Laser Hair Removal & Post-Treatment Skincare Insights
At Chester Skin & Wellness in Chester Township, NJ, we understand that laser hair removal is more than just a solution for unwanted hair—it’s a skincare journey. Under the expert care of Dr. Deborah Petrowsky, we take a comprehensive approach to ensure your skin stays healthy and radiant throughout the process.
One common question we hear from patients is whether laser hair removal impacts the skin’s natural oil production or sebum balance. The good news is that while laser treatments target hair follicles, they generally do not interfere with sebaceous glands. However, because the skin in the treated areas may become temporarily more sensitive or dry—especially in zones like the underarms, face, or bikini line—proper aftercare is essential.
To maintain optimal skin balance post-treatment, we recommend using a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer and avoiding harsh exfoliants for at least 48 hours. It’s also important to apply broad-spectrum SPF daily, as freshly treated skin may be more vulnerable to UV damage. For facial areas, stick to lightweight, oil-free products that won’t clog pores.
Our team will guide you through a personalized post-laser skincare plan that matches your skin type and treatment area. Smooth skin starts with smart care—book your consultation today to learn more.
