Direct answer

You need to set the timing for hair removal by informing the date of waxing/tweezing and the current hair condition. Just because the surface is smooth does not mean you are ready for laser treatment.

Before your consultation

  • Why do I need to inform that I had waxing first?
  • Can anyone do it if I wait a few weeks?
  • Can I pluck the hair that has grown in the meantime again?

General information, not a personal diagnosis or treatment plan. Suitability, risks and recovery require an individual consultation.

Why do I need to inform that I had waxing first?

The method of removing hair from the root is different from shaving. It affects the preparation for laser hair removal and the evaluation of hair condition, so inform the recent waxing date. Guidelines from the American Academy of Dermatology also emphasize the importance of pre-treatment consultation and checking previous care history.

Can anyone do it if I wait a few weeks?

You need to check the treatment area, the extent of regrowth, and skin recovery together. Do not determine everyone's readiness based solely on calendar dates. When making an appointment, provide the date of your last waxing and photos, and check if the schedule can be adjusted through an examination at the actual visit.

Can I pluck the hair that has grown in the meantime again?

Ask the responsible institution how to take care of hair during the laser process. If you forgot the initial instructions, it is better to check before plucking or waxing. Even if shaving is necessary, get guidance on a method that won't damage your skin and on the timing of preparation.

Is it possible on skin that is red from waxing?

If there is redness, peeling, or wounds, inform them before the procedure. Don't try to solve traces of irritation simultaneously with laser. It's good to check whether the skin has recovered and get an explanation of the criteria for postponing the procedure if necessary.

Is hair removal cream the same as waxing?

Hair removal cream works differently, but it can still irritate the skin, so inform them of your usage history. Provide the product used, the date, and whether it caused stinging. Switching to a different hair removal method does not mean you can immediately receive laser treatment without consultation.

How do I switch from waxing to laser in Daegu city?

When booking hair removal in Daegu city, first mention your transition plan and the date of your last hair removal. Refer to the official Apogee Plus hair removal guide, but it's best to determine the start time after checking your current skin and hair condition.
