Post-Electrolysis Care: How to Keep Your Skin Calm, Smooth, and Happy

 

Welcome to the smooth life! You’ve made a significant step towards permanent hair removal in the United Arab Emirates. However, the outcome of your electrolysis session is equally as significant as the actual treatment. How you treat your skin after a session can significantly impact your comfort, healing, and long-term results.

Here are some tips from Doreen Electrolysis Centre to maintain the greatest possible appearance and feel for your skin.


Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate.

Electrolysis can leave the skin slightly dry or tight, especially during your first few sessions. Your skin heals more quickly if you keep the area moisturised.

Apply a mild, odourless moisturiser.

Throughout the day, reapply if your skin feels dry.

To promote internal skin healing, drink lots of water.

Happy skin is hydrated skin.

Say No To Harsh Products

Your skin is more susceptible after your session. Steer clear of anything that can aggravate or clog the pores:

No acids (like AHA/BHA), scrubs, or peels for 3–5 days.

Avoid alcohol-based toners or harsh cleansers.

Don’t use makeup on treated areas for 24–48 hours.

Stick to simple, soothing skincare for the first few days.

Don’t Pick or Scratch

As your skin heals, you might experience mild scabbing or dryness. Resist the urge to pick!

Scratching can delay healing and cause scarring.

Let any flakiness fall off naturally.

Apply aloe vera or post-treatment creams if itching occurs.

Remember: good results come from good patience.

Keep It Clean and Cool

Avoid anything that causes sweating, rubbing, or friction. That includes:

Heavy workouts, hot showers, or saunas (at least for 24–48 hours)

Tight clothing over treated areas

Avoid touching your face or picking at your skin.

If your session was on a visible area (like the face or neck), stay in the shade and wear a clean mask if needed.

Protect Your Glow From the Sun

After electrolysis, UV exposure can increase the risk of pigmentation, especially on the face. We recommend:

Staying out of direct sunlight for 2–3 days

Using a high-SPF sunscreen daily

Wearing hats or scarves for extra protection

This is especially important in the UAE’s strong sun!
