The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) recommends using clippers for hair removal before surgery. Clippers reduce the risk of skin abrasions (which can increase infection risk) compared to razors (which can cut the skin), tweezers (impractical for large areas), and depilatories (chemicals may cause skin reactions or interfere with surgery).
