The bikini area refers to the area around the genitals that is visible outside of a bathing suit or underwear. It typically includes the area outside of the panty line, up to three inches beyond this line, and some areas that underwear covers, such as the sides of the labia and top of the pubic region. Hair removal in this area can be challenging, and methods include shaving, waxing, sugaring, and laser hair removal. The bikini line is one of the most frustrating areas for upkeep, especially during swimsuit season, and laser hair removal on the bikini line can create a smooth, flawless appearance and prevent stubble from growing back.
