Intimate Laser Hair Removal

Intimate laser hair removal is a hair removal procedure intended to minimize hair growth and to get rid of it in a sustainable manner. A light beam is projected on the skin for this purpose. Attracted by melanin, the energy of the beam is converted into heat that eliminates the root of the hair.

Intimate laser hair removal covers, in women:

• Areola of the breasts
• Between the two breasts, at the sternum level.
• The classic bikini line, notched or full

In men, intimate laser hair removal involves:

• Hair removal from the pubis
• Complete removal of the hair on the penis
• The removal of the hair on the scrotum

Finally, inter-gluteal groove hair removal is a fairly common procedure in both men and women.

For intimate places, and if patients wish, a male or female doctor may be preferred to preserve their privacy and be reassured.

Intimate areas are no more sensitive than other areas of the body from the moment the laser is well adjusted. It takes between 5 and 8 sessions of around 15 to 30 minutes to get the best result. First consultation is often required before any hair removal session. It helps the doctor to know your background as well as your expectations about the treatment. He will assess the hair and skin and decides the intensity of the laser during the first visit.

The doctor will check the skin on the day of the appointment for any medical conditions that could interrupt the operation. The wearing of protective glasses is compulsory for both the doctor and you. After setting up the device, the practitioner scans the region using a handpiece that emits light pulses.

Following the treatment, the professional applies a moisturizing and soothing cream to the shaved area. This helps reduce the discomfort, but also decreases the redness that may appear.

As the sessions progress, the growth is slower and the hair is thinner and thinner.

It should be noted that about 90 percent of the hair does not grow back after treatment. That's why annual maintenance sessions are planned to eliminate small regrowth.

The price varies depending on the area and the amount of time required for the service.
