Why Choose our dedicated Post Laser Care?
Why Choose Our Post-Laser Cleanser?
After laser treatments, regular body washes and foaming soaps can irritate the skin, worsen inflammation, and increase the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIHP). Our specially formulated post-laser cleanser is:
✔ Ultra-Gentle & Non-Foaming – Made with Cocamidopropyl betaine, a mild surfactant that won’t dry or irritate sensitive skin.
✔ Barrier-Strengthening – Supports skin recovery and preps it for future laser treatments.
✔ Anti-Inflammatory – Contains ingredients to cool and reduce redness, preventing PIHP.
✔ Therapeutic Ingredients – High levels of soothing ingredients provide deep hydration and soothing benefits.
✔ Multi-Use & Economical – Safe for face, body, and even hair.
Why Use an Exfoliant After Laser?
Exfoliation is key to maximising laser treatment results.
✔ Prevents Dead Skin Build-up – Dead skin can reflect laser energy, reducing effectiveness and causing sparks
✔ Reduces Ingrown Hairs – Keeps hair follicles clear, preventing irritation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIHP)
Why is Brightening Serum Recommended?
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIHP) can occur after laser treatments, especially in Fitzpatrick IV+ skin types, due to heat-induced inflammation. Our Brightening Serum helps prevent this by:
✔ Inhibiting Melanin Production – Blocks Tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin formation, reducing the risk of PIHP.
✔ Enhancing Laser Safety – Prepares skin by minimising competing melanin, preventing unwanted pigmentation.
✔ Essential for Darker Skin Tones – Mandatory for Fitzpatrick IV+ to ensure even, damage-free results.
✔ Multi-Use – Safe for both face and body.
Why use the prescribed Soothing Gel instead of Aloe Vera?
Post-laser care is crucial to prevent irritation and PIHP. While Aloe Vera is popular, most store-bought gels contain preservatives and colours that can worsen inflammation. Our Soothing Gel is specially formulated for post-laser recovery:
✔ Safe – Free from harsh additives that may trigger pigmentation.
✔ Advanced Cooling & Calming – More effective than Aloe Vera alone in reducing heat and inflammation.
✔ Antibacterial Protection – Contains ingredients to guard against infections during skin healing.
✔ Versatile & Multi-Use – Great for soothing laser-treated skin, insect bites, and even as a refreshing face mask with uplifting ingredient
