What is the minimum interval between Lycon hair removal treatments?

The minimum interval between Lycon waxing treatments is approximately 4 weeks. This period is optimal to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment and allow the hair to grow back to the appropriate length. This break also allows the skin to regenerate and for the hairs to enter the growth phase, increasing the effectiveness of the next session. While 4 weeks is the recommended interval, the minimum period may be shorter or longer depending on individual needs and body characteristics.

Why is 4 weeks the recommended interval between treatments?

Hair growth occurs in cycles consisting of three phases:

Anagen (growth phase) – The hair is actively growing and is connected to the hair follicle.
Catagen (regression phase) – Hair growth stops, and the follicle begins to shrink.
Telogen (resting phase) – The hair dies and eventually falls out, and a new hair begins to form in its place.

During Lycon waxing, only hairs in the anagen phase are effectively removed. To allow new hairs to enter the growth phase, it is necessary to maintain an interval of about 4 weeks between treatments. Regular waxing within this cycle gradually weakens the hairs, causing them to grow back slower, thinner, and less visible over time.

Can waxing be done earlier than 4 weeks?

In some cases, the treatment can be performed earlier, but its effectiveness may be limited. A shorter interval between treatments (e.g., 2-3 weeks) means that many hairs may still be in the resting or regression phase and not ready for removal. As a result, the procedure may not yield full results, and frequent hair removal can place additional stress on the skin.

Individual factors influencing the minimum interval

Some people may require a slightly adjusted treatment schedule depending on their hair growth rate, skin type, and personal preferences.

Factors that can shorten or extend the interval:

Hair growth rate – Individuals with rapid hair regrowth may need to schedule a session after 3 weeks.
Skin type – Sensitive skin may require more time to regenerate, with a minimum interval of 5-6 weeks.
Season – During summer, when the skin is more exposed, many people opt for more frequent treatments to maintain smooth skin.

Optimal hair length before waxing

For waxing to be effective, hair should be between 0.3 and 1 cm in length. If the hair is shorter than 0.3 cm, the wax may not grip it sufficiently. On the other hand, overly long hair may make the procedure less comfortable and harder to perform. In such cases, trimming the hair before the session may be recommended.

Our opinion

The minimum interval between Lycon waxing treatments is 4 weeks, which ensures maximum effectiveness and reduces the risk of skin irritation. Properly scheduled treatments help achieve long-lasting smooth skin and gradually weaken hair growth. Adhering to the recommended waxing cycle makes each subsequent treatment less painful, while hair regrows more slowly and in smaller amounts.
