What should not be waxed over?

When considering what should not be waxed over, it is essential to recognize the sensitivity and potential reaction of different skin conditions to waxing. Waxing over a mole is not advisable because moles can vary in texture, sensitivity, and risk of irritation. The heat from the wax and the pulling action of waxing can cause discomfort or potential damage to the mole.

Additionally, moles should be monitored regularly for changes in appearance as they can represent a risk for skin cancer. Waxing over a mole might not only lead to irritation but also make it challenging to monitor for any changes that could signal a medical concern.

On the other hand, waxing over scar tissue, sunburned skin, or psoriasis presents its own set of concerns. Scar tissue can be more sensitive and prone to injury, sunburned skin can be irritated by the waxing process, and psoriasis could flare up due to the trauma of waxing. Therefore, while all these conditions should be approached with caution, waxing directly over a mole presents unique risks that could compromise skin health.
