What is Waxing?
Waxing is a very popular and widely used method for semi-permanent hair removal. As the name implies, the process involves the use of wax to remove hair from the root, leaving smooth, hair-less skin in its place. Depending on the individual and area of the body, waxing results typically last 3 to 6 weeks and can be done on almost any part of the body, including face, eyebrows, bikini area, legs, arms, back, chest, and feet. Waxing also rejuvenates the skin, removes dead skin cells and is a great exfoliation process.

How does it work?

High-quality warm wax is applied and smoothed over your target area. As the wax comes into contact with skin, it will cool and harden, and in the process, firmly attach to the fair follicles where it is applied. The wax is then removed in the opposite direction of hair growth to leave smooth, hairless skin behind. As is often the case, you may feel slight irritation when the wax is removed, but this sensation subsides almost immediately.

Candidates for Waxing

Waxing can be done on almost anyone. We do suggest that hair follicles in the treated area are at least ¼ inch in length, that you do not shave the treated area prior to waxing and that you refrain from the use of retinol at least 4 days prior to waxing.

  • How do I prepare for my peel?
    Lush MedSpa recommends that you avoid aggressive exfoliation for 2 days prior to your procedure, that you refrain from waxing in the treated area for 5 days prior and that use cease the use of retinal at least 1 week prior.
  • How do I know which peel is right for me?
    We offer a variety of peels, each with unique solutions depending on your individual needs. Prior to scheduling a peel, we recommend you get a pre-peel consultation to determine which peel is best for your individual needs.
  • Does it hurt?
    uring the treatment, it is common to feel mild stinging or burning while the solution is in contact with the skin. Following a peel, your skin may appear red, feel tight or be mildly irritated. Collectively, most clients report only mild discomfort during and after the procedure. For more intensive chemical peels, moderate swelling and dryness may occur and in rare cases blistering.
  • When should I expect to see results from my peel?
    In the case of many peels, you will see noticeable improvements within the first few days after treatment. However, to achieve significant results, multiple treatments may be required.
  • What do I do when my skin starts peeling?
    We recommend you do not pick or pull at the dead skin and allow the skin to slough off naturally at its own pace. For more rapid peeling you can choose to forgo the use of moisturizers; however, if this becomes too uncomfortable moisturize to your comfort level. Once the peeling slows you can reintroduce moisture ideally with a product containing Hyaluronic acid.
