Are there any Health Precautions to Keep in Mind with Waxing Hair Removal?
Some physicians do not recommend hair 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 hair waxing on the face as these medications tend to weaken the skin. Hair waxing should not be done on areas of skin affected by warts, pimples, moles, or rashes; or on skin that is irritated, chapped, or suffering from sunburn; or skin suffering from peeling, broken skin, or varicose veins.
