Laser Hair Removal on the Bikini Line

A laser hair removal is a technique that can remove hair almost permanently. Several sessions are necessary and, over the course of the sessions, there is a decrease in the number of hairs, but also a slowdown in their growth.

Thus, the laser hair removal on the bikini line is not uncommon and many women now use this technique to remove well developed hair. Today, it is even possible to have several types of hair growth in the bikini zone:

• Classic bikini where only the hairs protruding from the pants are removed;
• Inner bikini line, the lips are not shaved;
• Brazilian bikini where only a small rectangle or triangle is left on the front of the pubis;
• The full bikini where no hair is left on the pubic area or lips.

In general, it takes between 8 and 10 sessions. Each session should be spaced about 6 to 8 weeks apart depending on regrowth.

Each session takes about 20 to 30 minutes. It all depends on the extent of the area to be treated and your hairiness.

Before your first session, it is imperative to carry out a first consultation with a medical specialist. During this visit, he examines your skin and your hair to detect any contraindications to the follow-up of this procedure.

The day of your first session the practitioner re-examines the area to be treated. He tries to detect any lesions or herpes pimples and checks the shaving of the area. If the area is not properly shaved, the practitioner may do it themselves.

Wearing protective glasses is mandatory during the session for both you and the practitioner. He then sets the device and performs a test that allows him to check the intensity of the laser on a small part of your body. After the test, he sweeps the area to be treated with a handpiece.

Finally, after the session, he applies a moisturizing and soothing cream to calm the burning sensation and redness.

After your hair removal sessions, almost all hair is destroyed. More than 90% of the hair will not regrow except in case of hormonal change as during menopause. In all cases, annual maintenance sessions are expected to maintain the benefits of the procedure.

In most cases, laser Hair Removal on the bikini line offers quite satisfactory results to the women who have received this procedure.

Finally, in 10 to 15% of the cases, a fine and very clear hair will remain.
