As the Chicago weather finally cools down, it’s the absolute best time to start your laser hair removal journey.
Why? Because less sun exposure means safer, more effective treatments. But did you know the laser you
choose actually dictates your fall skincare strategy?

Here is the breakdown from our experts at RS Laser:

  • If you are treating with the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus: Fall is your season. During the summer, Candela requires a strict 14-day sun-avoidance window before and after your session. Now that beach days are over, you don't have to stress about scheduling around your tan!
  • If you prefer the painless DEKA Motus: The rules stay exactly the same. You only need to stay out of the sun
    for 3 days before and after your treatment, making it the ultimate flexible option year-round.

An important note from your RS Laser Specialists on SPF:
Just because it’s getting cloudy in Chicago doesn’t mean the UV index is zero! SPF 50 is still 100% non-negotiable on any exposed areas we treat (yes, even in November). Protecting your skin barrier is the secret to securing those flawless, irritation-free results.

Remember, laser takes time.
Ditch the razor this fall, start your sessions now, and you will be completely hair-free by next summer!
