Are you embarrassed by unwanted facial hair? Is there more hair growing on your back than on your head?
Or maybe you just want to clean up the bikini area so you never have to suffer from the after-shave pimples. Whatever your
reason, we have the technology to provide you with permanent hair reduction.
Shaving, plucking, waxing and depilatory
creams only provide temporary relief from unwanted hair. The advent of electrolysis brought excitement but was soon found
to be tedious, time-consuming and uncomfortable.
Now there is a safe and simple way to rid yourself of unwanted hair.
Unlike electrolysis which kills one hair follicle at a time, our Cutera Laser treats hundreds of hair follicles. It is
suitable for a wide range of skin types, but works best on dark, coarse hair.
How Does it Work?
There are three stages of hair growth. The active growth phase is called Anagen. Catagen
is the regression phase when the lower part of the hair stops growing but is not shed and the final stage is called Telogen.
This is the resting phase when the hair falls out in preparation of new hair growth. The most effective treatment occurs during
the Anagen phase when the hair contains an abundance of melanin. The Cutera Laser we use focuses on this melanin. Precisely
controlled pulses of energy is applied to the hair follicle and the root is destroyed without damaging surrounding tissue
or skin.
Because hair grows in cycles, more than one treatment is required. It will depend on skin
color and coarseness of the hair as well.
During your first treatment, some of the hair will be in the "resting" (Telogen) phase.
As the energy focuses on the melanin in the actively growing hair, the follicle in the Telogen phase has no melanin and thus,
remains active until subsequent treatment. Each treatment will result in less hair coming back, as well as hair growing progressively
lighter in color, finer and slower-growing.
