You may experience a slight sunburned feeling to the treated area for a couple of hours. Apply a cool compress to the area for 10-15 minutes an hour for 4-5 hours after treatment.
For the next 2-5 days, you may develop a fine curst over the treated area. Keep the area clean by washing twice a day with a mild soap followed by a small application of Bacitracin or Polysporin ointment (these products can be purchased without a prescription at any drugstore). Continue until the crusting disappears. Do not use glycolic cleaners or Retin A products over the treated area for one week after treatment. If make-up is desired, apply a thin coat of Bacitracin before the makeup. Do not use deodorant on underarm areas until the area is healed. Use sun protection with an SPF 15 or greater prior to going outdoors and avoid excessive sun exposure.
You will notice that the hair may be singed in the treated area. The hair will continue to grow until the hair follicle has grown and fallen out. This process may take up to two weeks. You may not tweeze or wax in between treatments. You may, however, shave the area.
