Waxing – hair removal in Zurich
Excessive hair growth on the arms, legs or in the bikini line is often an undesirable feature. Many people feel uncomfortable with hair on different parts of the body, whether for reasons of fashion, self-confidence or simply for personal well-being. Conventional methods such as shaving or depilatory creams usually only offer short-term solutions and can also cause skin irritation. Noticeable hair stubble often forms after just a few days.
At clinic utoquai we offer you an effective and long-lasting solution: waxing. Our experienced specialists use high-quality products and state-of-the-art techniques to provide you with thorough and gentle hair removal. As a rule, we can rid every area of the body of annoying body hair. Women usually prefer hair removal on the arms, legs, armpit or genital area. For men, waxing on the back, stomach and chest is very trendy.
In the classic waxing method, wax is applied to the corresponding region of the body and then removed together with the hair. The result is smooth, hair-free skin that lasts for weeks. Trust in our expertise and experience the advantages of professional treatment in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere.

What preparations do you need to make before a waxing treatment?
Give the hair at least 1-2 weeks to grow before treatment to achieve an optimal hair length for the application. Recently shaved parts of the body cannot be removed well. One day before hair removal, you should avoid creams and lotions. When removing hair from the face, do not use any make-up on the day of treatment.
How does professional waxing work at clinic utoquai?
In the well-known waxing, hair removal is carried out via an applied wax mass.
At the beginning of a treatment, we always advise you in detail about your options and determine the areas where you would like to have a waxing carried out. We will also explain the entire process and answer all your questions.
The first step of the actual waxing is to prepare the skin. Your skin will be carefully cleansed to remove dirt, oil, and skin debris that could interfere with the waxing process. The heated wax is then applied evenly to the areas of the body that are to be freed from hair. The warmth of the wax opens the pores, making it easier to remove the hair. Once the wax has cooled and hardened slightly, it is removed with a quick movement against the direction of hair growth. This process is repeated until all unwanted hair is removed from the treated area.
The entire waxing process usually takes between 20 and 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area to be treated.
What aftercare should be considered?
With careful aftercare, you will help to avoid skin irritation after waxing and achieve the best possible result.
Immediately after the treatment, you should protect the treated skin areas from excessive heat, direct sunlight and intense sweating. This means that you should refrain from visiting saunas, solariums and intensive sports activities for the next 24 to 48 hours.
Likewise, it is advisable to wear loose clothing after waxing to avoid unnecessary friction and irritation on sensitive skin. We also recommend that you regularly nourish your skin with a mild, moisturizing lotion specially formulated for sensitive skin. Not only does this help keep the skin soft and supple, but it also reduces the risk of ingrown hairs.
What results can you expect?
Depending on the hair structure, the skin remains free of further hair for up to four weeks after hair removal with waxing. This offers an enormous advantage, especially in summer, as the daily, time-consuming shaving is unnecessary. The skin also feels softer, as the waxing not only removes the hair, but also dead skin cells, which can lead to a noticeably smoother complexion.
With each subsequent treatment, hair growth tends to weaken, hair grows back finer, and intervals between treatments may increase. Stubble formation as with shaving is not to be feared with waxing.
How much does wax hair removal cost?
The costs for a professionally performed waxing are basically based on the position and size of the body area to be treated. Prices start at CHF 20.00 for waxing on the chin, for example. For intimate waxing or Brazilian waxing, you can expect costs from CHF 120.00.
