If we haven't yet given you enough evidence that laser hair removal is FAR superior to waxing or shaving,, then you might still be experiencing ingrown hairs and razor burn bumps. Of course, the heat from the laser during a laser hair removal treatment kills the bacteria that gathers under the skin and in the follicles preventing this bothersome side effect. But if you're still shaving and waxing and getting these rascally razor rashes, and you aren't ready to zap them with the laser - we have some a product you need to know about. It's called Tend Skin® solution, and it is a great topical treatment for these painful bumps and ingrown hairs.
Of course, the guys get a hall pass because we do not do laser hair reduction on the face typically. (although it has been done, every situation is case by case and tailored to suit your skincare needs) But - anywhere you shave - there is opportunity for razor bumps and razor burn. This itchy situation occurs when the growing facial hairs either are pulled, curl
over and under and back into the follicle, (backwards) resulting in a bump. And since there's usually some bacteria residing on the skin, these can easily become inflamed and infected. Of course, if the bumps aren't from shaving - then they are probably ingrown. (on their own) Ingrown
hairs occur when hair has been shaved, waxed or removed - and it's growing back in, or trying - and fails to make it out of the skin surface. The
hairs curl inside the follicles back under itself, and under the skin creating a similar spot, and possible inflamed or infected bump.
Tend Skin® can be used before shaving, waxing or even before laser hair removal, because it acts as an antiseptic and 'bump preventative' if you will. At Fit and Beautiful Medical Spa, we're always looking for ways to help you be your most fit and beautiful, as well as resolve skincare issues along the way. Ready to try Tend Skin® Solution?

If you sometimes remove the unwanted hair and suffer skin bump after that, finding a good razor bump treatment product is necessary. My man always uses the Organic Tea Tree Anti-Bump Lotion. It brings him the feelings of cooling, smoothing and comfort.
