Why the Winter is PERFECT for Laser Hair Removal Treatments

One thing absolutely no one enjoys having to endure during the Summer months is having to make the precious time in our Summer schedules for subpar hair removal rituals such as waxing appointments and shaving schedules… or dealing with messy chemical-filled and gross-smelling hair removal creams.

Preparation for that hot, care-free and adventurous summer is really the surest way of experiencing it…and laser hair removal treatments with the gold standard Candela GentleMax Pro PLUS just happen to be best suited for the Winter months. This is because of the following key reasons:

1. Winter makes it effortless to avoid sun exposure (no kidding eh Canada?!): It’s common knowledge that when compared to our hot  summer months, avoiding sun exposure in the winter is a piece of cake. Excessive sun exposure can have an adverse effect of damaging laser treated skin, which can result in the formation of blisters and/or burns (ouch). Hence, our after-care instructions for our laser hair removal.  treatment sessions includes avoiding sun exposure on treated areas for a window of two to four weeks post-treatment. The winter time makes this recovery step a much easier process versus the summer time

2. Winter is the time to layer up and live in fleece, which means protecting the laser treated area from unnecessary exposure: This is related to #1. Covering up post-treatment protects the laser treated area from unnecessary sun exposure and UV light. In the cold weather, covering up is less of an issue because you’re more likely to be bundled up anyway from the cold weather. Winning.

3. Winter is the ideal time to prepare for your flawless Summer skin: At LMC – Laser Medical Clinic, we exclusively use the gold standard and multiple award winning Candela GentleMax Pro PLUS Laser for ouaser hair removal.
