LASER HAIR REMOVAL
CoolGlide® laser systems are changing the game for both men and women looking to rid themselves of unwanted facial and body hair. The technology of these systems, which includes Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), has been cleared for permanent hair reduction and is capable of treating all skin tones safely and effectively. Unlike painful and temporary methods such as waxing, electrolysis, or shaving, CoolGlide offers permanent results for a variety of areas on the body, including sensitive ones like the chest, nipples, and bikini line.
One of the key benefits of CoolGlide IPL is its ability to work on all skin tones, from light to dark, without causing damage or discomfort. This is due to its unique design, longer wavelength, and innovative cooling system that delivers safe and effective results for everyone. CoolGlide can remove hair from any part of the body, and because the handpiece cools and soothes as it glides along the skin, most patients only experience a mild pinching or stinging sensation during treatment.
The number of treatments required for optimal results varies depending on factors like hair thickness, the area being treated, and the hair growth cycle. While most areas require 3-6 treatments, additional sessions may be necessary to disable all hair follicles in a given area as hairs enter the active growth phase at different times. After treatment, the area may appear slightly red and swollen, but patients can return to normal activities right away. Sunscreen is recommended on any treated areas exposed to the sun, and patients should avoid waxing or plucking hair between treatments.
Compared to other hair removal methods, CoolGlide IPL offers permanent hair reduction for lasting results. Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams are all temporary methods that must be repeated frequently, while electrolysis is a tedious and invasive process that requires years of treatment. CoolGlide IPL delivers light energy to hundreds of hair follicles at a time, treating an area in seconds that would take hours with electrolysis. Unlike other laser systems, the CoolGlide’s cooled handpiece increases patient comfort and minimizes adverse skin reactions.
In summary, CoolGlide IPL is the best laser hair removal system on the market for all skin tones. With its innovative technology, it offers safe, effective, and permanent results for a variety of areas on the body. For more information, visit Cutera.com.
