Professional Face & Body Waxing at Newton Med Spa

Enjoy smooth, long-lasting results with professional waxing services at Newton Med Spa. Unlike shaving, waxing removes hair directly from the root, leaving skin softer and smoother for weeks. Whether you're maintaining your brows, removing unwanted facial hair, or treating larger body areas, our experienced providers offer safe, effective waxing services in a comfortable environment.

With regular treatments, many clients notice finer, softer hair regrowth and less frequent maintenance over time.

What Is Waxing?

Waxing is a professional hair removal treatment that uses warm wax to remove unwanted hair from the root. Because the hair is removed beneath the surface of the skin, results last significantly longer than shaving while helping reduce razor stubble and irritation.

Professional waxing also provides gentle exfoliation by removing dead skin cells along with unwanted hair, leaving skin feeling smoother and refreshed.

What Results Can I Expect?

Results are visible immediately following treatment. Most clients enjoy smooth, hair-free skin for approximately 3 to 6 weeks, depending on their natural hair growth cycle. With consistent waxing appointments, hair often grows back finer, softer, and more slowly over time.

Recovery & Aftercare

There is little to no downtime after waxing. Mild redness or sensitivity is common immediately after treatment and usually resolves within a few hours. For the first 24 to 48 hours, we recommend:

  • Avoiding hot tubs, saunas, and hot showers
  • Avoiding strenuous exercise and excessive sweating
  • Wearing loose-fitting clothing after body waxing
  • Avoiding direct sun exposure and tanning
  • Using gentle skincare products on treated areas
  • Waiting until any sensitivity has resolved before exfoliating

Following these aftercare recommendations helps minimize irritation and supports healthy skin.

Waxing
Frequently Asked Questions

Hair should be approximately ¼ inch long (about the length of a grain of rice) for the most effective removal.

Most clients schedule waxing appointments every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on their individual hair growth cycle.

Most people experience brief discomfort as the hair is removed, but the sensation lasts only a few seconds. Many clients find waxing becomes more comfortable with regular treatments.

We recommend avoiding shaving between waxes. Shaving disrupts the hair growth cycle and can make future waxing appointments less effective.

It's best to avoid applying makeup for several hours following facial waxing, especially if your skin is sensitive, to reduce the risk of irritation.

Waxing may not be recommended if you:

  • Are taking prescription retinoids such as Accutane
  • Have recently used strong exfoliants or chemical peels
  • Have sunburned skin
  • Have active skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area

Be sure to let your provider know about any medications, recent skincare treatments, or skin concerns before your appointment.

Regular moisturizing and gentle exfoliation several days after your appointment can help minimize ingrown hairs. Your provider may also recommend professional skincare products to support healthy skin between waxing appointments.
