Waxing may have some side effects including, but not limited to: redness, scabbing, bruising, swelling, tenderness, hyperpigmentation, bumps, breakouts, ingrown hairs, and other histamine reactions. *These reactions are rare, but do happen on occasion. They may be exacerbated by the use of certain medications, particularly those used for anti-acne and anti-aging treatments. Example of these are: retinoid, retin-a, renova, accutane, and alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), like glycolic acid. Face waxing should be avoided while using these products.
