How many treatments will I need?
Most areas require 3-6 treatments. However, the number of CoolGlide treatments
required for optimal long-term benefits depends on multiple factors - hair thickness, the
area treated and your hair's growth cycle. Interestingly, not all hairs are actively growing
at the same time and actually go through three distinct phases: growth, regression, and
resting. CoolGlide treatments 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 CoolGlide treatment, the area may appear a bit red and
swollen. Three to seven 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. Between treatments you should not wax or pluck your
hair, but it is permissible to shave.
What are the possible side effects?
Although patients experience few side effects, the most commonly noticed are slight
reddening and local swelling of the skin, similar to a sunburn. These effects typically last
for several hours or less. In rare instances, blistering may occur. Consult with your
medical professional for complete information on the benefits and risks of treatment.
How does the CoolGlide compare with electrolysis?
Electrolysis is a tedious, invasive, and painful process that involves inserting a needle
into each individual hair follicle and delivering an electrical charge to them one at a time.
Electrolysis often requires years of treatments at regular intervals. By delivering light
energy to hundreds of hair follicles at a time, the CoolGlide effectively treats an area in
just seconds that would take over an hour with electrolysis.
