Following a laser bikini line hair removal protocol allows you to:
Laser bikini line hair removal aims to permanently destroy the hairs covering the bikini area and the feminine intimate area. This area is more or less extensive depending on the wishes of each patient and their level of hairiness. Laser hair removal is particularly effective on dark and thick hairs. It therefore offers excellent results in the pubic hair and the bikini triangle.
Laser hair removal of the bikini line refers to all procedures on the intimate female area: mons pubis, upper thighs, genitals and intergluteal cleft (SIF). The cosmetic dermatologist can work on the intimate area as a whole or proceed with precision, for example to obtain hair removal in the shape of a "metro ticket". The Croix d'Or laser hair removal center in Geneva offers different prices depending on the areas chosen:

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.
After a session of permanent hair removal of the intimate area, the area is sensitized. Once the unwanted hairs have been destroyed, it is not uncommon for the skin to be reddened and slightly swollen. This common side effect of bikini laser hair removal calms down within a few hours or the day after the procedure. Other side effects may occur if the laser setting is too strong, if an allergy occurs or if the precautionary instructions have not been followed by the patient:
The contraindications to facial hair removal laser are those of any medical laser:
It is essential to protect the treated areas before and after each laser hair removal session. Thus, in summer, it is advisable to apply sunscreen every day and to wear swimming trunks or a sarong during the month before and after the treatment. Since the skin is sensitized by the laser, it is necessary to avoid taking hot baths or showers immediately after the session. Similarly, patients must wait 2 days before going to the swimming pool or the sea in order to avoid contact with salt and chlorine, while the area heals.
