Your hair must be at least 1/4" long - at least 4 weeks since your last wax or 3 weeks since you last shaved. Coming in too soon may leave you with some persistent stubble and roots may still remain.
Taking a warm shower and gently exfoliating the skin prior to treatment will provide an easier exit of the hair follicles and ensure a smoother wax. However don’t worry if this is not possible for you, your waxing treatment can still proceed without complications.
Impeccable hygiene is a must or service may be refused. Inappropriate behaviour will not be tolerated; this is a professional waxing service. La Clinica reserves the right to refuse treatment where it is deemed to be a risk to the health of the client or the therapist.
Avoid heat related activities such as hot baths, steam rooms and tanning immediately before or after your waxing treatment.
Do not wax if you are on any skin sensitive medications such as Accutane or Retin-A. This may cause the skin to rupture due to the heat of the wax.
We use an organic pre-wax cleanser to remove traces of creams, gels or oils from your delicate skin to ensure the wax adheres properly.
Using only premium quality wax, and our South American waxing techniques, we gently remove the hair by the root for a virtually painless experience. Guaranteeing a reduction of hair growth - even after your first treatment at La Clinica
Next, we apply pre-wax organic oil to ensure the wax adheres to the hairs and not your skin. This also helps create a natural protective barrier between the wax and your delicate skin.
Last, we pamper your delicate skin with either post-wax organic oil or gel depending on the body part.
Waxing, unlike shaving, removes hair directly from the root, leaving the skin nice and smooth for weeks. If done professionally, regular and consistent waxing (every 4-6 weeks), will result in regrowth that is softer and often more sparse. Waxing, is also a natural hair removal treatment.
Never. We take cleanliness seriously. We use disposable applicators, bed liners and gloves for each and every service, and implements such as tweezers are sterilized.
Not a problem! Just inform us that its your first wax and we’ll walk you through the entire process step by step. Remember, since its your first waxing treatment and the hair follicles are rooted and at their strongest, it can often take 2-3 waxing cycles for super smooth results.

Super Speedo treatment: A triangle or strip of hair is left at the front. All other hair from the speedo area is removed.

The recommended time between waxing treatments is 4-6 weeks.
Strip removes hair quickly and effectively using a cotton hair-removal strip. We use this method for legs, arms and back treatments. Hardwax hardens and shrink-wraps around the hair follicles and is peeled off without the aid of hair-removal strips, taking the hair with it. Hardwax is recommended for sensitive skin and can only be applied to smaller, delicate areas such as the face, underarm and bikini area. La Clinica only uses premium quality waxes for all treatments.
The recommended time to wax before your holiday or event is 2-3 days. This will allow any redness to pass. However, it is ideal to come in for at least 1 full waxing cycle before your holiday or event.
As your hormones and sensitivities are kicking in, getting waxed right before or during this time may be more uncomfortable than usual. The best time for your bikini wax treatment is mid cycle, however be advised that you can still proceed with your waxing treatment if you wish by using a tampon.
Not at all, all of our waxing treatments simply require you to lie on either your front or back.
