WHAT IS WAXING?
Waxing is a popular hair removal technique to reveal soft, smooth, silky skin. We find that strip wax is most effective in removing hair from the root. At Elegant Laser & Aesthetics, we use only the best products specifically formulated for sensitive and delicate skin. Our wax is an all natural wax great for all skin types.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
One of the benefits of waxing is the long lasting smooth skin it reveals while removing dead skin cells away along with the process. Waxing removed the hair from the root leaving behind no stubble, cuts, or nicks. The wax is allergy free and rarely causes any skin irritation or allergy. While waxing consistently, our client reported slower re-hair growth, and found their hair to be finer after each regrowth and wax session. Each wax can last up to 4-6 weeks depending on individual hair growth.
PATIENT EDUCATION
PREPARE:
Wear loose fitted clothe for your wax appointment to allow your skin to breathe and avoid anything that may cause irritation. We also recommended not applying any lotions or serums over the desired wax area for each adherence of the hair to the wax strips. Avoid shaving between wax appointments for best results. We recommend exfoliating one day prior to your wax appointment as well.
BEFORE:
You will be asked to remove or reveal the area of skin that you would like to be waxed. We will provide additional cover up material for extra exposed areas to make our clients more comfortable. Let your technician know if you have been shaving between waxes.
DURING:
The skin is cleaned and then prepped with a powder for better wax adherence. The wax is applied directly to the skin over the hair intended to be removed. Then a strip of wax paper is applied over the wax with a gentle, but firm pressure before the technician removes the strip. Once the wax process is complete, a wax oil is applied over the skin to soothe, calm, and remove any wax residue. We recommend the hair to be a minimum of ¼ inch to ensure proper removal of the hair from its roots. We do not recommend trimming.
AFTER:
After your wax session, we recommend wearing loose fitted clothing. We also advise to avoid sweating, sauna, steam, bath, or swimming for at least 24 hours to allow the open pores to close. We recommended to continue exfoliating the skin every 2-3 times a week to prevent the growth of ingrown hair. If you struggle with ingrown hair, ask about our ingrown hair serum during your visit.
