How is Laser Epilation Performed on the Vagina?
Since the vaginal area is a sensitive and special area, there are some points to be considered when performing laser epilation. The application should be done by a specialist and should be performed with the right technique. Here are the steps that explain how laser epilation is performed on the vaginal area:
1. Cleaning the Application Area
✔ First, the vaginal area is thoroughly cleaned. Hygiene is very important because cleaning the area before the laser application prevents skin irritation.
✔ If there is a lot of hair in the area to be applied, the hair can be shortened or thinned out so that the light energy sent can be effective.
2. Anesthesia Application of the Application Area (Optional)
✔ The vaginal area is usually quite sensitive, so some people may feel discomfort during laser application.
✔ If the person is worried about pain, a topical anesthetic cream can be applied. The anesthetic cream numbs the area and provides a more comfortable experience.
3. Adjusting the Laser Device
✔ The laser hair removal device should be adjusted specifically for the skin type, hair type and area.
✔ In sensitive areas such as the vaginal area, the device may need to operate at a lower energy level.
✔ The light of the device is transmitted to the skin in a way that targets the hair follicles.
4. Application of Laser Light
✔ Laser light is effective by targeting the hairs on the outside of the vaginal area at their roots.
✔ Laser light only affects the hairs and does not harm the healthy tissues of the skin.
✔ During the application, the light causes the hairs to become weaker and ensures less hair growth.
5. Post-Procedure Care
✔ There may be slight redness, tenderness or swelling in the vaginal area after the application. This usually goes away within a few hours.
✔ The skin can be soothed by using cooling gels or soothing creams.
✔ Depending on the sensitivity of the skin, it is important to avoid sun exposure after the procedure.
6. Sessions and Results
✔ Laser hair removal in the vaginal area usually requires several sessions. After the first session, hair loss is observed, but 3-6 sessions may be required to achieve completely permanent results.
✔ The effect of laser hair removal increases over time, because the hair falls out slowly and the rate of new hair growth decreases.
✔ Results may vary from person to person, but permanent hair loss is usually achieved.
Important Points:
It should be done by a professional.
Laser application to the vaginal area is a safe and effective method, but it is important to use the right technique and device.
It is necessary to ensure hygiene during the application and to check whether there is any allergic reaction on the skin.
