Your period has started, and your laser hair removal appointment falls on the same days. In most cases, there’s no need to cancel or reschedule your session – menstruation itself is not a contraindication for laser hair removal, including the bikini area.
If you feel comfortable, your treatment at inglow aesthetics in Budapest can go ahead as planned. For intimate areas, we simply ask you to use a tampon or menstrual cup during the appointment.
What can change during your period is how the treatment feels. Hormonal changes throughout the menstrual cycle can affect sensitivity, and some women find their skin more sensitive in the days before or during their period. Others notice no difference at all. If you know that your body is particularly sensitive at this time, choosing another day may simply make the session more comfortable.
During the follicular phase, after your period and before ovulation, some women find laser hair removal more comfortable. Around ovulation, treatment can continue as usual, while during the luteal phase before your next period, sensitivity may increase for some people. There is no need to plan your entire laser hair removal course around these phases unless you personally notice that they make a significant difference to your comfort.
This is especially useful to know during a laser hair removal course, because keeping your appointments consistent matters. If your period arrives unexpectedly, you don’t automatically need to postpone the session and disrupt your treatment schedule.
So if you’ve been searching “Can I have bikini laser hair removal during my period?”, the simple answer is yes. Your menstrual cycle doesn’t have to determine your laser schedule – your comfort does.
At inglow aesthetics, laser hair removal treatments are performed with the Candela GentleMax Pro, with settings selected individually according to your skin, hair, and treatment area. If you’re comfortable having your session during your period, we’ll simply continue with your appointment as usual.
