Is It Safe to Use Hair Removal Creams During Pregnancy?

How Do Hair Removal Creams Work?

Hair removal creams are also known as depilatory creams. They contain certain ingredients that may damage the keratin structure in body hair. Since keratin plays a key role in bonding each strand of hair and forming shape, applying these creams may cause the hair to break and then detach from the skin. As a result, you may easily wipe the hair away without the need for waxing, plucking, or shaving. [2]
