Menstruation and Laser Hair Removal – Is the Treatment Possible?

An important question for every woman!
Many women wonder: Is it safe to have laser hair removal during menstruation? Let’s find out together.

Can you get laser hair removal during your period?

Yes, it’s possible! Menstruation is not an absolute contraindication for laser hair removal. However, there are some important factors to consider.

What should you know?

🔴 Increased sensitivity – During menstruation, your pain threshold decreases, so the treatment may feel more uncomfortable than usual.
🔴 Hormonal changes – Hormonal fluctuations can affect your skin, making it more sensitive and prone to irritation.
🔴 Bikini area – a special case – Most experts recommend postponing bikini-area treatments for hygiene and comfort reasons.

Our recommendations:

✅ Other areas (legs, arms, underarms) can be treated without any problems.
✅ Consult a specialist – an expert can help you decide what’s best for you.
✅ Listen to your body – if you feel discomfort, it’s better to reschedule.

When is the best time for treatment?

The ideal time for laser hair removal is 3–5 days after your period ends. During this phase, your skin is less sensitive, and the treatment feels much more comfortable.
