A Brazilian laser hair removal treatment is one of the best options for removing hair from the bikini region. With reduced pain and a lesser recovery period, you can enjoy and flaunt your hairless bikini area after some time following your final treatment session.
But can you have sex after getting Brazilian laser hair removal treatment? Although it’s safe to have sex after your Brazilian laser hair removal session if you have no post-treatment side effects, it’s still best to let the bikini region rest since this area is hypersensitive. Doing so would avoid further adverse effects and skin irritation.
Can You Have Sex After Getting Brazilian Laser Hair Removal?

So yes, you can have sex after getting Brazilian laser hair removal, but make sure to be ready for the increased risk of skin irritation and side effects such as swelling and redness. It is possible to irritate the area even more if you engage in sexual intimacy when it is still irritated. This can cause swelling to increase, and make you more vulnerable to infections.
Other than that, you may also really want to wait to have sex because of the high possibility of having vaginal dryness after your treatment session. Vaginal dryness may make sex more painful for women because of the lack of sufficient lubrication, which is experienced by some people right after their laser hair removal treatment session.
Vaginal dryness resolves on its own so you may simply want to wait it out until your normal vaginal wetness is restored.
Is It Safe to Have Oral Sex After Brazilian Laser Hair Removal?
If you can’t have penetrative intercourse after your Brazilian laser hair removal, then it follows that you can’t also have oral sex for the same reasons. Your skin is already disrupted and irritated after your laser hair removal session so inflicting any form of force or pressure, or performing oral sex on the bikini region would make it much worse.
Similarly, it will also result in complications such as infections. Good thing, it takes only 24 hours after your treatment session before you can engage in any sexual activity.

It’s not just any infection though, research backs up the possible complications and risks of having sex after your skin got tiny tears or trauma from a hair removal procedure. Such complications include sexually transmitted diseases (STI) such as HPV and herpes.
When Can You Have Sex After Getting Brazilian Laser Hair Removal?
It’s best to wait for at least 24 hours or until any side effects vanish before engaging in any sexual activity. However, even after a couple of days following your laser hair removal session, you may still feel sensitive and ticklish down there so you may want to wait until the sensitivity subsides.
It’s important that you consult your doctor and only seek services from an expert team with advanced laser technology in order to achieve the best possible results. This way, you can ensure that your skin may heal faster and severe adverse effects are avoided because of the expertise and experience of the team and the efficiency of the lasers they use.
What to Expect After Brazilian Laser Hair Removal

Due to the fact that laser energy is more responsive to darker skin tones, people with such skin may experience more pain or irritation than those with lighter skin tones. This means that you may expect to wait more time until the sensitivity or visible signs of skin irritation subsides before you could have sex after your laser hair removal treatment session.
Despite this, laser hair removal still offers greater effectiveness and less pain compared to Brazilian wax and other pubic hair removal options. To know what to expect after your Brazilian laser hair removal, do take note of the following possible side effects from the hair removal treatment:
- Redness
- Scarring
- Skin crusting
- Mild swelling
- Slight redness and temporary irritation
- Changes in skin texture
- Changes in skin pigmentation
- Stimulation of hair growth
Expect full recovery from the side effects for at least 2 weeks after your session. Hair regrowth is expected but as you progress through your sessions, your pubic hair may appear thinner and its growth will be slower.
