Advantages of Laser Hair Removal for Athletes

  • Emilio Arrung

Abstract

Waxing offers many advantages to athletes, from improved aerodynamics, especially in swimmers, to faster healing of injuries suffered, particularly in cyclists. At the same time, it allows greater penetration of the creams and improves the softness of the massages. It facilitates hygiene and helps to better grip the bandages. Among the different techniques, hair removal stands out for being definitive, precise and painless.
