The bikini area is a popular area for treatment.  Your pale skin and dark hair is ideal.  An Alexandrite (755 nm) laser will work for you.  Please seek providers that have this technology.

Lasers are often from other countries and safe.  What matters if they are FDA cleared or validated to ensure safety.  I suggest only going to a well trained laser physician who is reputable. Best, Dr. Emer.

 In my opinion laser hair removal is not a problem for 14-year-old. If this is causing her significant problems especially in school seek treatment from experience practitioners.
