Laser hair removal is a game-changer for smooth, low-maintenance skin—but what does it mean for your skin’s natural barrier and moisture levels? At Chester Skin & Wellness in Chester Township, NJ, Dr. Deborah Petrowsky provides expert laser hair removal treatments with a strong focus on post-treatment skin health, including hydration and barrier protection.
While laser energy is highly targeted toward hair follicles, it can cause temporary disruption to the skin’s outer layer, especially in sensitive areas like the bikini line, underarms, or face. This can lead to a short period of dryness or increased water loss if not properly addressed.
Dr. Petrowsky ensures your skin stays resilient and comfortable by offering personalized hydration strategies after each session.
-Recommend fragrance-free, ceramide-rich moisturizers immediately after treatment
-Encourage the use of hyaluronic acid serums to draw moisture into the skin
-Advise against hot showers or exfoliation for 24–48 hours
-Apply cool compresses or aloe vera gel to soothe and calm treated areas
-Suggest drinking extra water to support skin hydration from within
-Protect the skin from UV exposure with mineral sunscreen
-Avoid active ingredients like retinol until the skin fully recovers
At Chester Skin & Wellness, smooth skin isn’t the only goal—healthy, hydrated skin is just as important. Let Dr. Petrowsky guide you to lasting results that feel as good as they look.
