Thus, laser hair removal on the bikini line is not unusual, and many women are now using this technique to remove well-developed hair. Nowadays, it is even possible to have several kinds of hair growth in the bikini zone:

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

It normally takes between 8 and 10 sessions. Each session should be scheduled around 6 to 8 weeks apart, depending on the regrowth of the hair.

Each session will take about 20 to 30 minutes. yIt all depends on the extent of the region to be treated and on your hairiness.
