Facial Waxing
Whether you need eyebrow waxing in Waterloo or need to get rid of hair from your entire face, our range of facial waxing services have you covered. You can go with a full-face waxing session for a smooth and hairless face or address specific areas of concern such as the brows, lip, chin, and cheek waxing services at Waterloo Medical Cosmetics.
Full Body Waxing
Only a full body wax near you can give you the confidence to be truly summer-ready. You can choose a comprehensive experience where we patiently help eliminate unwanted hair from all over your body. Depending on your needs, we can also focus on specific areas of your body through our services like underarms waxing near you and leg waxing near you.
Unlike shaving waxing will leave you with exfoliated and supple skin, without the risks of nicks, cuts, or razor burns. Since it pulls the hair from its roots, it delays the regrowth process, giving you superior lasting results. Once your hair grows back, you'll notice it's finer and easier to eliminate.
When performed correctly by an expert, a waxing session is exactly what you need to address unwanted body hair. It’s an effective and long-lasting solution that benefits your skin because of its exfoliating effect.
Common Questions
What is a laser and how do they work?
Lasers use specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin or hair follicle. By adjusting the wavelengths of the light, the intensity and the surface area affected, our Skin Specialists can cause a wide range of changes to the skin.
Are these treatments safe?
We understand it is natural to worry about any treatments that take place around the eyes, be it lash lifts, extensions, or even microblading. At Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, our experts take utmost care to ensure our procedures don't harm your eyes. We also use proven products which don’t damage the sensitive skin around your eyes.
What does it feel like and are there side effects?
Although our laser’s have a large range of uses, there can be side effects. Post treatment you may notice some mild burning/tightening sensation, redness, swelling, which is completely normal. It would be unusual for pain to linger or for blistering to occur, occasionally the laser can cause cold-sores to flare, we will not work on an area with active cold-sores, this will be discussed during your consultation.
The sensation during the procedure has sometimes been compared to a light rubber band snapping against the area that becomes less noticeable after a few minutes, we offer numbing and cooling for patient comfort, but most clients say it is quick and painless. In particular, our Coolpeel laser, is used for skin resurfacing to create glowing skin, it was specifically designed for minimal discomfort and downtime, creating only a mild “sunburn-like” redness for a day or so and leaves you with the smoothest, glowing skin.
To reduce the chance of complications, we’ll send you home with post-treatment instructions and a list of do’s and don’ts. In particular, you’ll want to avoid touching the area, certain medications like retinol and strenuous activities for a few days. Not to worry, our Skin Specialists will guide you through the entire process, so you know what to do!
