Waxing Hair Removal

Waxing hair removal is relatively common, and can be performed at home or by a licensed cosmetologist. The benefits of waxing include slow regrowth and instant results. The drawbacks include slight to significant discomfort, ingrown hairs, and the recurring expense of continued waxing. Also, not everyone can take advantage of waxing; those with diabetes, varicose veins, and those taking specific medications such as Retin-A should not get waxed.

Waxing hair removal is a good option for people who want to remove hair only semi-permanently. Areas that are waxed should remain hair-free for one to two months. After that, hair will regrow as usual. While repeated waxings may result in softer, finer hair, this process can take years to occur and does not happen in all individuals. For a more permanent solution than waxing hair removal, laser treatments are a solid alternative.

Laser hair removal, first introduced over a decade ago, provides permanent hair removal in anywhere from six to nine sessions. This hair removal method is safe for all areas of the body, since the skin surrounding the targeted hair follicle is not damaged. While the skin of treated areas may be red and/or swollen immediately following the treatment, the FDA has approved the procedure for its long-term safety.

Unlike waxing hair removal, laser treatments cannot be performed at home. However, laser hair removal centers and spas exist in all areas of the country.
