Question 1

is there a hair removal product i can use to remove hair around the anus area?

Accepted Answer

Shave or Nair: Shaving is the typical way to remove these kinds of hair.  You can also use a depilatory cream such as nair, or wax it, as in a brazilian waxing.

Question 2

what could happen if hair removal cream went through the anus?

Accepted Answer

Most likely nothing: I assume you are talking about very small amounts and not a whole tube?
At worst local irritation of the anus or rectum (with local discomfort) which should pass in a few days, and most likely nothing.

Question 3

laser hair removal around the anus. is this a safe procedure?

Accepted Answer

Anal laser hair : Laser hair reduction for the anal region is a safe procedure. There are considerations such as ensuring patient comfort. We cool as we treat. Select patients require a topical anesthetic cream placed before treatment. Make sure you discuss any concerns with your treating provider.

Question 4

i use nair hair removal to shave n some of it got on my anus now its swollen. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Use some topical Preparation H.: The medication is good for hemorrhoids but it is also good for Burns and other open wounds although the company does not market it for that. Essentially with the Nair you have ended up with a chemical burn.

Question 5

getting laser hair removal so i have to shave inside my anus. it hurts and itches and i get bumps, any suggestions?

Accepted Answer

Avoid: i am not exactly clear on the scenario, but if you are prone to razor bumps, it is best to avoid shaving there. There are a number of personal clippers on the market that trim closely enough to leave little or no visible hair, without causing the irritation of shaving.

Question 6

what are the best hair removal methods?

Accepted Answer

Hair removal: Hair removal techniques depend on the location of where you want to have hair removed.  If it is dark hair then most methods including laser or intense pulse light can reduce and at times permanently prevent further hair growth.  Lighter hair remains tricky as their is no melanin in the hair to uptake the energy for lasers so waxing or vaniqua ( a topical medicine) maybe the safest way.

Question 7

how to make bikini hair removal less painful?

Accepted Answer

Alma Soprano Laser: Our soprano xli is probably the most comfortable lhr system on the planet.  It pulses lower energies, 10x/sec through a cooled tip, while in motion, which makes it much more comfortable and more effective.  Take a couple of Motrin an hour before, trim the hair down to stubble (not smooth) and have them use a potent topical anesthetic cream....Not a day at the beach, but great preparation for one.

Question 8

what is better: shaving or hair removal cream?

Accepted Answer

Cream, but...: Depilatory creams dissolve hairs so that they wipe away.  The hair left behind is usually softer than if it had been shaved.  Razors cut hair at an angle, making the regrowth look thicker & more likely to develop ingrown hairs & razor bumps.  The major downside to the creams is potential irritation & you need to use caution near the mucosa (mouth, vagina).  Electric razors are a good option, too.

Question 9

how to make electrolysis hair removal permanent?

Accepted Answer

Accuracy helps: Electrolysis requires very accurate targeting to insure hair follicle growth is stopped. Provider must carefully target the follicles from different sides, and often require additional touch ups to finish the process. Most used for isolated hairs (for example in chin area), laser more common for larger hair areas. It may leave small surface irregularities if repetition is needed to remove the prob.
