Watch This Before Using Hair Removal Creams ⚠️Dermatology Tips
⚠️ I’ve been seeing more chemical burns from hair removal creams, both in my dermatology office and all over social media ! If you’re using these creams, here’s how to avoid burns and irritation:
1️⃣ Always patch test – Test on a small area of skin before full application.2️⃣ Follow the instructions – Don’t exceed the recommended time (even if it doesn’t feel ‘done’).3️⃣ Avoid sensitive areas – Stay away from broken, irritated, or sensitive skin.4️⃣ Moisturize afterward – Soothe your skin with a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer.5️⃣ If it stings, stop – Tingling or burning means your skin is reacting – rinse it off immediately.
⚠️Avoid if you have sensitive, eczema prone skin – the ingredients in depilatory creams can irritate and weaken your skin barrier.
