Laser hair removal of the bikini area

The bikini area is highly sensitive, so skin care in this area should be as delicate as possible. Using a razor and depilatory creams causes irritation, which manifests itself in redness, itching, inflammation, leading to acne. In addition, after using a razor, hair often begins to grow under the skin. Laser hair removal of the bikini area is a modern method that helps get rid of hair without pain. The procedure provides a long-lasting effect of smooth skin and does not cause irritation.

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser bikini hair removal removes hair by specifically targeting melanin, the pigment that makes hair dark. This method works best on dark hair, as it contains a lot of melanin, which easily absorbs laser light. Light or gray hair has less melanin, so the laser is less effective on it.

During the procedure, the laser emits light that destroys the hair roots. After completing a full course of laser hair removal, hair in intimate areas does not grow back for up to five years.

Benefits of Laser Bikini Hair Removal

The advantages of bikini laser hair removal include:

  • Long-lasting smoothness of the skin. One session can stop hair growth for a long time. It is important to perform maintenance procedures once a year or year and a half
  • Can be performed on all types of hair and skin. The laser works great in sensitive areas and does not cause allergic reactions
  • Minimal pain. Advanced devices are equipped with cooling systems that make the session almost painless

Epilation helps to avoid inflammation and ingrown hairs. In addition, the laser stimulates collagen renewal in the skin, making it elastic and smooth for a long time.

Course of procedures for laser hair removal of bikini

Hormonal changes affect hair growth in the intimate area. It becomes thick and dense in women under 25, which requires more hair removal sessions. After 25, when the hormonal balance stabilizes, hair grows less often, and the need for sessions decreases. The exact number of sessions for laser hair removal of a deep (total) bikini depends on the individual characteristics of the body.

The laser hair removal procedure in the bikini area lasts from 30 to 60 minutes. Cosmetologists recommend from 4 to 10 sessions. In the presence of infections, allergic reactions or side effects, the number of sessions is adjusted.

After the first procedure, the laser removes about 70% of the hair in the active growth phase, leaving some hairs in a dormant state. They fall out within 7-10 days, so there is no need to immediately repeat the treatment.

Types of intimate area hair removal

The technology is applicable to any area of ​​the body, including classic and full bikini.

Classic bikini

Involves laser hair removal exclusively along the underwear line. The hair removal specialist creates a neat appearance of the intimate area, leaving the skin near the genitals untouched. Thanks to traditional laser hair removal, women gain self-confidence on the beach, in the pool, in the sauna.

Deep (total) bikini

Deep (total) bikini laser hair removal involves hair removal in the intimate area, including the pubis, outer labia in women and the scrotum in men, as well as the inner thighs. Smooth skin improves hygiene, aesthetics and increases self-confidence.

General information about the procedure

Preparing for laser hair removal

The effectiveness of laser hair removal depends on careful preparation. It includes the following steps:

  1. Stop waxing or using sugar paste six weeks before the session
  2. Avoid sunbathing a month before the procedure, as it reduces the effectiveness of the laser and increases the risk of burns
  3. Two weeks before the session, reduce physical activity, avoid visiting the sauna and swimming pool to prevent inflammation
  4. Take a shower on the day of the procedure. The skin should be clean, without any cosmetics
  5. Avoid caffeine two to three hours before the session to reduce skin sensitivity and reduce possible discomfort during the procedure

Adjust the length of the hair in the intimate area with a razor a day before epilation. If you have herpes, take an antiviral drug.

Procedure stages

During the consultation, the cosmetologist examines the patient's bikini area and clarifies about possible contraindications. Then the following steps are performed:

  1. Preparation. Applying a local anesthetic cream to the skin to reduce discomfort
  2. Positioning. The patient lies down on the couch, puts on protective eye glasses
  3. Skin treatment. The cosmetologist sets up the device and begins the procedure
  4. Completion of the bikini epilation session. The doctor applies a cream with an anti-inflammatory effect to relieve irritation

Most patients are worried about pain and possible burns. When the session is carried out by an experienced cosmetologist, using a modern diode device and anesthetic cream, the risk of burns and discomfort is minimized.

