Title: FFS/ Laser Hair Removal
Post by: Jandy on August 30, 2017, 12:46:37 PM
Hey :)

I wondered what the rules were regarding surgery and laser hair removal, My surgery is booked in for October 10th, I am due to have my next session of laser hair removal on September 4th, then again on October 4th, is this too close to my surgery ? I read somewhere that you should avoid laser at least 2 weeks before surgery as it can weaken the skin or something ?

I have asked my surgeon for advice but still awaiting a response and though that someone may know.

Thanks . x

I don't think it should be a problem, unless your skin stays sore/red for days after the treatment. My skin goes back to normal within 24 hours of having laser. But everyone's different.
