Parafiinihoolitsused

Parafiinihoolitsused refer to cosmetic treatments that involve the application of warm paraffin wax to the skin, primarily on the hands and feet. The process typically begins with cleansing the area to be treated. Then, the hands or feet are dipped multiple times into a vat of melted paraffin wax, creating a thick coating. As the wax cools and solidifies, it forms a protective layer.

The primary benefits of parafiinihoolitsused are related to skin hydration and softening. The warm wax opens up the pores, allowing moisturizers to penetrate more deeply. The layer of wax also traps heat, which can help to improve blood circulation in the treated area. This can lead to a soothing and relaxing sensation, and it is often found to be beneficial for dry, cracked, or rough skin.

Following the application, the hardened paraffin wax is typically removed, often after 10-20 minutes. After the wax is peeled off, the skin is left feeling noticeably softer, smoother, and more supple. Parafiinihoolitsused are a popular spa treatment, often offered as an add-on to manicures and pedicures, and are valued for their moisturizing and therapeutic effects. The wax used is a specialized cosmetic grade, distinct from industrial paraffin.
