The Cutera CoolGlide system is the best laser hair removal system for all skin types. It is ideal for the face, chest, arms, legs, and bikini areas. Most areas require three to six treatments. Prior to treatment, we recommend no waxing or plucking of the hairs for approximately one month. Patients are able to shave. Occasionally, there may be some redness after treatment, but most patients have minimal skin changes. These treatments result in permanent hair reduction. Over time, new hair follicles may form requiring further treatments, typically years down the line.
