Summer is the season when we reveal more of our body, and the need for a permanent hair removal solution becomes more important than ever. However, many people hesitate to start or continue laser hair removal treatments during the summer months due to concerns about sun exposure and possible side effects.
But is laser hair removal really prohibited in the summer, or have we fallen victim to misinformation?
Let’s take a look at what actually applies!
IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL FORBIDDEN IN THE SUMMER?
Modern laser technology, like the one used at Laserderm, allows treatments to be carried out even during the summer months, as long as the proper precautions are followed.
The skin should not be heavily tanned, and direct sun exposure should generally be avoided for 5 to 7 days before and after each session. At the same time, proper use of sunscreen is essential in our daily routine in any case!
Finally, choosing the right timing between a session and your vacation is key. Even if holidays or tanning occur in between, the hair removal schedule is not “lost.” With a short break, you can resume once the skin returns to its natural tone.
IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD BE CAREFUL ABOUT BEFORE ALEXANDRITE LASER HAIR REMOVAL?
Regardless of the season, it’s important to follow some basic guidelines before and after hair removal sessions.
Before hair removal:
• Stop any other hair removal methods 2–3 weeks before your first session
• Shave the treatment area 3–4 days before the session
• Remove makeup before laser application on the face
After hair removal:
• Avoid direct sun exposure and consistently use high-protection sunscreen
• Use a restorative cream to prevent dryness
• Avoid solarium or other artificial tanning methods
