THE CUTERA COOLGLIDE LASER DIFFERENCE
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. Its unique design, longer wavelength, and innovative cooling design allow extremely effective, safe and permanent results.

THE PROWAVE DIFFERENCE
The ProWave hair removal system delivers a specially tailored light source for permanent hair removal. An additional patient benefit is the ability of the device to treat large areas such as women’s legs and men’s backs quickly and safely.

WHAT DO THE TREATMENTS FEEL LIKE?
For both hair removal systems, when the pulse of light is delivered, some patients experience a mild stinging sensation.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
Most areas require 4-6 treatments. However, the number of treatments required for optimal long-term benefits depends on multiple factors: hair characteristics, 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. Both treatment types 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?
Following your treatment, the area may appear slightly red and swollen for an average of 12 to 24 hours. Some hairs will expel immediately after treatment; others will take 1-2 weeks to fall out. This is the normal shedding process. New hairs begin to grow as the next group of hairs move into their active growth phase. Between treatments you should not wax or pluck your hair, but it is permissible to shave.

ARE THERE ANY RESTRICTIONS ON MY ACTIVITY AFTER TREATMENT?
Following the treatment, you can return to normal activities right away. The use of sunscreen is recommended on any treated areas exposed to the sun and it is recommended that you avoid immediately applying anything irritating to the skin.

WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS?
Although patients experience few side effects, those most commonly noticed are slight reddening and local swelling of the skin, similar to a sunburn. These side effects typically last for several hours up to a day. In rare instances, blistering may occur. Consult with our medical professionals for complete information on the benefits and risks of treatment.

HOW DOES THE CUTERA SYSTEM 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 treatment at regular intervals. By delivering light energy to hundreds of hair follicles at a time, the Cutera system effectively treats an area in just seconds that would take over an hour with electrolysis.

HOW DOES THE CUTERA SYSTEM COMPARE WITH OTHER HAIR REMOVAL METHODS?
Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams are all temporary methods which must be repeated on a frequent basis. The Cutera system offers permanent hair removal for lasting results and can treat the fine hair on a woman’s upper lip just as easily and effectively as the course hair on a man’s back.
