Men and women alike seek to keep their genital area hair-free, making Brazilian or bikini laser hair removal an increasingly popular solution.
However, this treatment can have side effects. To reduce these adverse reactions and maximize results, be sure to follow all instructions from your technician prior to scheduling an appointment.
The balls
Many men can feel more secure and assured when their body hair has been reduced, including around their genital area. But it is important to keep in mind that going completely hairless down there may prompt new hair growth to compensate; Brazilian laser hair removal offers an effective solution by decreasing unwanted growth while helping prevent ingrown hairs.
Prepping the area before your Brazilian laser treatment appointment is key to ensure its safety and efficacy, such as shaving the area prior to undergoing your session and wearing loose, breathable clothing – this allows your skin to breath while preventing friction that could potentially lead to discoloration or skin irritation. In addition, tanning beds should be avoided before starting laser treatments for optimal results.
Brazilian treatments cover an expansive area of your pubic region and may take multiple sessions to reach your desired look. While some individuals may be eligible for partial Brazilians (known as “squat” treatments) instead of full Brazilians, most require full Brazilian treatment sessions for optimal results. To find out which option would work best for you, consult a trained laser technician.
Laser treatments use light energy to target and destroy hair follicles, leading to significantly thinner and lighter-colored growth of new hair that returns after each laser treatment. Combining laser treatments with other hair removal methods like waxing or shaving may further decrease thickness in this area of treatment.
If you’re worried about the pain associated with Brazilian laser hair removal, keep in mind that most people have an average pain threshold and the procedure shouldn’t be as arduous as you expect. Furthermore, its effects are long-lasting but hormonal fluctuations may trigger regrowth; touch-up sessions may be required in certain areas to maintain results.
Professional laser technicians won’t make you feel ashamed about your body or area being treated, and should you ever experience discomfort during a Brazilian laser session, ask to speak with management or another member of staff immediately.
The shaft
Shaving or waxing alone may not always be effective at eliminating pubic hairs, leading to ingrown or bumpy hairs in some parts of the area. But with laser hair removal technology now available, smooth skin without the risk of bumps is possible without shaving or waxing!
laser treatment goes deeper than shaving or waxing by targeting the roots of each hair follicle to stop producing new hair, providing results that may last longer than shaving or waxing alone. Regrowth however cannot always be avoided as hormonal fluctuations may trigger new follicle growth again.
Before going in for laser hair removal, it’s crucial to prepare the treatment area. On either the day before or morning of your appointment, carefully shave any areas you would like treated using a clean razor shaver and avoid plucking or waxing them as this may impact how effective treatment will be.
Your laser technician will use cooling methods before beginning. Next, light energy from the laser targets and damages hair follicles permanently preventing future hair growth in that location. There may be slight sensation in the area but it will not be uncomfortable.
Once the treatment is over, it’s normal for there to be some redness and swelling in the area for several days post-procedure. In order to keep this from worsening further, try keeping it out of direct sunlight, not using any sunless tanning products, and forgoing any spray tans or getting any kind of spray tan treatment for at least 48 hours before getting any kind of exfoliation treatment or using razors/pluckers etc. Be sure to exfoliate 48 hours beforehand, in order to remove dead skin cells caused by shaving/plucking etc.
At Ideal Image, it only takes approximately one week for swelling and redness to subside and the results of your Brazilian laser hair removal treatment to become visible.

The ass
Hairy bums or buttocks are a problem for both men and women alike, often becoming noticeable with age. Laser treatment of this area, known as perianal region hair growth can be done separately; however, more commonly included as part of Brazilian or bikini packages.
Laser hair removal treatments can remove all unwanted growth in this area and leave you with a beautiful smooth bum and perineum.
Most people opt for the full Brazilian, which entails all hair removal from the pubic mound to the belly button. If your locks are longer than average you could also consider getting the Brazilian Plus treatment which removes all hair above your pubic mound as well.
Before your laser hair removal session, it is recommended to refrain from shaving the treatment area for six weeks prior to beginning treatment. This will make laser hair removal more efficient as shaved hairs remain just below the skin surface where laser light can more easily target them. Furthermore, it is wise to refrain from plucking or waxing before your session as this makes it hard for your practitioner to locate hair follicles and destroy them using laser light.
Before your appointment, be sure to maintain good body hygiene. This will make the work of your practitioner easier while also making you more comfortable during treatment.
The rubber bands
As well as being more aesthetically pleasing, having very little or no body hair down there can also make life more comfortable. That is why more men are turning to Brazilian laser hair removal for permanent results that won’t require waxing or shaving in the future. It is an effective and long-term solution.
However, laser hair removal can be discomforting or painful for some individuals due to sensitive hair follicles in this area. To alleviate any possible discomfort during treatment, local anesthetic can be applied prior to commencing and make for a much more pleasant experience and help ensure you achieve the results that you’re after with your Brazilian laser hair removal treatment.
An additional way to reduce discomfort is shaving the area before your appointment. Be careful and gentle when shaving around your pubic area. Also, store aloe vera gel in the fridge so it can be applied after shaving to soothe skin irritations and accelerate hair shedding after treatments.
Keep the plucking or waxing to a minimum if possible as this will make laser treatment harder to target the follicles, potentially resulting in ingrown hairs or irritation. Wax or pluck only once before each laser treatment session then wait three-four weeks before making another visit to get more treatments done.
Men may feel they only option for getting rid of pubic hair is waxing or shaving, which can be time consuming and cause painful ingrown hairs. As laser hair removal offers quick and pain-free results that can be completed easily within their home or office setting, these procedures may offer the solution needed.
Laser hair removal has many advantages for convenience, cost-efficiency and long-term benefits; no wonder it’s one of our most sought-after treatments! If you want to say goodbye to shaving permanently, contact the SEV Laser location nearest you for an appointment – don’t wait!
