In response to the ever-increasing demand to remove unwanted hair on virtually any body area, the ability to offer superior results to the widest variety of patients is critical. The selection of laser equipment at our medical center offers a variety of depth and pulses to safely and effectively treat all skin types including tanned skin and the broadest range of hair colors, diameters and depths.
Laser treatment is a non-invasive procedure used to permanently reduce excess unwanted hair from all parts of the body.
What is treatment like?
Preliminary setup involves cleansing and shaving the area to be treated. A laser is then directed toward the area and produces a beam of highly concentrated light. Without damaging the surrounding tissue, controlled pulses of light penetrate the skin and are absorbed by hair follicles. The heat generated in the process discourages and ultimately destroys the hair and its potential for regrowth. Post-treatment includes a cleanup of the treated area and the application of a sunblock. Large areas such those found on the back, shoulders, abdomen, and legs are rapidly treated. Smaller facial areas like the lip, chin, and beard can be treated in minutes.
What are the benefits?
FDA-approved for permanent hair reduction
No “down time.†Immediately resume regular activities
Minor pain and discomfort compared to some other treatment methods
Large areas can be quickly treated
How many treatments are required?
Because the laser affects only hair follicles that are in the growth phase, more than one treatment may be necessary. During a consultation, the approximate number of required treatments will be determined based on your particular situation.
Who are candidates for treatment?
Millions of men and women have been successfully treated. Treatment is customized according to hair color, texture, and the area being targeted. Treatment for most hair colors typically yields high levels of success and patient satisfaction. Treatment is effective on all skin types, including dark-skinned individuals of all ethnic origins.
Is treatment painful?
The procedure is well tolerated by most patients since only a mild sting is felt. A topical numbing cream may be used for the treatment of more sensitive areas.
Are there any possible side effects?
Side effects are rare. Sensitivity, irritation, and redness may occur at the treatment site but then quickly disappears. Susceptibility to these side effects will be identified during your consultation.
Pro-Wave 770-Hair Removal
Cutera’s Pro-Wave 770 laser is the first infrared programmable wavelength device used for the removal of hair that is too difficult for other lasers to remove. The custom design allows the laser to recognize all types of hair, even the fine velous hair.
Each treatment, depending on the area, takes anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour. Most patients experience a mild stinging sensation with little discomfort. A topical numbing cream may be used for the treatment of more sensitive areas. Because hair grows in phases, several treatments are necessary for optimum results. During your consultation, the number of treatments with is determined for your specific needs.
