Using the latest hygienic waxing system, your skin will look and stay silky
smooth for weeks at a time.
Waxing can
remove large areas of hair in a relatively short time but can be painful. The
time frame between waxing treatments varies from 3-8 weeks.
Waxing
alone will not result in less hair growth. However, if you are interested
in permanent hair removal, then you should consider laser
or electrolysis.
Frequently Asked Questions:
 | How does waxing work?
A wax combination is spread thinly over the skin.
A cloth strip is pressed on the top and then ripped off with a quick movement
removing the wax along with the hair and dead skin cells, leaving the skin
smooth. |
| What's the difference between hot
waxes and cold waxes?
Good hot waxes melt just above body temperature so they can be easily
spread thinly over the skin. As they harden they trap the hair in the wax so
it is removed by the roots when the wax is ripped off.
Cold waxes are available in precoated strips which can be pressed directly
onto the skin. The hair sticks to the wax and is then removed with the quick
pull back action. (Cold waxing is also known as Persian waxing.) |
| What is the effect on the skin?
As dead skin cells are removed in this process the skin can feel quite
smooth afterwards. The waxing action does cause the skin to sting and many
find a soothing skin healing cream to be helpful afterwards.
Some persons find the skin reacts with redness and bumps which disappear after
a few hours. |
| Are there any health precautions
to keep in mind?
Some physicians do not recommend waxing for persons suffering from
diabetes or who have varicose veins or poor circulation as they are more
susceptible to infection.
Users of Retin-A, Renova, Differin or Accutane are advised not to use waxing
on the face as these medications tend to weaken the skin and tearing of the
skin may occur when the wax is removed. Consult with your doctor if you are
not sure.
Waxing should not be done on areas of skin affected by warts and moles or on
skin that is irritated, chapped or suffering from sunburn. |
| On what body areas can waxing be
used?
It is wise to test a small area first but generally waxing can be used
on most parts of the body. The exceptions are the male genitals, nipples,
inside the ears and nose, eyelashes.
Some find it works well on legs and arms but a little too painful for the
bikini line. |
| How long before hair reappears
last?
Generally between 3 and 8 weeks. Less hair re-grows and it is generally
finer. Eventually some hair never re-grows. |
