What is the recommended time to wait before electrolysis treatment after dermabrasion?

Electrolysis practitioners typically recommend waiting around three months after dermabrasion before performing electrolysis treatments. Dermabrasion is a procedure that removes the uppermost layers of skin and can result in sensitivity, redness, and inflammation during the healing process. Waiting this duration ensures that the skin has adequately healed and that any potential irritation or adverse effects from dermabrasion have subsided, providing a safer environment for electrolysis.

During the three-month waiting period, the skin can recover fully, which is crucial for preventing complications such as infection or additional irritation that could arise from treating skin that is still healing. This waiting period aligns with best practices in skincare and cosmetic treatments, ensuring that both the skin's integrity and the effectiveness of the electrolysis treatment are maintained.
