Hair Removal

Most hair-removal complaints are not about the removal but the aftermath — ingrown hairs, folliculitis and irritation, nearly all of which are preventable.

What to know before you choose

Exfoliate two days before, not immediately after.
Ingrown hairs come from hair growing back into closed follicles — gentle chemical exfoliation prevents them best.
Never wax skin on a retinoid. It lifts skin, not just hair.
