Cutera® CoolGlide® Laser Hair Removal
The Cutera® CoolGlide is the best laser hair removal system on the market for all skin types and tones, from light to dark, including tanned patients.
The CoolGlide can remove hair from all body parts including the face, legs, arms, underarms, and back. It can also address more sensitive areas like the chest, nipples and bikini line. The treatment offers permanent hair reduction for lasting results and differs from the invasive and painful process experienced by Electrolysis (needle insertion to individual hair follicles). The CoolGlide hand piece cools and soothes as it glides along your skin, using light energy to treat hundreds of hair follicles at a time.
The number of treatments for optimal long-term benefits depends on multiple factors – hair thickness, the area treated and your hair’s growth cycle. No local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required. Most areas require 5-8 treatments. Patients may experience redness and swelling of the skin, similar to sunburn. These effects last for several hours or less. Three to seven days after treatment you may experience what seems to be regrowth of hair, but most often, these hairs are being shed as a result of your treatment.
Based on the area, we recommend treatments in 6 to 12 week intervals.
