Laser hair removal of the bikini line involves removing all unwanted hair from the pubic area, vulva and/or gluteal cleft using a beam of laser energy.
This light beam targets and destroys the melanin present in brown and black hair, going up to the hair bulb.
Once its root is destroyed, the hair no longer grows back.
The laser scan is more or less extensive depending on the desired result: classic swimsuit, Brazilian swimsuit, etc. However, it is important to take into account the silhouette as a whole, beyond the intimate area, to obtain a harmonious result when the patient is in a swimsuit.
To avoid too great a contrast between the bikini line (without hair) and the upper thighs (untreated), the laserist will offer you a partial treatment of the border zone. The hairs at the junction between the permanently hair-removed areas and the unhaired parts of the body will thus be finer and less dense, which will make the demarcation much less visible.
It is also possible to combine hair removal of intimate areas with hair removal of legs and other parts of the body, in order to group the sessions.
Each permanent laser hair removal protocol is personalized according to the phototype (hair color, skin color) and the desires of each patient. Indeed, the type of laser is not the same for light skin and dark skin.
The Laser Center of the Clinique de la Croix d'Or in Geneva will receive you in complete confidentiality to answer your questions, check for any contraindications to laser treatment, perform a hair diagnosis and provide you with a quote with the number of sessions recommended for the targeted areas.
The first session of laser hair removal of the intimate area is the most painful. The passage of the laser beam over the still thick hairs causes a sensation of heat and tingling particularly marked at the level of the lips and the intergluteal cleft.
Although incomparable with the pain of traditional bikini waxing or electric epilator hair removal, this sensation remains unpleasant. It only lasts the fraction of a second during which the bikini laser sends its pulse into the hair bulb. This sensation diminishes over the course of the sessions, as the hairiness reduces. Premenstrual syndrome increases sensitivity to pain in the intimate area.
Our laser therapists will advise you to book your sessions after your period. They will be able to prescribe an anesthetic cream compatible with permanent bikini hair removal to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment.
