Why should you not pluck after laser hair removal? When it comes to laser hair removal there are a handful of rules that are important to follow. Not only because it will safe guide your treatment, but also in order to ensure you get the best results from each of your sessions. And one of these is, never to pluck your hair between your treatments.
Laser hair removal
During laser hair removal the light emitted by the laser is targeting the hair follicles. However for your treatment to be effective you must have your follicles in tact and in a specific growing stage.
Why should you not pluck after laser hair removal?
When you pluck you instantly remove the follicles along with the hair. And so by the time this grows back the follicle may be premature in its growth. And so your laser hair removal treatment will be ineffective as it won’t be able to capture and destroy the root. So for this very reason you should resist the temptation and never pluck between your laser hair removal treatments.
Hair removal between laser sessions
If the hair is inconvenient for sure you’ll still want to get rid of it during treatments. But in order to guarantee the best outcome from each laser hair removal session, in between treatments you should only shave, trim or cut the hair as close to the skin as possible. This way your hair follicles remain in tact and will be ready for the laser to successfully destroy them.
