Two weeks ago I had my first treatment (bikini and underarms) with the Candela Gentlelase - the initial swelling and redness wore off after a few days but now I am noticing a lot of itchiness in the treated areas. 
Has anyone else experienced this?? Itâs driving me a little crazy- and I canât look great scratching my underarms all the time either!
Any and all replies greatly appreciated!
I amagine that it is probaly dry skin. Didnât they recommend you use a moisturiser for the first few days?
Use something for extremely dry skin or aloe works great!
Try seching the achives by typing in the words âitchyâ or âitchynessâ. You might find more info.
Thank you both for the quick responses!
I tried a search on the boards, but didnât come up with anything.
Also, Iâve been very diligent about using a rich moisturizer on at least my bikini area (although not the underarms as much I confess) but it hasnât helped at all. Maybe my skin just reacts strangely to the laserâŚ
thanks again!
I just did a search with the word âitchyâ and found 7 threads on the Laser section. I bet there a some more on the Electrolysis section.
