IPL Before and After Care Info enhance skin care & hair removal specialists IPL & Skin Rejuventaion Before & Aftercare Instructions The following instructions should be followed closely to make sure that your next treatment can go ahead as planned. Please note that some conditions are not suitable for IPL Treatments, such as Light-Induced Epilepsy, Porphyria and pregnant women. Persons taking photo-sensitive medication or undergoing treatment for certain medical conditions may also not be suitable for IPL treatment. Red, white, and blonde hair cannot be treated due to the lack of melanin. More information is available in our IPL & Skin rejuvenation information sheet. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to Contact Us Before your treatment... • Do not expose the skin to UV light (sun exposure or the use of tanning beds) or self tan (lotions, gels, spray etc) for at least 4 weeks before and/or between your IPL treatments. • ONE day prior to treatment, neatly remove all the hair in the area to be treated by shaving, trying not to nick the skin in the process. The IPL energy needs to be able to travel all the way down the hair shaft towards the root to fully destroy the hair follicle. Any remaining surface hair will attract the IPL energy away from the root making it more uncomfortable and less effective. • Do not depilate with waxing, plucking, or threading before and/or between IPL treatments. shaving is preferred. • Do not use bleaching creams. • Avoid swimming in strong chlorinated water immediately before an IPL treatment session. • Avoid exfoliating, microdermabrasion, or peels for 1 week before treatment sessions. • Keep the area to be treated clean and dry. • Protect the skin from sun exposure with suitable clothing and use of sun block SPF 30+ before first treatment and between subsequent treatment sessions. On the day of your treatment … • Avoid wearing dark/black underwear for underarm or bikini treatments. • If taking antibiotics, inform us of the exact dose, brand name & the length of time After your treatment... • Do not expose skin to UV light (sun exposure or the use of tanning beds) for the duration of your course of • treatments as actively tanned skin cannot be treated. You must wait at least 4 weeks (and up to 6) after tanning • to have another IPL treatment. • Do not use any self-tan products for at least 2 weeks after your treatment and at least 10 days before your next • treatment. • Do not shave for 48-72 hrs after your treatment.

  • When Razor Meets Skin: a Scientific Approach to Shaving by Dr
    When Razor Meets Skin: A Scientific Approach to Shaving by Dr. Diana Howard A survey conducted by The International Dermal Institute indicates that 79 percent of male respondents say they have one or more skin problem(s) that they notice daily, and yet the selection of their shaving products rarely takes this into account. Shaving can not only result in razor burn, ingrown hairs and razor bumps, but it can lead to increased sensitization and inflammation that results in premature aging. Unfortunately, as the average man’s beard grows two mm per day, there is ample opportunity to create an inflamed skin condition during shaving. As a matter of fact, if the average man starts shaving at age 13 and continues until he is 85 years old, and assuming he spends all of five minutes shaving each day, he will devote over six months of his life to just shaving his beard. As professional skin therapists, we may not be shaving our clients, but with the ever increasing number of men in skin treatment centers, salons and spas, we need to educate them about their specific skin care needs as it relates to shaving. Problems Associated with Shaving We know that the simple act of shaving imposes constant stress on the skin. Shaving is a form of physical exfoliation that can impact the health of the skin. Razor bumps, ingrown hairs, razor burn and inflammation are just some of the visible signs of trauma that the skin endures when a razor is used on the beard. Shaving triggers a high level of visible irritation and can lead to over- exfoliation, as well as a compromised lipid barrier.

  • WHO Surgical Site Infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a Systematic Review on the Effectiveness and Optimal Method of Hair Removal
    WHO Surgical Site infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a systematic review on the effectiveness and optimal method of hair removal 1. Introduction Removal of hair from the intended site of surgical incision has traditionally been part of the routine preoperative preparation of patients undergoing surgery. Hair removal may be necessary to facilitate adequate exposure to the site and preoperative skin marking. Furthermore, suturing and the application of wound dressings can be complicated by the presence of hair. Apart from these practical issues, hair has been associated with a lack of cleanliness and the potential to cause surgical site infection (SSI). However, there is also the belief that hair removal inversely increases the risk of SSI by causing microscopic trauma of the skin. To minimize the potential of skin trauma, the use of clippers instead of razors has been proposed for preoperative hair removal. Clippers cut the hair close to the skin without actually touching it, whereas razors involve a sharp blade drawn directly over the skin. A third method for hair removal is the application of depilatory creams containing chemicals. The drawbacks are the necessity to leave the cream in place for approximately 15-20 minutes for the hair to be dissolved and the potential for allergic reactions. A Cochrane review, published in 2009 and updated in 2011, concluded that there was no statistically significant effect on SSI rates of hair removal 1. However, a significant harm was seen when hair removal with razors was compared with clipping. 2. PICO questions 1. Does hair removal affect the incidence of SSI? 2.
