Can Nasen be used before laser hair removal treatment?

A contraindication to laser hair removal is the use of photosensitizing drugs. Zolpidem, the active ingredient in Nasen, is not one of them.

You can find information about Nasen below. The drug is used to treat insomnia in the short term:

Laser hair removal should be properly prepared.
First of all, at least 4 weeks before the planned laser hair removal, you should give up sunbathing (also in a tanning bed). During this time, it is also inadvisable to pluck hair with an epilator, wax or tweezers. It is also important to give up hair removal creams, exfoliants and self-tanners. During this period, it is not recommended to use ointments or creams with vitamins C and D, retinoids or fruit acids in the place of the depilated surface.

A week before the procedure, the patient should stop taking photosensitizing drugs (photoallergic and phototoxic) and herbs with the same effect. On the other hand, the day before the planned laser hair removal, it is necessary to remove the hair with a razor. The skin should not be oiled with lotion or cream. However, if it is irritated and needs moisturizing, it is good to use preparations such as Dermosan, Alantan Plus and Nanobase.

These preparations can be booked at a pharmacy of your choice using our portal:
