Waxing at True Medispa in Twickenham

Waxing

We use two types of wax for hair removal at True Medispa aesthetics clinic in Twickenham:

Tea Tree is a high-quality antiseptic wax which is particularly good for more sensitive skin types and larger areas.

Hot Lycon uses resins, natural ingredients and aromatherapy oils to remove hair as short as 1mm  - ideal for intimate waxing.

Lycon waxing shrink-wraps around the hair and doesn’t stick to the skin. When the wax is removed, it pulls from the hair follicle root, preventing hair breakage, ingrown hairs and the painful sting you can experience with other kinds of wax.

What To Expect From Waxing

  • Fast, efficient and effective hair removal
  • Smooth, hair-free skin
  • Our beauty therapists will ensure you are comfortable during your waxing appointment

Waxing - At A Glance

Waxing is a safe and reliable way of removing body hair. Unlike shaving, waxing can keep unwanted body hair away for up to 6 weeks. By adding waxing to your beauty regime, you will make your skin glow with radiance while feeling smooth, fresh and clean.

Treatment Time

The treatment time varies depending on the areas being treated. We will let you know how long your treatment is going to take.

Cost

The costs vary depending on the area being treated. Waxing prices range from only £13 for areas on the face. View our Price List.

Recovery Time

Irritation and allergy-free. There are minimal chemicals involved in the waxing process, so rarely does waxing cause any skin irritation or allergic reaction.

Aftercare

Exfoliate the day before your appointment. Don’t apply body lotion on the day of your appointment. Use a deodorant without antiperspirant if you are having an underarm wax as the hair will be easier to remove.

Preparation 

Avoid any hot treatments for 24 hours post-waxing (bath, sauna, steam room, tanning bed).

Duration of Results

After waxing, hair usually takes between 4 to 6 weeks to regrow and the hair often comes back finer.

The Benefits of Waxing

  • Quick, efficient and effective hair removal of facial hair for men and women
  • No downtime
  • Safe and reliable way of removing body hair
  • Instant hair-free results for up to 6 weeks

Guest Testimonials

Lesley Carruthers
True Beauty in Twickenham is an exceptional skin care clinic. I have been coming for years. I love the expertise and professionalism of the staff. Fran and Charlotte are amazing. I had an alkaline wash this week and my skin looks lovely. In a few weeks I will be having electrolysis and IPL top up. Last year\'s IPL course reduced my rosacea and made my skin look fresh. It boosted my confidence. Looking forward to trying the beautify eyes treatment soon.
