Hi. Couple of days after my 2nd waxing I had itching sensation on my body..mainly chest area..it turned red and now have small pimples or acne. Bit reddish in color..its a bit itchy when I touch them..how to get rid of them? and will I have any marks left after the cure if there are any?I didnt encounter this after my 1st waxing.I wax because I do body building.

It is a very common problem and yes is curable. you can apply lacto calamine in the night for 2 weeks and can take any anti allergic once a day for 1 week.. it should subside by then.
