Laser Hair Removal in Paramus, NJ – Bergen Aesthetics

At Bergen Aesthetics in Paramus, NJ, board-certified gynecologist and aesthetic specialist Dr. Heripsime Ohanian, PhD, MD, FACOG, DABRM, DABLS offers advanced laser hair removal with the FDA-cleared Cutera CoolGlide® system. This treatment provides safe, effective, and long-lasting hair reduction for both men and women of all skin types.

Why Choose Laser Hair Removal?

Unwanted hair can be frustrating, embarrassing, and time-consuming to manage. Shaving, waxing, and plucking only provide temporary results, often leading to irritation, ingrown hairs, and constant upkeep. Laser hair removal in Paramus offers a long-term solution by targeting hair follicles at the root to permanently reduce hair growth over time.

What Makes Cutera CoolGlide® Different?

Unlike older laser systems that were limited to fair skin tones, Cutera CoolGlide® is safe and effective for all skin types — from very light to deeply pigmented. It features a unique cooling technology that keeps the skin comfortable while delivering precise laser energy to disable active hair follicles. This means fewer complications and better results for a wider range of patients.

Areas Commonly Treated

Laser hair removal can be performed on almost any area of the body, including:

• Face (upper lip, chin, sideburns)
• Underarms
• Bikini line and Brazilian
• Legs (upper and lower)
• Arms
• Back and chest (popular for men)

What to Expect During Treatment

Each treatment session is performed in-office and typically requires no anesthesia. The CoolGlide® handpiece delivers pulses of laser light while simultaneously cooling the skin for comfort. Patients may feel a quick stinging or snapping sensation, similar to a rubber band against the skin. Most sessions take 15–45 minutes, depending on the size of the area treated.

After Treatment & Recovery

You may experience mild redness or swelling, which typically fades within a few hours. Over the next 7–10 days, treated hairs will begin to shed naturally. Most patients return to work, the gym, or daily activities immediately after treatment. Sun protection is recommended on treated areas, and waxing or plucking should be avoided between sessions.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

Because hair grows in cycles, multiple treatments are needed for best results. The Cutera CoolGlide® laser is most effective on hairs in their active growth phase. Most patients achieve 70–90% permanent reduction after 4–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. The number of treatments depends on the treatment area, hair thickness, and individual hair growth patterns.
