Most days, you eat lunch at your desk, and only now and then can you get away for about an hour. You'd like to be ready for same-day laser hair removal appointments in Timonium, MD, so when an opening comes up for your bikini area, you can say yes. Our laser hair removal page explains the Optimas system in more detail.

You can book at our Lutherville, MD office on York Road, a few minutes from Timonium.

What Should I Do Weeks Before Bikini Laser Hair Removal?

Book your consultation first, so your laser provider can review your skin, hair and medical history. From then on, stop waxing, plucking and epilating, and shave instead. Are there medications or skincare products I need to mention? Yes, so bring a list, including antibiotics, retinoids and supplements. Can I complete forms in advance? Ask our front desk when you book. What should I wear? Loose, comfortable clothing makes a bikini session easier.

What Should I Do the Week and Day Before My Laser Appointment?

In the weeks before, stay out of the sun and remove any fake tan, and then exfoliate gently and shave the area the day before. On the day itself, come with clean skin, free of deodorant, lotion and perfume. Typically, a topical numbing solution is available if you'd like it, and over-the-counter pain relievers are another option.

Can Same-Day Laser Hair Removal Appointments in Timonium, MD Fit Into an Hour?

Often, once your consultation is done and your skin is ready, a bikini session can fit into a lunch hour. The treatment itself feels like a rubber band snap, and you'll start to see shedding within a few weeks. In the event you've been in the sun or waxed recently, wait for the next opening. What should I avoid right after treatment if I'm heading back to work? Ask your laser provider, since aftercare depends on how your skin responds. Our Bel Air and Columbia offices offer the same Optimas treatment, too.
