You should check with your provider, however it should be fine to continue your topical retinoid between treatments. At my practice we advise our patients to avoid active products over the treated area 1 week pre- and post-procedurally.
You need to be off of all retinols for 7 days prior to any laser services. So, depending on how close together your hair removal appointments are, as long as you can discontinue use for the 7 days prior to each, in between services will be ok. Each provider may have their own recommendations, so be sure to check with yours.
You can do it the same day if you want, there is no downtime to have to wait. Laser hair removal doesnt affect liposuction or vice versa. my clients do treatments while they are healing. Best, Dr. Emer.
Taking zinc and magnesium does not guarantee hair growth but correcting deficiencies in them can help improve hair growth. This should not get in the way of laser hair removal
Hello! Thank you for your question. We do recommend shaving 24 hours prior to your treatment, however we will do for you if need be.
