What is often advised to avoid following electrolysis to minimize client discomfort?

To minimize client discomfort following electrolysis, it is advisable to avoid excessive cleaning of the treatment area. After an electrolysis session, the skin may be sensitive and in a healing state. Excessively cleaning the area can irritate the skin further, potentially causing redness, inflammation, or discomfort. Gentle care is preferred to allow the skin to recover without additional agitation.

In contrast, other post-treatment advice typically includes managing heat exposure, avoiding irritating products like alcohol-based solutions, and protecting the area from sun exposure. These considerations help in soothing the skin and minimizing adverse reactions.
