Long-Term Effects of Boyzillian Wax and Laser Hair Removal
When it comes to personal grooming, achieving smooth, hair-free skin is a priority for many. For men, the Boyzillian wax (a male Brazilian wax) and laser hair removal are two of the most popular options for removing unwanted hair in the pubic region. However, not all hair removal methods are created equal, especially when you consider long-term effects.
At Smooth Kitty, we specialize in advanced laser hair removal treatments that offer lasting results, minimal discomfort, and an end to the constant cycle of temporary fixes like waxing. This article explores the pros and cons of Boyzillian wax and laser hair removal, focusing on why laser hair removal is the superior long-term choice.
What is Boyzillian Wax?
A Boyzillian wax is the male version of a Brazilian wax, where hair is removed from the pubic area, including the front, back, and everything in between. The process involves applying hot wax to the skin and quickly pulling it off to remove hair from the root.
How Boyzillian Wax Works:
- Preparation: The area is cleaned, and a thin layer of wax is applied.
- Hair Removal: A strip of cloth or paper is pressed onto the wax and then pulled off in the opposite direction of hair growth.
- Temporary Smoothness: Hair-free skin lasts for about 3–6 weeks before regrowth occurs.
While waxing provides immediate smoothness, the long-term effects reveal several downsides that make it less appealing than laser hair removal.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a more advanced and permanent method of hair reduction. It uses focused light energy to target and destroy hair follicles, preventing future hair growth. Over a series of sessions, laser hair removal provides a significant reduction in hair density, with many clients achieving smooth, hair-free skin that lasts.
At Smooth Kitty, we utilize the cutting-edge Soprano Titanium ICE by Alma Lasers, a system designed to offer the safest and most effective hair removal for all skin tones. This machine uses three different wavelengths to precisely target hair in the follicle:
- 755nm (Alexandrite): Ideal for light skin tones.
- 810nm (Diode): Suitable for light-to-medium brown skin tones.
- 1064nm (ND:YAG): Safe for all skin tones, including darker skin.
By combining these wavelengths, we deliver customized treatments that minimize risks while optimizing results.
Long-Term Effects of Boyzillian Wax
1. Frequent Maintenance
Waxing removes hair from the root, but it doesn’t affect the hair follicle. This means hair will regrow within weeks, requiring regular waxing appointments to maintain smoothness. Over time, this frequent upkeep becomes costly and time-consuming.
2. Skin Damage
Repeated waxing can cause skin sensitivity, especially in delicate areas like the Boyzillian region. Common issues include redness, swelling, and even skin tears. Long-term, waxing may lead to:
- Hyperpigmentation (darkened patches of skin).
- Reduced skin elasticity from the repeated pulling motion.
3. Ingrown Hairs
One of the most frustrating side effects of waxing is ingrown hairs. When hair regrows, it can curl back into the skin, causing bumps, irritation, and even infection. For many, managing ingrown hairs requires additional exfoliation and treatments, adding to the hassle.
4. Pain and Discomfort
Waxing is inherently painful, especially in sensitive areas. Over time, the anticipation of pain can make the experience even less desirable.
5. Limited Skin Type Suitability
Individuals with sensitive skin may find waxing too harsh, leading to persistent irritation or allergic reactions to the wax itself.
Long-Term Effects of Laser Hair Removal
1. Permanent Hair Reduction
Laser hair removal targets hair follicles, significantly reducing regrowth over time. Many individuals experience up to 90% permanent hair reduction after completing their treatment plan.
2. Smoother Skin with Fewer Issues
By eliminating hair at the root, laser hair removal prevents ingrown hairs and reduces skin irritation. The result? Smooth, clear skin without the bumps or redness often associated with waxing.
3. Cost-Effective Over Time
While the initial cost of laser hair removal is higher than waxing, it’s a one-time investment that saves money in the long run. No more monthly waxing appointments or products to treat post-wax irritation.
4. Minimal Pain and Downtime
At Smooth Kitty, our Soprano Titanium ICE system ensures a virtually pain-free experience by cooling the skin during treatment. Unlike waxing, which can cause discomfort and lingering soreness, laser hair removal is gentle and quick.
5. Customizable for All Skin Types
Laser hair removal at Smooth Kitty is tailored to suit all skin tones, thanks to our triple-wavelength technology. Whether you have light, medium, or dark skin, our treatments are safe and effective.

Why Laser Hair Removal is Better for Boyzillian Areas
1. Fewer Appointments, Longer-Lasting Results
Laser hair removal offers permanent hair reduction after a series of sessions, eliminating the need for monthly maintenance. This makes it an excellent long-term solution for men who value convenience.
2. Improved Comfort
The Soprano Titanium ICE system ensures a virtually painless experience by cooling the skin during treatment. Unlike the sharp pain of waxing, laser treatments feel like a mild warmth or tingling.
3. Say Goodbye to Ingrown Hairs
Laser hair removal destroys hair at the follicle, preventing uneven regrowth and ingrown hairs. This is especially important in the Boyzillian area, where ingrown hairs can be particularly uncomfortable.
4. Tailored to Your Skin Type
Our laser technology allows us to customize treatments for all skin tones and hair types, ensuring the best results with minimal risk of irritation.
The Hidden Costs of Waxing
While waxing may seem more affordable upfront, the costs quickly add up. Consider this:
- Waxing appointments can cost anywhere from RM80 to RM200 per session.
- With monthly appointments, you could be spending over RM2,000 annually.
In contrast, laser hair removal may have a higher initial cost, but it pays off in the long term by eliminating the need for continuous upkeep.
