appears particularly red after treatment, apply ice promptly to reduce redness. Avoid using any other hair removal methods for one month following laser hair removal.

By following these simple yet effective aftercare steps, you’ll ensure a comfortable recovery.There are just three numbers you need to remember when it comes to getting gorgeous hair-free skin: 808.
