What happens in a waxing treatment?
The treatment area is cleaned and prepared before wax is applied to the skin. The wax is then removed quickly, taking the unwanted hair out from the root rather than cutting it at the skin’s surface.
Because the full hair is removed, it takes longer for regrowth to become visible than it does after shaving. Hair grows at different rates, so regular waxing every four to five weeks can make the results easier to maintain.
Face & Body Waxing FAQs
At Skinworks we offer advanced consultations to chat about your skin concerns and the treatment and skincare options that will get you the best results!
How long should my hair be before waxing?
Hair should be around 0.5 to 1 cm long so the wax can grip it properly. If the hair is longer, trim it before your appointment rather than shaving it off.
How soon after shaving can I have a wax?
Allow around two to three weeks of growth after shaving. The exact time depends on how quickly your hair grows, so use the hair length as your guide.
Does waxing hurt?
Waxing causes a quick pulling or stinging feeling as the hair is removed. The level of discomfort depends on the treatment area and your sensitivity. Many people find regular appointments become easier as the regrowth becomes softer.
How should I get ready for a waxing appointment?
Arrive with clean, dry skin and avoid applying moisturiser, oil or deodorant to the treatment area. Gentle exfoliation the day before can help remove dead skin, but don’t exfoliate irritated or sunburned skin.
Can I have waxing if I use retinol or acne medication?
Retinol, tretinoin, isotretinoin and some antibiotics can make the skin more likely to tear or become irritated. Avoid retinol for two to five days before facial waxing. Waxing shouldn’t be carried out while taking isotretinoin or for six months after finishing it. Check suitability before booking if you use prescription acne medication.
What should I avoid after waxing?
For the first 24 hours, avoid hot showers, saunas, swimming, strenuous exercise and scented products on the waxed area. Loose clothing can also help reduce rubbing after body waxing.
How can I prevent ingrown hairs after waxing?
Wait two to three days, then begin gently exfoliating the area two or three times a week. Keep the skin moisturised and avoid picking at hairs or bumps.
How long does redness last after waxing?
Mild redness or sensitivity usually settles within a few hours. Seek medical advice if swelling, blistering, increasing pain or redness lasts longer than two days.

De-Arna BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been seeing great results with my skin concerns at Skinworks Sangita is very professional and welcoming She took the time to discuss my concerns thoroughly Highly reccomend Sangita CreeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Skinworks Clinic is absolutely lovely and they really care about doing what’s best for your skin! Highly recommend coming in for a consultation and facial with Sangita - she’s the best 🩷 Sangita introduced me to the Dermalyte LED mask and red light therapy. It has been the best and most effective treatment for my facial eczema! Since starting using my Dermalyte flares clear up much faster and my skin stays looking healthy and less dull. If you’re looking for something that has lasting results I highly recommend! Sangita is very knowledgeable and works to find a treatment that suits you!! StephanieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience! My first facial service here in NZ & I was very happy with the process and results of my facial. Skinworks clinic is located in a convient area, clean space with a great amount of self-care services that are reasonably priced. I booked my second facial before I left :) Anri GTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Update on healing : I had my 3rd therapy and it’s improved so much! If you can afford it, I definitely recommend getting a LED Light mask. BUT please remember to always follow the aftercare instructions if you’re getting plasmapen done!! —————————————————————————— Update on healing : Had the 2nd LED light therapy. As always, Sangita is always welcoming and friendly. The LEF therapy is definitely working. But if you’re Asian and considering having a Plasma done especially on Upper lip, please adhere to the instructions. Trust me, it’s very important. And be patient. It does take time to heal!! —————————————————————————— ↓further to my previous post: I’ve done my first Plasmapen session on my nose and upper lip with Sangita. She was very welcoming and friendly, and very assuring. She has again explained the risk factors and advised why two small areas are the best options to go ahead today when I said I wanted full face. Im looking forward to my next appointment! —————————————————————————— I’ve done a long research on Plasma Pen treatment and found this place, but I was very hesitant to go ahead. Sangita has kindly called me and gave me a thorough explanation and never pushed me to go ahead with the treatment. I haven’t had the treatment yet but already rating 5. Looking forward to it. Gaby MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After my first appointment at skin works I knew I was in the right place. I had never had the experience before where someone had taken such time to get to know me and my skin before suggesting a treatment or product. I totally trust Sangita and have already seen huge improvements in my skin texture and tone after only a couple of months. Alex CTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sangita is the best!! I'm on a really strict budget and she works magic with it. I always leave with a clean, happy face. She's so gentle and understanding, I highly recommend seeing her if you're new to skincare or intimidated by it. Can't wait for my next appointment ☺️Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 85 reviewsVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
