For Women & Men of All Skin Types and Tones
Now men and women alike are making unwanted facial and body hair a thing of the past - thanks to the
Cutera CoolGlide Laser. No more painful waxing, electrolysis or razors! The CoolGlide laser delivers 21st
century technology for treatment of this distressing problem. Cleared for permanent hair reduction, the
CoolGlide laser can treat men and women of all skin types safely and effectively, year-round. Even patients
with a suntan.
The Cutera CoolGlide Difference
The Cutera CoolGlide was designed to be the most outstanding laser hair removal system on the market for
all skin types, from light to dark, including tanned patients. Its unique design, longer wavelength, and
innovative cooling allow extremely effective, safe and permanent results.
What do CoolGlide 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?
Most areas require 3-6 treatments. However, the number of CoolGlide treatments required for optimal
long-term benefits depends on multiple factors - hair thickness, the area treated and your hair's growth cycle.
Interestingly, not all hairs are actively growing at the same time and 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 your CoolGlide treatment, the area may appear a bit red and 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 you should not wax or
pluck your hair, but it is permissible to shave.
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 does the CoolGlide 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, the CoolGlide
effectively treats an area in just seconds that would take over an hour with electrolysis.
