Does It Hurt
Different people have different pain thresholds so to answer, laser treatment will hurt some more than others.
There are a number of factors that may affect how much you feel when using a home laser. For example some people with very dark hair or course hair may find using a laser more painful. Fortunately the better quality lasers have a number of settings which allow you to find the setting that is right for you.
As with all laser products we would recommend that you read the specific details about each product to determine it’s suitability for your skin type and anticipated pain threshold.
One thing you can be certain of is that some of the other hair removal methods such as waxing, sugaring and epilating can be much more painful than using a home laser.
If you do have a very low pain threshold or just want to reduce the pain levels you can buy an analgesic gel which has a numbing effect and fortifies the skin before treatment. So~Smooth sells Zcaine™ if you would like to buy Zcaine™ or receive more information about it click here.
If you find that there is discomfort after treatment you can also buy a post laser soothing crème which sooths and rejuvenates post laser treated skin on contact. So~Smooth sells Zcalm™ post laser rejuvenating crème if you would like to buy Zcalm™ or receive more information about it click here.
Home laser hair removal can hurt but not excessively so and the pain soon goes away especially if you use an analgesic gel or post treatment crème.
