By Mark Ward


There is only one thing that is known to help permanently reduce the amount of unwelcome hairs on the body and face, and that's laser treatment. Once you have undergone all of the suggested sessions, you no longer have to worry about them for eternity. However, there are some really important matters that you should keep in your mind before going to a laser hair center Plano provides for the first time. To learn how you should gear up for your initial treatment, don't stop reading now.

Avoid unnecessary sun exposure. The preparation for a session begins at least 1 month before the grand day. Experts say that you should start staying away from the sun because it's important for you to drop by the clinic with the least amount of melanin in your skin. Make sure that you apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 before you step foot outside your home to keep excessive melanin production at bay.

Avoid any form of tanning. It goes without saying that you should avoid sunbathing, too, for a month or more before a session. Likewise, you should refrain from using of a tanning lamp or bed. Even the use of indoor tanning lotions, foams or creams has to be dodged a few weeks before you pay the clinic a visit.

Do not get a wax at the beauty salon. It's really important for those hair follicles of yours to be around while you are having a laser treatment. It's for the fact that they're the ones that those intense light beams seek out and damage. Without any follicle around, a session will bring no positive results. In addition, the light beams will surely be absorbed by melanin present in your skin, causing you to experience lots of discomfort.

Do not bleach unwanted hairs, too. Experts say you should also refrain from bleaching. Otherwise, a session won't bring anything favorable, which is basically money down the drain.

Go ahead and shave as often as you like. The good news is the use of a razor is very much permissible, thus letting you get rid of excess hairs in the bikini area, armpits, legs and elsewhere. Actually, on the day of your treatment you will have to shave to obtain superb results. If your skin is sensitive, however, shave a day in advance. This is done to give the skin the time it needs to recover from irritation.

Have a shower and exfoliate, too. Before going to the clinic, take a shower. You have to free your skin of any grime, dirt and lots of oils. In the shower reach for a loofah or a coarse face towel and exfoliate gently all over. Going to the clinic with those excess dead skin cells removed lets you obtain much better results.

Do not apply anything after showering. Refrain from putting any beauty product on the skin once you're through showering. This is most especially true on areas of the face and body that will get treated. The application of your favorite cologne, deodorant, makeup, sunscreen, moisturizer and others should be skipped for the moment.
