Can I use hair removal cream before Brazilian LHR?

Yes, You can use laser hair removal cream as it removes only the surface hairs. You can also shave or bleach the area, none of which affects the hair within the follicle, under the skin.  Shaving may be the preferred route however sometimes women are concerned this may actually make the hair thicker.  This is a fallacy and shaving does not lead to increased hair growth or density.  Best of luck

Thank you for your question.  Your LHR provider should have answered this question before and after your treatment.  If you have bothersome hair between laser hair removal treatments, you MUST shave between treatments.  LHR only works if there is a hair shaft in the follicle.  The laser energy follows the hair down the shaft to destroy the follicle.  If the hair has been removed by waxing, plucking or depilatory agents (hair removal creams), the laser will pass over the follicle leaving it intact to produce another hair.  We ask our patients to shave between laser treatments and abstain from these other methods.We would recommend contacting your provider for further guidance.  If they are unable to answer your questions, you should probably find a more experienced provider.
