Stuck Between Waxing and IPL? Let’s Compare

If you’re deciding between IPL hair removal and traditional waxing in Pakistan, you’re not alone. Waxing has been the go-to for years, but more women are now switching to at-home IPL devices for safer, longer-lasting results. In this guide, we compare both methods to help you make the smart choice for your skin and lifestyle — especially with trusted solutions from The Lux Skins.

What Is Waxing?

Waxing pulls hair directly from the root using hot or cold wax. It's usually done every 3–4 weeks, either at home or in a salon. While it gives smoother skin initially, it comes with:

  • Pain during each session

  • Redness or bumps after use

  • Ongoing salon appointments and costs

What Is IPL Hair Removal?

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a modern method that uses light to disable the hair follicle, reducing regrowth over time. Our IPL devices are safe for Pakistani skin tones and provide pain-free hair removal right from your home.
