Laser Hair Removal with the Soprano Titanium
Aftercare Instructions
Thank you for choosing the Soprano Titanium for your Laser Hair Removal treatment. This state-of-the-art system is designed to deliver effective, long-lasting results while minimising discomfort. To ensure the best outcome, please follow the guidelines below. Keep in mind that each person’s skin responds uniquely; if you have any specific concerns, consult us at The Doctors Laser Clinic. Please note, this advice applies to patients who have had a Soprano Titanium Laser hair removal treatment.
1. Immediate Post-Treatment Care
- Redness & Swelling You may notice slight redness, swelling, or warmth in the treated area—similar to a mild sunburn. This typically fades within minutes or a few hours.
- Cool & Soothe While the Soprano device includes a built-in cooling feature, you can still apply a cool compress or aloe vera gel to help calm the skin if it feels sensitive.
- Gentle Treatment For the first 24 hours, treat your skin as if it has mild sunburn: avoid scrubbing, rubbing, or using harsh products.
- Hydration Drinking 1–2 liters of water post-treatment can support the skin’s natural healing process.
2. Sun Exposure & UV Protection
- Avoid Direct Sunlight Your skin is more sensitive following laser hair removal. Steer clear of sun exposure for at least 48 hours post-treatment. If you must be outdoors, apply a broad-spectrum, high-SPF sunscreen (SPF 30+ or higher).
- No Tanning Refrain from using sunbeds or self-tanning products for 2 weeks before and after your session. Freshly tanned skin is at a higher risk of hyperpigmentation or burns.
3. Heat & Activity Restrictions
- Skip High Heat Avoid hot baths, saunas, steam rooms, and other heat-based treatments (like intense exercise) for 24–48 hours. Excessive heat can aggravate redness or irritation.
- Wear Loose Clothing The treated area may be sensitive, so choose loose-fitting garments to reduce friction and promote comfort.
4. Skincare Routine
- Gentle Cleansing Keep the area clean by using a mild, fragrance-free cleanser. Harsh or abrasive products could further irritate the skin.
- Moisturise Regularly Use a hypoallergenic, fragrance-free moisturiser to keep the treated area hydrated. If you need product recommendations, our team can suggest options best suited for your skin type.
- Soothing Gels If your skin feels sore, aloe vera or similar soothing gels can help reduce redness.
- No Harsh Chemicals Avoid bleach, perfumes, aromatherapy oils, or chlorinated pools for 24–72 hours to prevent irritation.
- Postpone Exfoliation Refrain from using exfoliants (scrubs, acids, chemical peels, microdermabrasion) for at least 1–2 weeks. This allows the skin to recover without added sensitivity.
5. Hair Regrowth Management
- Shedding is Normal Treated hairs may begin to shed over the next couple of weeks. Let this process happen naturally—do not pull or pick at the hair.
- Shaving Only Do not wax, tweeze, or thread the treated area between sessions. Shaving is acceptable if necessary, but do it gently and avoid irritating the skin.
6. Follow-Up & Communication
- Stay on Schedule For optimal results, complete the recommended number of treatment sessions based on your practitioner’s advice. Laser hair removal usually requires multiple visits for near-permanent effects.
- Contact Your Practitioner If you experience any unusual or prolonged side effects—such as persistent redness, blistering, or swelling—please reach out to your practitioner immediately.
- We’re Here to Help If you have any concerns, questions, or need advice on aftercare products, contact our clinic. We’re dedicated to ensuring you’re comfortable and satisfied with your treatment experience.
