What do this Laser treatments feel like? As the name implies, the Cool Glide hand piece cools and soothes as it glides along your skin. When the pulse of light is delivered, some patients experience a mild pinching or stinging sensation. No local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required. How many treatments do you need? Most areas require 6 – 8 treatments, spaced out over a period of 16 months. The number of Laser treatments you may require for optimal long-term benefits depends on various factors such as your hair’s thickness, the area treated, and your hair’s growth cycle. Interestingly, not all hairs are actively growing at the same time, but actually go through three distinct phases, growth, regression and resting. The Laser work by disabling the hair that is principally in the active growth phase at the time of treatment. Since other hairs will enter this active growth phase at different times, additional treatments may be necessary to disable all of the hair follicles in a given area. What happens after the treatment? Immediately following your Laser treatment, the area may appear a bit red and swollen. Around 3 to 7 days after treatment you may experience what seems to be regrowth of hair. Actually, most of these hairs are being shed as a result of your treatment and are not regrowing. In-between treatments you should not wax or pluck your hair, but it is permissible to shave. Are there any restrictions on your activity after treatment? Following the treatments, you can return to your normal activities right away. The use of sunscreen is recommended on any treated areas exposed to the sun. As always, it is a good idea to limit your sun exposure. What are the possible side effects? Slight reddening and local swelling of the skin, similar to sunburn may occur in some patients. These effects typically last for several hours or less. In rare instances, blistering may occur. If a blister occur do not scratch, it can result in a scar.
