This is my third lower leg treatment (Lightsheer, 40) and the second time my legs get mad itchy after. Last time it lasted three days and it’s already been a day this time. Is there anything I can do?
The tech says it is because the hairs go so deep and that it is the healing process that itches.
Buy some clear aloe vera gel and cool it in the fridge. Then apply a few times a day.
You could also try an oral antihistamine or an anti-itch cream/gel. For the latter, look for ingredients such as diphenhydramine, menthol, calamine, or zinc oxide.
It’s normal (but annoying) for the itch to last a few days to even a week after treatment. But, as you noticed before, it subsides.
