Essential Aftercare for Electrolysis Treatments

The Golden Rule: Keep it Clean

For the first 24-48 hours, your follicles are open and healing. Keeping the area clean and bacteria-free is paramount.

What to Avoid

• Touching: bacterial transfer is the #1 cause of minor breakouts.
• Makeup: Avoid applying foundation to the treated area for at least 24 hours.
• Heat: Skip the sauna, hot tub, or intense workouts for the first day.
• Sun: Freshly treated skin is sensitive to UV rays. Wear a hat or apply sunscreen if you must be outside.

Soothing the Skin

We apply aftercare products immediately post-treatment (often using Cataphoresis). At home, you can use witch hazel or aloe vera gel to cool and soothe the skin if needed.
