TLDR Laser pubic hair removal boosts self-esteem, body image, and sexual functions in women.

The study evaluated the impact of total laser pubic hair removal (TLPHR) on self-esteem, body image, and sexual functions in 45 sexually active women aged 20 to 50. Results showed significant improvements in self-esteem, body image, and sexual functions, including desire, arousal, lubrication, and satisfaction, after the TLPHR procedure. The study concluded that TLPHR positively affected these aspects, suggesting the need for further research with larger samples to explore its effects on individual, relational, and psychosocial issues in both genders.
