How can i make waxing less painful?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
I am not sure: that there is a way to make it less painful. I am not an expert in the field but the waxing facility may offer a product which may numb or help with pain from such a procedure. I think of topical lidocaine, but I don't know if that is practical to use all over the body. Discuss with your waxing specialist. Best of luck!

Reducing pain: I try not to promote any products. But you can use products like No Scream Cream which is about 20% Benzocaine. Consider taking an anti-inflammatory 30 to 45 minutes before waxing.
