Question 1

What bikini styles can I choose?

Accepted Answer

Choose your ideal bikini laser treatment, from Basic Bikini (just outside the underwear), to Brazilian (front and behind), up to a fully bare Hollywood style. We tailor the treatment to your preferences.

Question 2

How many bikini sessions are needed and how long do they take?

Accepted Answer

Most clients see optimal results in 6-10 sessions, with each session lasting approximately 15 minutes. Treatments are spaced every 6-8 weeks, allowing hair follicles to enter the correct growth phase.

Question 3

Is bikini laser hair removal pain-free?

Accepted Answer

We use medical-grade Cynosure Elite iQ lasers combined with cooling technology to minimise discomfort. Most clients describe it as a mild snapping sensation, much more comfortable than waxing with long-lasting results.

Question 4

Is laser hair removal for the bikini area permanent?

Accepted Answer

Laser delivers permanent hair reduction, meaning most clients experience up to 80-90% reduction. Any remaining hairs tend to be finer and easier to manage or maintain with occasional top-ups.

Question 5

What should I do before my bikini laser hair removal appointment?

Accepted Answer

Shave the bikini area 24 hours before your session to keep hair visible at the follicle during treatment. Avoid waxing, plucking or tanning for at least 2 weeks before treatment.Stay out of the sun, and refrain from using photosensitising creams (like retinol or AHA/BHA) for at least three days prior.Clean the area, remove all perfumes, lotions, or tan and showering before your appointment is recommended.

Question 6

Can I get laser hair removal during my period?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can still have bikini laser hair removal during your period. We simply ask that you wear a clean tampon or menstrual cup during your appointment. If you’re uncomfortable, you’re welcome to reschedule with at least 48 hours’ notice.

Question 7

What’s the difference between Bikini, Brazilian, and Hollywood laser hair removal?

Accepted Answer

Bikini removes hair just outside the panty line.Brazilian removes most hair from the front and undercarriage, leaving a strip or triangle if desired.Hollywood removes all hair from the front, labia, and perianal area - completely bare.Your therapist will help you choose the style you’re most comfortable with.

Question 8

How should I prepare my bikini area before the appointment?

Accepted Answer

Shave the entire area 24 hours beforehand (don’t wax, tweeze, or epilate).Avoid fake tan, moisturisers, or active skincare products on the area.Wear clean, breathable underwear and arrive freshly showered if possible.

Question 9

What does it feel like on sensitive areas like the labia or inner bikini line?

Accepted Answer

Most clients describe it as a light snap or warm tingling sensation. The Cynosure laser has a built-in cooling device to soothe the skin as we go, making treatment more comfortable even on delicate areas.

Question 10

Is laser hair removal safe for darker skin on the bikini area?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our Cynosure Elite iQ laser is safe for all skin tones, including darker Fitzpatrick types. It uses dual wavelengths to target the hair follicle while protecting the surrounding skin, making it effective and safe across a wide range of complexions.

Question 11

How long before I see results in the bikini area?

Accepted Answer

Most clients begin to see visible results after 2-3 sessions, with full results typically achieved after 6-10 sessions. You’ll notice hair growing back finer, slower, and patchier with each treatment.

Question 12

Can I exercise or swim after bikini laser hair removal?

Accepted Answer

Avoid intense exercise, swimming pools, hot tubs, or anything that may irritate the skin (e.g., tight leggings, hot showers, or sexual activity) for at least 24-48 hours post-treatment. This allows the skin to calm and reduces the risk of irritation or infection.

Question 13

Can I get laser hair removal if I’ve recently waxed or plucked?

Accepted Answer

No. For laser to work effectively, the hair follicle must be present. Avoid waxing, plucking, or threading for at least 4 weeks before your first session. Shaving is the only recommended hair removal method between treatments.

Question 14

Will I be completely hair-free after bikini laser treatments?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal offers permanent hair reduction, not guaranteed 100% removal. Most clients experience an 80–90% reduction, with remaining hairs becoming finer and more sparse. Occasional top-up sessions may be needed for long-term smoothness.

Question 15

Can I get a bikini laser treatment if I have ingrown hairs or razor bumps?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in fact, laser hair removal can help reduce and prevent ingrown hairs and razor burn by targeting the root of the hair and reducing regrowth. Many clients with sensitive bikini areas find long-term relief through laser treatments.
