Burdened with burns and bumps? Welcome to Brazilian laser hair removal.&nbsp;

We may be approaching the final days of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/shopping/summer-book-list-novels-memoirs-reading-shop" title="13 Books Worth Adding to Your Summer Book List" target="_blank" rel="noopener">summer</a>, but the fact remains that personal grooming requires maintenance year-round. Whether your loyalties lie with at-home waxing, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/how-to-make-your-shaving-routine-more-eco-friendly-sustainable" title="How to Make Your Shaving Routine More Eco-Friendly" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shaving</a>, or <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/everything-you-need-to-know-about-sugaring-vs-waxing" title="Everything You Need to Know About Sugaring, Including Why It's Superior to Waxing">sugaring</a>, the consequences of DIY hair removal in any capacity often include skin irritation, residual hair breakage, and even the concern for ingrown hair growth (ouch). However, what if we told you that there was a fourth option for safe, effective hair removal that could allow you to toss your rusted razors and at-home waxing kits for good? Welcome to Brazilian laser hair removal.&nbsp;

Regardless of the season, ladies, we can all agree that a smooth bikini line is an essential element to the art of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/fall-2021-beauty-wellness-self-care-tips-at-home" title="5 Beauty and Wellness Tips for Your Fall Self-Care Routine" target="_blank" rel="noopener">self-care</a>. However, beyond the process of upholding a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/how-to-get-smooth-bikini-line-shaving-summer" title="Here's How to Maintain a Smooth Bikini Line This Summer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">smooth bikini line</a> is the unknown territory that is Brazilian waxing. Even&nbsp;with a multistep process of waxing prep, exfoliation, moisturizing, and aftercare, your skin is at risk with both at-home wax kits and professional waxing centers for allergic reactions, irritation, and generally lackluster results. However, with Brazilian laser hair removal on the rise, you too enjoy the final weeks of summer with a newfound sense of confidence and a smooth bikini line. Only requiring a few sessions, Brazilian laser hair removal has seen rapid growth as a newly adopted method for hair removal. To help you find the hair removal method that works best for you, here is everything there is to know about Brazilian laser hair removal.&nbsp;

Brazilian laser hair removal requires multiple sessions for optimal results

Dependent on the thickness, shade, and amount of hair you are aiming to have removed, Brazilian laser hair removal requires anywhere from four to 10 sessions for the most effective results. Each person's skin will differ, but generally speaking, Brazilian laser treatment will require a minimum of four sessions spread out across a span of a few weeks, with each session lasting around 15 to 20 minutes.&nbsp;

Those with fair skin and dark hair tend to see the best results from Brazilian laser hair removal.

While Brazilian hair removal works on all skin types, the best results are often seen on clients with fair skin and dark hair as the laser is most attracted to the pigment of a darker hair follicle. The greater pigment in your hair (darker hair has more pigment), the more effective Brazilian laser hair removal will be.

Discomfort varies from person to person during treatment sessions.

Performed in a medical setting, the pain associated with Brazilian laser hair removal can be eased with the application of a topical anesthetic cream 15 to 20 minutes prior to your procedure. However, the optimal results with the least amount of pain possible are seen in patients that proactively prepare their skin prior to their sessions, as well as those who strictly follow aftercare instructions to avoid any form of scarring or irritation.

Permanent hair removal is not guaranteed with Brazilian laser hair removal.

Once hair growth begins to diminish, patients often fail to follow through with attending the total number of required sessions, as well as the aftercare procedure prescribed by their laser technician, often resulting in the resurgence of hair growth. However, if you are looking to extra-prepare your skin prior to your first Brazilian laser hair removal session, shave the day of or the day before to help your laser technician find and target the hair follicles.&nbsp;

Consult with a medical professional who specializes in laser hair removal prior to booking your first session.

To prevent any outbreak of infection or irritation, consult with a medical professional specialized in laser hair removal to develop a complete understanding of the process in full, as well as any possible risk or concerns associated with the procedure.&nbsp;
