September Laser Hair Removal Event

Start now with laser hair removal packages at A New Image and be ready for a smoother body next spring.

Licensed Aesthetician Gina Picart uses the Cutera Coolglide to remove hair from a patient’s face.

What do waxing, electrolysis and razors have in common? They’re all methods of removing unwanted facial and body hair. Some of these methods are painful, and all require a repeat of the process – some sooner than others. However, there is another option, one that is a safe and effective way to reduce unwanted body and facial hair.

A New Image Cosmetic Laser Center in Claremore offers Laserscope technology, an FDA cleared permanent hair reduction for all skin types. Although summer is over, A New Image is offering reduced prices on their most popular packages beginning September 1.

“If you start treatment in September,” says Licensed Aesthetician Gina Picart, “you’ll be ready for next spring.” That’s because there are six treatments in each package, with each treatment performed six weeks apart. “It takes some time from start to finish to complete the series of six treatments, and it’s best to not be sun exposed prior to treatment,” she adds, “so fall/winter is an ideal time to begin and be done just in time for spring and summer.”

Unlike waxing, tweezing and depilatories, laser hair removal results are more long-term. The Cutera laser hair removal system used at A New Image delivers a specially tailored light source for permanent hair reduction for a wide range of skin types. Cutera can remove hair from all parts of the body including the face, legs, arms, underarms and back, as well as sensitive areas like the chest and bikini line. Women and men have benefitted from the Cutera system.
“The laser sends specific concentrated beams of light through the skin that are absorbed by the pigment present in the hair follicle shafts,” Picart says. “Because hair grows in cycles, repeated treatments are necessary to destroy the hair follicles.”

Although there is some mild discomfort – some patients experience a mild pinching or stinging sensation – during sessions, patients are sent home with a prescription strength topical anesthetic to be applied 20 to 25 minutes prior to each treatment. “Upon arrival at the office, the patient should be ready for the treatment,” says Picart.

As for the time involved for each treatment, it depends on the size of the area. “Obviously, smaller body areas take less time, usually 30 minutes or so, but it becomes more involved when you’re doing larger areas like legs and the back,” she explains.

Picart is a licensed and trained laser technician with almost 10 years experience in aesthetic laser technology and application. “Laser hair removal technology was the first laser modality that I learned, and I have been trained on the Cutera laser at A New Image,” she says. “We offer very affordable prices.”

In addition, Picart stresses the advantage of having a safe, effective treatment in a medical office with state-of-the-art technology by qualified experienced staff under the guidance of an on-site medical director, Dr. Dwight Korgan. “Having a professional staff in a comfortable environment is a plus,” she adds. “We create relationships with our patients and meet their needs. Our goal is to surpass their expectations.”

So, don’t settle for out-of-date hair removal solutions when A New Image Cosmetic Laser Center offers state-of-the-art technology, great prices and qualified staff right here in Rogers County.
