Is it normal for white bumps to form after having a brazilian wax done?


Experiencing white bumps post-Brazilian wax, especially if it's your first time, is not uncommon. These bumps often occur when the hair is coarse and deeply rooted in the skin. At Pia Esthetics Day Spa, we understand that this might be concerning, but there's no need to worry. A simple and effective remedy is to gently cleanse the area with antibacterial soap and apply an antibacterial lotion, similar to those used for treating breakouts.

However, if you notice that these bumps appear consistently after each waxing session, it might indicate a condition known as Folliculitis, which is an inflammation of the hair follicles. For more detailed information about Folliculitis, you can visit MedlinePlus.

In some cases, trying a different waxing provider might help determine if the issue is technique-related. However, at Pia Esthetics Day Spa, we pride ourselves on using techniques and products that minimize such reactions. If you have any concerns or persistent issues, we encourage you to discuss them with our skilled estheticians. They can offer personalized advice and solutions tailored to your skin's needs.
