HYPERPIGMENTATION TREATMENT — $130
Ingrown hairs are frustrating on their own — but the dark spots and uneven skin tone they leave behind can be just as discouraging. At The Wax Specialists in Manchester, NH, our Hyperpigmentation Protocol for Ingrown Hairs is a corrective treatment designed specifically to address post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation caused by ingrown hairs.
This specialized in-spa treatment combines professional-grade exfoliation, enzyme therapy, targeted extractions, and high-frequency technology to reduce discoloration, calm inflammation, and help prevent future ingrowns. Whether you’re dealing with dark spots on your bikini line, underarms, legs, or any other area prone to ingrown hairs, our Board-Certified Estheticians will create a targeted treatment plan for your skin.
We serve clients throughout Manchester, Bedford, Litchfield, and surrounding southern New Hampshire communities.
The Problem with Ingrown Hair Hyperpigmentation
The Problem
When ingrown hairs become trapped beneath the skin, the surrounding tissue becomes inflamed. As the inflammation heals, it can leave behind dark patches called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). These spots can linger for weeks or months — especially on sensitive areas like the bikini line, underarms, and legs — and over-the-counter products often aren’t enough to clear them.
Our Solution
Our Hyperpigmentation Protocol combines mandelic acid exfoliation, professional enzyme treatment, targeted extractions, and high-frequency technology in a single corrective session. This multi-step approach treats the root causes — trapped hairs, bacteria, and inflammation — while actively brightening and evening out your skin tone.
Your In-Spa Treatment Protocol
Every hyperpigmentation treatment at The Wax Specialists follows a structured, multi-step protocol performed by our Board-Certified Estheticians.
1
Cleanse
The treatment area is cleansed with a Mandelic Acid Cleanser to gently exfoliate, remove buildup, and begin the brightening process. Mandelic acid is ideal for hyperpigmentation because it penetrates evenly and is well-tolerated by most skin types.
2
Enzyme Treatment
A Raspberry Enzyme Treatment is applied to the skin. This professional-grade enzyme works to dissolve dead skin cells and surface debris, preparing the skin for extractions and allowing corrective products to penetrate more effectively.
3
Extractions
Your esthetician carefully performs extractions to remove trapped ingrown hairs and clear congested follicles. This step is essential for preventing the cycle of irritation and hyperpigmentation from continuing.
4
High Frequency
High-frequency technology is applied to the treatment area to target bacteria, calm inflammation, and promote healing. This step helps prevent future ingrown hairs from forming.
5
Corrective Treatment
The session concludes with a targeted corrective treatment to address hyperpigmentation directly, helping to brighten and even out skin tone in the treatment area.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes hyperpigmentation from ingrown hairs?
When an ingrown hair becomes trapped beneath the skin, it triggers an inflammatory response. As that inflammation heals, it can leave behind dark patches called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). This is especially common in the bikini area, underarms, and legs. Our treatment is designed to address both the trapped hairs and the resulting discoloration.
How many treatments will I need to see results?
Many clients see a visible improvement after their first treatment. However, for more pronounced hyperpigmentation, a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 3–4 weeks apart typically produces the best results. Your esthetician will recommend a treatment plan based on the severity of your hyperpigmentation and your skin type.
Is this treatment painful?
Most clients find this treatment very comfortable. The mandelic acid cleanser and enzyme treatment feel like a gentle warming sensation. Extractions may cause mild discomfort depending on the area, and the high-frequency device produces a pleasant buzzing sensation. Our estheticians are trained to keep you comfortable throughout the entire process.
