Your lifestyle and how often you spend time outside in the sun will play a significant role in whether you should consider laser hair removal in winter or summer.

Do not tan or put fake tan products on your skin as it will be sensitive after the laser treatment.

Tip #2: Think About the Areas Where You Want to be LaseredIf you spend a lot of time working outside or exposed to the sun, it is best not to have exposed areas lasered in the summer. The UVB and UVA rays of the sun can still affect your skin, even if you don’t actively sit and tan in the sun. Your skin will be more sensitive during laser treatments, and it is best to do exposed areas during winter when more of your skin is covered up. Your underarms and bikini line are the best target areas for laser hair removal in the summer.Tip #3: Be Conscious of Laser Hair Removal Aftercare TipsHere are a few aftercare tips that can help you after a session, regardless of the season.
