Waxing & hair removal
June 20 2024 8:59pmWaxing
If your medication contains tretinoin, do not wax any facial area, including your eyebrows. It's possible that the top layer of skin could be removed with the wax. This can leave hyperpigmentation that may take months to fade.
If tretinoin is not one of the ingredients in your medication, waxing is generally fine.
Laser
Laser hair removal may or may not be okay depending on the type of laser and the ingredients in your Curology medication. Be sure to check with your hair removal professional before the procedure and provide your formula’s ingredients. You may be asked to stop your Curology medication for several days before and/or after the procedure. Follow the advice of the hair removal professional.
Threading & tweezing
Threading and tweezing are generally considered okay, regardless of the ingredients in your medication.
For any further questions about hair removal, please reach out to your dermatology provider and they’ll be happy to give you personalized advice!
