It's a common misconception that laser hair removal on the pubic area is painful. In reality, it may not be comfortable, but it's not painful. The pubic area is more sensitive than other areas of the body, so Brazilian Laser Hair Removal may be a bit more uncomfortable than other areas. After the session, you may feel a slight burning sensation similar to a mild sunburn.
To reduce discomfort, you can take a pain reliever (except ibuprofen), avoid caffeine, and apply a cold compress to the area. Having laser hair removal done in the Brazilian area should not hurt more than in any other area of the body. Treatment in this area should be done slowly and regular breaks should be taken to cover areas of heavy growth in the bikini area. A Brazilian model is an elongated version of a bikini line.
All the hair on the sides, lips and butt is removed and a small piece of hair remains on the front of the bikini. Laser hair removal on the face is a non-invasive procedure that can be performed on anyone with unwanted facial hair. Throughout the session, it's important that you feel comfortable. If you feel too hot from the laser, it's important to tell your therapist so that the laser can be adjusted to your needs. Like Laser Hair Removal, electrolysis is a medical-grade treatment that produces more permanent results.
Laser hair removal tends to be more painful around the thin skin of the upper lip, while pain around the cheeks and forehead tends to be mild. Electrolysis can cause scarring, keloid scars, and skin discoloration in the treated area, while laser hair removal can cause changes in skin color, burns, scars, and acne-like breakouts. According to Dr. Nivedita Dadu, dermatologist, founder and president of Dr. Nivedita Dadu's Dermatology Clinic, laser hair removal works because light from the laser beam can be converted to heat.
Laser treatments for the back can hurt just as much as the bikini line or the armpits due to the large amount of hair in this area. The sensation of the laser decreases after each session, as hair growth becomes thinner and lighter after each treatment. So basically Laser Hair Removal is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures to remove unwanted hair from the body. You'll notice that the treated hair becomes lighter and thinner, and before long, your level of discomfort decreases as your pubic hair thins.
