Thinking about Botox therapy but aren’t sure of what to expect? Learn how easy it can be to finally address those creases around your eyes and the wrinkles across your brow without the need for surgery.
With warmer weather on the horizon, it’s time to consider the benefits of the laser hair-removal services available at Bergen Aesthetics. With the help of Dr. Heripsime Ohanian, you can get rid of unwanted body hair nearly anywhere on your body.
Laser hair removal with the Cutera® CoolGlide® laser gives you the smooth, hair-free skin you want for bikini season and shorts weather. Starting treatments now ensures you have your results in time for summer.
The Cutera CoolGlide system treats unwanted hair on your body regardless of your skin tone or color. The laser beams the light energy into the hair follicles to destroy hair growth and can address unwanted hair on areas like your:
Because treatment damages the follicles, they will no longer be able to grow new hairs, and over time, you’ll see a significant reduction in body hair.
The built-in cooling feature on the CoolGlide system helps soothe your skin during treatment, so you can treat unwanted hair with minimal discomfort.
Your hair grows in different cycles. In order to treat hair in each phase of growth, Dr. Ohanian customizes a treatment plan that involves a series of laser hair-removal sessions. She typically recommends four to six treatments to remove all hair in the treatment area.
We’ll help you schedule these session several weeks apart. Since it takes time to achieve your desired results, we recommend you schedule your first laser hair treatment in advance of the summer months.
Treatment with the CoolGlide laser system offers many benefits if you’re looking for an alternative to messy waxes and painful razor burn.
Some of the benefits of laser hair removal with CoolGlide include:
Some lasers can’t treat the hair on dark or tanned skin. CoolGlide is specially designed to treat unwanted hair on any skin type or color with excellent results.
Additionally, the laser energy effectively damages the hair follicles to stop hair growth but won’t damage surrounding skin in the treatment area.
When the laser energy moves through your skin, you might feel a mild stinging sensation in the treatment area that resolves when your session is complete.
Besides some minor redness and swelling, treatment with CoolGlide is tolerated well by many people, and the treatment requires no anesthetic.
After your laser hair-removal treatment, you can go right back to your usual routine without any downtime.
Your skin will be more sensitive after treatment, so you’ll need to keep your skin hydrated with a high-quality moisturizer. In the initial weeks after your treatment, you also need to limit your time in the sun and use sunscreen when you go outdoors.
After the laser destroys the hair follicles in the treatment area, they can’t grow new hairs. You can maintain your smooth, hair-free results in the long term and can finally get rid of razors, creams, and waxes for good.
