Hair Removal Made Easy

Body hair removal can be a tedious and painful process. It often leaves you feeling dissatisfied with the results while your skin itself feels inflamed and irritated after a session of waxing or shaving. At DermaLux Kelowna, we have consciously adopted sugaring as our hair removal method of choice to give you a unique and outstanding experience.


While it sounds more like a delicious baking technique, sugaring is, in fact, a safe, convenient, cost-effective, and eco-friendly hair removal process. It uses a simple paste made with natural ingredients, which is applied to various parts of your body and yanked off to give you the smooth skin you desire.


At DermaLux Kelowna, our experts have been delivering exceptional results for our clients through sugaring. If you have never tried sugaring before, our team will be more than happy to talk you through the process and help you understand its benefits. We promise that once you try sugaring, you will never want to go back to waxing or shaving again!

Sugaring vs Waxing

One of the most distinctive features of sugaring is the technique itself. While waxing requires the hair to be pulled against the direction of the growth, during sugaring, a room-temperature sugar paste is applied to your skin and yanked out in the direction of your hair itself.


This means lesser breakage as compared to waxing and lesser chances of a patchy, uneven job. The sugaring paste itself consists of natural ingredients that, unlike wax, don’t stick to your skin and help avoid inflammation and reaction.


The application technique is also quite different when it comes to sugaring. During a typical body wax, the esthetician will simply slather the wax all over your skin and perform the process. In contrast, the sugaring process involves methodically ensuring the paste reaches each of your hair follicles.


This extra level of care and attention makes sure that we get more of your hair without unnecessarily damaging your surrounding skin. Are you ready to upgrade to the latest method of hair removal? Simply get in touch with us to find out how you can benefit from this service.

Smoother Skin Every Time

At DermaLux Kelowna, we always focus on delivering flawless results with minimal hassle. Even during our hair removal treatment, we take care of your comfort at every step to ensure you have a satisfactory experience. Our sugaring technique helps us deliver smoother skin and better hair removal with zero damage to your skin.


By carefully applying our sugar solution to each of your hair follicles, we ensure better hair removal as compared to a regular waxing method. Our solution doesn’t stick to your skin cells or yank on your skin when pulled, and there are lesser chances of broken hair since sugaring pulls out the hair from the root. It also prevents hair growth for a longer period of time as compared to shaving. 


Additionally, the sugar solution we use is hypoallergenic and safe for your skin. This is why many people who are sensitive to waxing rely on sugaring for all their hair removal needs. Get in touch with us to find out how we can support and enhance your aesthetic journey of hair removal!

  • Who is It for?

    Everyone can take advantage of our sugaring techniques to rid their entire body of unwanted hair. It is especially useful to people who may be allergic to wax or have sensitive skin prone to redness. Since the sugared solution we use doesn’t actually adhere to your skin, the sugaring process only yanks out your hair and leaves your skin undamaged.

Before Your Appointment

Sugaring is a straightforward process, yet you can also play a role in making sure that you have as pleasant an experience as possible. Here are a few things you should keep in mind before your sugaring appointment with us, at DermaLux Kelowna.


Sugaring works best if your hair growth is at least a quarter of an inch long, which is about the size of a grain of rice. If it’s too short, you might want to consider waiting for a while to ensure better results. If your hair is too long, you can always trim it down or get our experts to help you with it.


It’s also recommended to exfoliate your skin with a brush or mitt for a few days before your appointment. This gets rid of any dead skin cells and helps the sugaring process work more effectively. Make sure to avoid applying any tanning products, chemical exfoliants, or retinoid creams before your sugaring session.


Finally, all you need to do during your sugaring session is to sit back and relax. Hence, make sure you dress in something comfortable and loose so that our experts can easily work with hair on all parts of your body.

After Your Appointment

While it is a safer hair removal alternative, sugaring can leave your skin feeling tender and sensitive for a while. In such cases, you may need to take a few precautions to ensure speedy recovery.


For starters, you can use a simple ointment or hydrocortisone cream on the affected area. If the treated area feels inflamed, an over-the-counter pain reliever can help reduce the swelling and dull the pain. Alternatively, you can use a simple cold compress to encourage faster healing.


For a few days, make sure you do not irritate the sugared skin in any way. This means no shaving or excess sun exposure to the affected area. In fact, avoid any activity that would cause you to sweat or build up bacteria on your affected skin areas.


In most cases, people experience only mild irritation that barely lasts for a few hours. However, our experts will always recommend following these guidelines to ensure your skin heals faster. Besides these points, no downtime is required after the procedure itself, and you can resume your normal day immediately after walking out of DermaLux Kelowna.

Why Choose Our Sugaring Services?

In our efforts to provide exceptional results through convenient and safe services, we chose sugaring to give you flawless hair removal. Consisting of natural ingredients that are not only safe for you but also good for the planet, it is perfect for all skin types and conditions. Sugaring not only provides exceptional hair removal but also naturally exfoliates your skin and leaves it looking healthy and clean.


As a hair removal technique, sugaring performs better than regular wax since it adheres to the roots and not your skin. It safely removes your hair from the follicle for smoother skin that lasts longer. The best part is that repeated sugaring sessions will, in fact, weaken your hair follicles and deliver improved results every single time.
