Can laser hair removal be performed on the entire bikini area?
Yes. With the latest laser technologies, permanent hair removal can be performed on the entire pubic area, including the penis, scrotum and testicles.
Since these areas are particularly sensitive, it is important that the treatment is carried out by an experienced professional who will be able to adjust the laser settings precisely to minimize the risk of burns or discoloration.
Also note that since the skin of the scrotum is generally darker, it is not recommended to use any type of laser technology on this area, as the risk of burns is high. The good news is that with our 3 in 1 hybrid diode laser which works on all skin types, including dark to black skin , we can treat the entire pubic area safely.
Is intimate laser hair removal for men effective?
Laser hair removal is particularly effective on the genitals. However, the scrotal area is not always easy to treat because the skin there is wrinkled, making it somewhat more difficult for the therapist. In addition, the hair in the scrotum is finer and sparser than elsewhere, which can slow down the effectiveness of the laser.
Therapists should explain to affected individuals that the combination of these two factors may reduce scrotal outcomes.
Is laser hair removal safe for genitals? – Fertility and erectile function
Some men fear the risks that laser hair removal can have on the intimate part, in particular problems of fertility Or erectile dysfunction .
Professionals claim that laser beams cannot reach and directly affect internal structures in the pubic area such as blood vessels or nerves responsible for erection.
As for its effect on fertility, there is no solid scientific evidence that laser has an influence or not on fertility. So far, no cases of infertility have been reported by users who have had laser hair removal.
However, before proceeding with treatment, it is advisable to discuss with a healthcare professional any side effects that could indirectly affect your comfort or well-being.
Is the treatment painful?
The pubic area is a particularly sensitive and delicate area, but the pain depends on the sensitivity of each person. Our hybrid diode laser has a sophisticated cooling system used to alleviate the pain and side effects of permanent laser hair removal.
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions required for genital laser hair removal depends on several factors such as hair type, skin type and hormonal status in men.
Generally, you need to plan between 8 and 12 sessions , spaced 5-6 weeks apart to destroy all hair follicles. As for the duration of the session, it can range from 15 to 30 minutes to treat the entire area.
Therapists often advise users to schedule one or two touch-up sessions per year to maintain the effects of the laser and to prevent any new regrowth after treatment.
What are the side effects of permanent bikini line hair removal?
Side effects of laser hair removal for men include only some temporary redness and itching that lasts for 24 to 48 hours after treatment. After 2 to 3 weeks, the hair will begin to shed and fall out.
