Tired of repeat waxing?
Women's Brazilian
Coarse hair on thin skin shapes how this laser care is planned. Start by sorting out whether it is the line only or all of it.
Book a consultationThe range is what differs. A bikini line reaches as far as what sits outside your underwear; Brazilian takes in the genital area and everything around it. You can begin narrow and widen later, or set the full range from the first session. One device holds the 1064nm Nd:YAG and the 755nm alexandrite together. Once hair thickness and skin condition have been looked at, the wavelength and the energy are decided at your visit.
A device that picks between two wavelengths
By Candela's materials the specifications are two wavelengths, 755nm and 1064nm, plus the DCD surface cooling unit. Hair thickness, hair depth and skin tone are weighed together in the choice.

A laser does not pull hair out
Instead of gripping and pulling the hair, it delivers heat to the follicle, so right after waxing or plucking there is no follicle left for the laser to reach. That is why preparing for treatment is different.
Prepare your questions
It is fine if you cannot settle the range. Tell us what worries you first.
The range you want
Think about the line only, or all of it. We adjust it together in the consultation.
How you have removed hair so far
Shaving, waxing, plucking or a hair removal cream.
Blisters, marks, ingrown hairs
If you had blisters, darkened spots or ingrown hairs after a previous treatment, please tell us.
Pregnancy or breastfeeding
If this applies to you or you are planning to, please tell us before booking.
Your period
If you tell us the dates you expect, we book around them.
Medications and tanning

Before your consultation
How do the bikini line and Brazilian differ?
Both are laser hair removal, with light taken up by pigment in the hair passing heat to the root. Only the area covered differs, so whether to stop at the line that shows or take the whole genital area and its surroundings is agreed when we talk.
Does one session finish it? How is the interval set?
One round does not finish it. We read how much hair remains and how the skin answered, reset the output and the gap, and the number of rounds differs by person.
Does it hurt a lot?
This is not the pain of hair being torn out; it is a quick sting and a flush of heat. Thin skin with stubborn hair can make it register more, so cooling strength and energy are matched to your skin and tweaked as the session runs.
Is there anything to be careful about before and after?
Please avoid waxing and plucking before treatment. Tell us in advance about pregnancy or breastfeeding and about tanning, and afterwards, until the redness settles, cut down on saunas, hard exercise and tight clothes that cause rubbing. As the area is naturally darker, color change can occur rarely.
