Laser hair removal in the bikini zone with the alexandrite laser

6-10 sessions are recommended

10-20 minutes

The area must be shaved 24 hours before your appointment. No makeup/lotion/deodorant on the day of your appointment (in the treatment area). Stay out of direct sunlight for at least 3 days before your appointment (& 3 days after). Do not use self-tanning or spray tan products for at least 2 weeks prior to your treatment to avoid possible injury. Avoid drinking more than 2 alcoholic beverages 24 hours before your treatment. Avoid growing or plucking in the area for at least 4 weeks. Shaving is okay!

Immediately after your bikini area laser hair removal treatment, you may feel a slight burning sensation similar to a mild sunburn. Our experts will ask you if you would like aloe vera to soothe the immediate redness or swelling. To relieve the discomfort, you can take a pain reliever (other than ibuprofen), avoid caffeine, and apply a cool compress to the area.

With each treatment, the laser settings are increased so that the pubic hair can be eliminated. You will notice the treated hair becoming lighter and thinner, and in no time the discomfort will subside as the pubic hair becomes thinner. You should also shave the pubic area within 24-48 hours after laser hair removal and avoid direct sunlight for at least 2 weeks after the treatment (and before the next treatment). If you have any questions or concerns, our ERA Esthetic Team is here to help.

Permanent hair removal with the alexandrite laser cannot be accelerated because biological processes such as the growth phases of the individual hairs are genetically pre-programmed. Everyone has three different stages of hair growth. The anagen phase is the active growth phase. This is the only stage where laser hair removal is effective. Only 20% of hair is actively growing during an anagen growth phase, which is why multiple laser hair removal treatments are required to effectively achieve long-term results. The phase can last 3-4 months on the body.

We use the GentleLASE laser, currently the best laser device on the market, which has a special cooling system for the skin that makes the treatment much more comfortable than other laser devices. Your time is also important to us. Our individual laser hair removal sessions are very quick due to the industry's largest "spot size". This means patients are exposed to fewer laser pulses for the same treatment area - maximizing comfort and minimizing time. Many customers who have previously worked with electrolysis or lasers with smaller spot sizes immediately switch to our laser treatment system once they understand its benefits. The laser is an FDA-approved procedure that is comfortable and effective for the entire body thanks to Candela's special cooling system.
