You just spent a weekend by the pool, got a little sun, and now you’re thinking, “Maybe I’ll go ahead and book that laser session this week.”

Don’t. Treating skin that’s recently sun-exposed is one of the fastest ways to trade a “refresh” for a disaster. Lasers see melanin, heat and excess pigment is like walking into your own trap.
