WHAT DO COOLGLIDE LASER TREATMENTS FEEL LIKE? |
| As the name implies, the CoolGlide
handpiece cools and soothes as it glides along
your skin. When the pulse of light is delivered
, some patients experience a mild pinching
or stinging sensation. No local anesthesia
or pain medication is typically required,
however some patients may prefer to use a
topical anesthetic when sensitive areas are
treated. |
|
| |
|
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED ? |
| The number of CoolGlide
treatments required for optimal long-term
benefits depends on multiple factors such
as your hair’s thickness, the area treated,
and your hair’s growth cycle. Interestingly
, not all hairs are actively growing at the
same time, but actually go through three distinct
phases : growth, regression and resting. Coolglide
treatments work by disabling the hair that
is principally in the active growth phase
at the time of treatment. Since other hairs
will enter this active growth phase at different
times, additional treatments may be necessary
to disable all of the hair follicles in a
given area. |
|
| |
|
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE TREATMENT ? |
| Immediately following the treatment,
the area may appear a bit red or sometimes
swollen. Three to seven days after treatment
you may experience what seems to be regrowth
of hair. Actually , most of these hairs are
being shed as a result of your treatment,
and are not regrowing. Between treatments
patients should not wax or pluck hair, but
it is permissible to shave or trim with a
scissor. |
|
| |
|
ARE THERE ANY RESTRICTIONS ON MY ACTIVITY AFTER
TREATMENT ? |
| Following the treatment, you
can return to your normal activities right
away. However, since some redness may occur,
you may want to plan your work or social engagements
accordingly. The use of sunscreen is recommended
on any treated areas exposed to the sun. Your
skin care consultant may recommend that you
use a specially formulated skin care product. |
|
| |
|
WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS ? |
| Although patients experience
few side effects, the most commonly noticed
are slight reddening and local swelling of
the skin, similar to a sunburn. These effects
typically last for several hours or less.
In rare instances, blistering may occur. Consult
with your medical professional for complete
information on the benefits and risks of treatment. |

HOW DO COOLGLIDE LASERS COMPARE WITH ELECTROLYSIS
? |
| Electrolysis is a tedious,
invasive and painful process that involves
inserting a needle into each individual hair
follicle and delivering an electrical charge
to them one at a time. Electrolysis often
requires years of treatments at regular intervals.
By delivering light energy to hundreds of
hair follicles at a time, Coolglide laser
effectively treats an area in just seconds
that would take over an hour with electrolysis. |

WHY CHOOSE COOLGLIDE LASERS OVER OTHER LASER HAIR
REMOVAL SYSTEMS ? |
| Using the latest technology
in laser hair removal, CoolGlide Laser Systems
can rapidly treat large areas without the
limitations of older technologies. The CoolGlide
system’s longer wavelength allows it
to be used safely and effectively on patients
with light or dark skin as well as tanned
skin. Unlike other systems CoolGlide can treat
the fine hair on a woman's upper lip just
as easily and effectively as the coarse hair
on a man’s back. The cooled hand piece
increases patient comfort and minimizes the
adverse skin reaction commonly seen with other
lasers. |
