- Do I need to inform about self-tanning products as well?
General information, not a personal diagnosis or treatment plan. Suitability, risks and recovery require an individual consultation.
Why does tanning affect the hair removal plan?
Laser hair removal is a procedure that needs to consider not only hair but also skin color. For preparing for academic events, consult about tanning and recent exposure. If your usual skin color is different from your current skin color, do not expect the settings that previously worked without issues to apply as they did before.

Can the procedure be done on the same day if sunscreen is applied?
Applying sunscreen does not instantly remove existing tanning or sunburn. If there is redness, heat, or peeling, please inform us before your appointment. Whether to postpone until your skin recovers or plan for a different approach should be decided during the consultation.
Do I need to inform about self-tanning products as well?
Please also inform us about any tanning products or skin color correction products you have recently used. Assuming you did not use any skin color changing products may lead to inaccurate evaluation. It is recommended to check the pause/cleansing conditions in the appointment instructions and provide the names of the products you are using.
Can I get it done once before vacation and still go to the beach?
Discuss your sun exposure and water activity plans together after the procedure. Rather than rushing to fit your vacation dates, it is important to set a time that allows for recovery and protection. Do not assume that the 'swimsuit treatment area' is completely protected from the sun.
What if your skin is prone to hyperpigmentation?
Please share your experience with wounds or acne marks that lasted a long time. You can consult about the equipment, settings suitable for your skin type, and the need for a test application. It is not recommended to use other people's fair skin before-and-after photos as a benchmark for your results.
If you plan summer hair removal in Dongseong-ro, Daegu?
When consulting for hair removal in Dongseong-ro, coordinate the schedule with outdoor work or vacation plans. The fact that the official hair removal treatment list is available in summer is separate from the suitability for tanned skin, so check your current condition before finalizing your reservation.
