What happens if you don't shave before laser hair removal?
I am a 27 year old female. I want to know what happens if you don't shave before laser hair removal?

If one doesn't shave before laser hair removal, it decreases the efficacy of the treatment. In short, it gives the laser a larger target.
Hi,
If your hairs are too long at the time of laser hair removal, they will singe and you will feel a burn. Shave about 1 week prior to your appt and have short stubble at the time of your appointment.
I hope this helps.
