Galantha and Alyssa--

Good points.  Tweezing afterwards wouldn't matter so much.  The don't do that was directed more at waxing which I've been told not to do since it can really irritate the treated area.  Should have been more clear.  Sorry.

So ... I just asked my laser tech today, and she suggested I don't tweeze, even after, to just let the follicles die and the hair fall out without disturbing the skin any more. I did a little after the last session, but I guess I'll just be patient this time.
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.

I was pretty much told the same thing, but honestly, if it hasn't affected your skin or whatever, I don't know that I'd worry much.  I always avoided messing with my skin too much, but I also had a lot of problems if I tried to shave too early, etc.

Waxing does irratate the skin massivily.  However, my allergic reaction is worse then waxing in my viewpoint.  I need to go to bed, but if you want more information on the effectiveness of waxing post laser let me know.
