The growing popularity of wax depilation, especially genital waxing, has raised concerns in both the scientific and medical communities. One of the key issues is the potential dangers associated with the procedure, including the practice of double dipping, which can lead to serious health risks.
The Risks of Waxing
Waxing, particularly in sensitive areas like the bikini line, can be risky. The wax must be heated to a high temperature to become liquefied, increasing the chances of burns and scarring. Additionally, the aggressive removal of hair against its natural direction can tear the delicate skin, leading to rashes, ingrown hairs, and infections. Cross-contamination in the wax room is also a significant concern, as the removal of too much skin can create an entry point for bacteria, potentially leading to infections like staph and folliculitis.
The Safe Alternative: Alexandria Professional® Sugaring
Unlike waxing, the Alexandria Professional® sugaring hair removal methodology is a much safer and gentler process. Our sugaring paste is made from natural ingredients, is hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, and even edible. It’s applied at body temperature, eliminating the risk of burns, and it doesn’t adhere to live skin cells, which reduces the risk of skin irritation and infection.
Our sugaring paste only removes hair and exfoliates dead skin cells, leaving your skin smooth and healthy. It’s also safe for use on sensitive skin, including areas affected by spider veins, varicose veins, eczema, psoriasis, and keratosis. Plus, with its high concentration of sugar, bacteria cannot breed in the jar, significantly lowering the risk of infection.
