Personally I did waxing recently....and didn't have any side effects. Due to numbness i felt strange sensation after and i was not comfortable and i kept watching myself for any infection signs....

i used epilator...and it hasn't caused any problem ...

Note:

Take care when removing hair from under arm. using a well maintained electric razor is safest. waxing isn't recommended because it can cause damage to the skin and might increase the risk of infection.

Depilatory creams may be used with caution, but apply the cream to another part of the body first to check skin reactions.

Manish

Hello NTyagi,

I would suggest epilators to be the safest option of removing unwanted hair from the treated arm and in general too. And it is price wise reasonable as well relative to waxing!

Hope you find the suitable solution!

Regards

Isha
