Avoiding Hot Water

After treatments such as waxing, laser hair removal, or chemical peels, it’s important to avoid hot water on the treated areas, as it can irritate the skin and prolong healing. Clients should be advised to use lukewarm or cool water when cleansing the treated area for at least 24-48 hours post-treatment. At SOS Wax and Skincare, emphasizing the importance of avoiding hot showers, baths, or steam rooms after these procedures helps to prevent complications and ensures that the skin recovers quickly and smoothly. Hot water can exacerbate redness and sensitivity, so it’s crucial for clients to follow these guidelines to maintain the results of their treatment and protect their skin.
