Upper Lip and Chin Wax

Upper lip and chin wax, what it includes

This treatment focuses on two small but noticeable areas, with a clean finish and comfortable aftercare.

• Removal of hair from the upper lip area, including the corners where needed
• Removal of hair from the chin area, including the centre and along the jawline if required
• Skin preparation to help the wax grip hair rather than skin
• Careful wax application in small sections for a precise result
• Tweezing of any remaining fine hairs where appropriate
• Soothing product applied afterwards to help reduce redness and sensitivity

A neat facial hair tidy up for everyday confidence

An upper lip and chin wax works well if you notice shadow, coarse regrowth, or fluffy hair that shows more under daylight and make up. It is also a good choice if shaving causes stubble, fast regrowth, or irritation. Many clients book it regularly to keep the area consistently smooth and low maintenance.

How your upper lip and chin wax appointment runs

The appointment is designed to be time savvy and typically takes around 10 minutes. Your therapist will check the area, cleanse and prep the skin, then wax in small sections to keep things controlled and comfortable. If any hairs are too short to wax cleanly, you will be advised on the best timing for your next visit.

Aftercare steps that help keep the skin calm

Expect a little warmth or redness straight after, this usually settles quickly.

• Avoid make up, heavy skincare, or touching the area for the rest of the day where possible
• Keep heat off the skin for 24 hours, including hot baths, saunas, and intense exercise
• Skip exfoliation and active ingredients for 48 hours, including retinoids and strong acids
• Apply a light, fragrance free moisturiser if the skin feels dry
• Use SPF daily, especially on the upper lip and chin

When to postpone an upper lip and chin wax

If your skin is sunburnt, broken, very sensitised, or you are using prescription strength retinoids, it may be better to wait. Let us know if you have had a recent peel, laser treatment, or have an active cold sore, as waxing may not be suitable on the day. A quick chat before you start will help keep the treatment safe and comfortable.
