Post-Treatment Care for Electrolysis Hair Removal

It is normal for the skin to be slightly red and swollen after electrolysis treatments. These conditions usually disappear in an hour or two but may last longer. It's important to avoid any activity that would subject the treated skin to irritating conditions while it is in the healing stage. The following post treatment care should be followed for the first 24 to 48 hours depending on the area treated.

Follow these steps for optimum healing:

  1. Keep the area clean with suitable antiseptics such as Witch-Hazel, Hydrogen Peroxide, alcohol, or soap and water.
  2. Apply ice to the treated area to reduce any swelling if necessary.
  3. If advised by your electrologist, apply an antibiotic cream to help minimize infection in the treated area.
  4. Keep your hands off the area. If any scabs appear following the treatment, apply Calamine Lotion to speed up the healing process. Do not pick them off.
  5. Do not use any abrasive scrubbing action on the treated areas.
  6. Do not visit a tanning salon or get a sunburn on the treated area for at least two days.
  7. Use only fresh make-up, purchased within the last 90 days to minimize infection.

If any reaction occurs which appears related to your electrolysis treatment, contact us for further care instructions.