Care after the bikini epilation procedure

After the first hair removal session, it is important to follow the skin care recommendations:

  1. Avoid hot baths and showers for the first 24 hours. If you need to refresh yourself, take a cool shower without using soap or gels. It is important to limit any heat exposure until the irritation subsides
  2. Abstain from visiting a solarium and tanning in direct sunlight for two weeks
  3. Use a razor to remove hair between sessions. Other methods injure the hair roots, lead to ingrown hairs and inflammation
  4. Abstain from scrubbing and any kind of massage for a week to avoid additional skin irritation
  5. After 10 days, gently wipe the skin with a washcloth to remove dead hairs, avoiding plucking ingrown hairs with tweezers

Use moisturizing and healing creams to speed up skin regeneration after the session. It is prohibited to apply products containing alcohol and other aggressive components.

Indications and contraindications for laser hair removal of the intimate area

The main condition for laser hair removal of the intimate area is excessive hair growth. If alternative methods of removal have proven ineffective, are not suitable due to allergic reactions or high sensitivity to pain, epilation sessions are recommended. The technology effectively removes coarse and ingrown hairs that have arisen as a result of sugaring or regular shaving.

The method of laser hair removal of legs and bikini has a number of limitations:

  • High blood pressure
  • Epilepsy
  • Scleroderma (a disease associated with thickening and hardening of the skin)
  • Oncological diseases
  • Diabetes, thyroid dysfunction and other diseases of the endocrine system
  • Acute respiratory infections
  • Conditions that weaken the immune system (HIV)
  • Skin damage in the area of the upcoming treatment
  • Dermatitis, eczema
  • The presence of metal implants in the body

Laser hair removal is not performed on pregnant and lactating women, persons under 18 years of age due to hormonal changes during this period. During menstruation, sensitivity increases, so bikini waxing causes more discomfort.

Answers to popular questions

Cosmetologists of "K+31" answered frequently asked questions about laser hair removal.

What is the difference between depilation and epilation?

Depilation and epilation are different ways to get rid of unwanted hair, each of which has its own characteristics:

Parameter Depilation Epilation
Removal technique Removes the visible part of the hair above the skin Removes the hair completely with the root
Tools Razor blade, creams Laser, electrical devices, wax
Result duration Up to one week From 2 to 4 weeks, with the possibility of long-term growth reduction
Pain level Usually painless No discomfort

Is laser hair removal painful?

Laser hair removal feels similar to light pinching or burning sensations. Modern equipment is equipped with cooling systems that reduce discomfort during the procedure.

At what age can you start laser hair removal?

It is recommended to start laser hair removal for intimate areas after the age of 18 when hormonal balance becomes more stable. With parental consent and after consulting a dermatologist, this technology is available to teenagers.

What hair length is needed for laser hair removal, and should they be removed in advance?

For bikini hair removal, the hair should be 1-2 mm long. It is recommended to shave them a day before the procedure so that the laser can most effectively target the hair roots.

Which type of laser hair removal is better?

The choice of laser for bikini hair removal depends on the skin and hair color. Alexandrite lasers work well on light skin with dark hair, while Nd:YAG lasers are suitable for darker skin.

Are side effects possible?

Yes, side effects may include redness, swelling, and rarely, temporary changes in skin pigmentation. These typically resolve on their own within 2-3 days. Avoiding sun exposure on treated areas is recommended until full skin recovery.

How often can the hair removal procedure be repeated?

Doctor's quote: "The interval between bikini sessions depends on the hair growth rate in the treated area, hormonal background, and age. It is recommended to perform the procedure every 4-6 weeks for the face and every 8-12 weeks for the body to effectively suppress hair growth in the active growth phase."
