HAIR REMOVAL Depilatories
and Vaniqa for Facial Hair
|
Depilatories
Depilatories are applied
directly on the hair in the form of a gel, foam, lotion, or cream.
They
have a high amount of alkaline that dissolves the hair so that you can wipe it
off. To
get the best results, use a nubby cloth to wipe off the
depilatory and use short strokes
with a little pressure.
The
hair will grow back in a few days, so this is not a permanent solution.
Depilatories
should never be
used for eyebrows or around the eyes, or on inflamed and broken
skin.
The alkaline can be caustic and can
irritate your skin, so always do a patch test to
determine if you have
any allergy or if your skin is too sensitive for a depilatory. It’s best
to do the test in an area that is not obvious in case you have a bad
reaction. Depilatories
also tend to have a sharp
odor.
Vaniqa for Facial

Vaniqa is a prescription-only topical
cream for reducing and inhibiting the growth of
unwanted facial hair.
It takes at least 4 weeks to see any results. The most frequent side
effects are adverse skin reactions..
