We usually tell nurses and sisters not to take a bath with shower gel after hair removal. After hair removal, the skin is sensitive and easily stimulated. There are many places to pay attention to when taking a bath to promote skin recovery.

What happens when you use shower gel to remove hair?

Laser hair removal is a plastic surgery that many people choose. It can solve the problem that people's body hair is too lush, but people don't know what it will be like to use shower gel to remove hair. After laser hair removal, do not use shower gel and other products for cleaning when taking a bath. This is because the hair follicle is stimulated by laser and the pores will open. Hot water will soften and widen the pores, while shower gel will stimulate the enlarged pores and make the hair thicker, which is harmful to skin health.

1. Hair thickening: This is one of the common side effects of permanent hair removal, and depilatory cream will make hair thicker and shorter. This is mainly because when depilating with depilatory cream, the deep hair roots can't be pulled up, and the broken residual hair will stay there. This kind of residual hair looks thick and hard.

2, irritate the skin and cause adverse reactions: depilatory cream is a chemical agent, so it is very irritating to the skin and causes harm to the skin. In addition, depilatory cream will stay in the skin for a long time, which often leads to skin allergies. Some beauty seekers use depilatory cream excessively, which causes skin redness and allergy.

Matters needing attention in bathing after depilation

After depilation with depilatory cream, do not bathe with soap, shower gel and other products. These products are irritating to some extent, but the newly depilated skin is sensitive and easy to cause irritation to the depilated skin. The water temperature of bathing should also be controlled at about 40 degrees Celsius, which is not suitable for showering and the water flow should not be too big. If you feel burning after bathing, you can choose cold compress, and it is best not to apply topical ointment, because the depilatory cream used before has certain chemical components, and the two may react chemically, causing damage to the skin again, which can generally be alleviated under cold compress. After laser hair removal, you need to replenish water to your skin. This is because laser hair removal leads to skin moisture loss, which is also the reason why many people feel tight after laser hair removal. Because the skin after laser is fragile, it is not suitable to use skin care products with greater irritation. It is best to use pure plant skin care products. Because the skin is short of water after laser, it is generally recommended to use a series of skin care products to increase the moisture content of the stratum corneum, repair the superficial skin, rebuild the skin barrier, and resist irritation and inflammation.

Wash in time after using depilatory cream.

The cream component of depilatory cream is easy to remain in the pores of the skin. If it cannot be cleaned in time after use, it is easy to block the pores on the skin and aggravate the irritation to the skin, especially people with sensitive skin will have various itching symptoms.
