Preparation and aftercare

Before your appointment

Shave the full buttocks area cleanly with a fresh razor 12 to 24 hours prior to your appointment—do not wax, pluck, or epilate.
Avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, or self-tanners on the gluteal area for 2 to 4 weeks prior to your session.

After your appointment

Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear and clothing immediately post-treatment to prevent friction and heat retention.
Avoid hot baths, saunas, hot tubs, intense physical workouts, and harsh body scrubs for 24 to 48 hours following your session.

Helpful answers

Frequently asked questions

Is Full Buttocks IPL hair removal painful?

Most clients describe the sensation as a quick warm flick or light rubber band snap. Thanks to our integrated sapphire contact cooling handpiece, skin temperature is kept low throughout the procedure, making treatment across the buttocks smooth and comfortable.

Will Full Buttocks IPL help clear up 'butt acne' or folliculitis bumps?

Yes! Most bumps on the buttocks are not true acne, but folliculitis—inflammation caused by hair follicles trapped under sweat and dead skin. By destroying the root follicle with IPL, hair stops growing, which permanently clears inflamed bumps and smooths skin texture.

Does Full Buttocks IPL include the inner crease (perianal) area?

Yes! At Galeo Beauty, our Full Buttocks IPL treatment covers the entire outer gluteal cheeks as well as the inner gluteal fold and perianal boundary for complete, seamless hair removal.

How many IPL sessions will I need for full buttocks hair reduction?

Because hair grows in distinct cycles, a series of 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended to achieve up to 85–95% permanent hair reduction.

How should I shave my buttocks before my IPL appointment?

Carefully shave the entire buttocks area with a fresh razor and gentle shaving cream 12 to 24 hours prior to your session. Ensure skin is completely clean and free of body lotions, oils, or creams on the day of treatment.
