About the Cutera Laser

Cutera was founded in 1998 with a goal of becoming the worldwide leading provider of laser and other light-based aesthetic systems to the aesthetic market. With easy-to-use products, dermatologists, plastic surgeons, gynecologists, primary care physicians and other qualified practitioners can offer safe, effective and non-invasive aesthetic treatments to their patients.
The first product, the CoolGlide® CV, was commercially launched in March of 2000 for hair removal, and every year since we have introduced at least one new product for our customers to treat additional aesthetic conditions.
A key feature of the laser is its upgradeable design; each time a new product is introduced, customers have been able to increase the capability of their earlier-generation systems by upgrading to the newest system.
Current applications of our lasert family include: permanent hair reduction on all skin types and tanned skin; treatment of vascular conditions, including leg and facial veins; a wide range of non-ablative skin rejuvenation applications; and the treatment of pigmented lesions.
Laser
Genesis™ Skin Rejuvenation
The
unique action of Laser Genesis™ targets the red discoloration
in the skin’s dermal layer. Laser Genesis™ is a safe,
non-ablative procedure that promotes healthy looking skin by reducing
diffuse redness, reducing pore size and improving skin tone and
texture. The procedure creates a gentle warming of the skin that
patients enjoy, and is truly a "no downtime" procedure.
Laser Genesis™ can safely, effectively and simultaneously
treat a wide range of facial concerns, such as broken capillaries,
skin discoloration, mottled pigmentation, and the symptoms of
rosacea. A thorough consultation with our staff will determine
the proper treatment for your specific needs.
Session
Duration: Approx. 30 minutes. Series of 6 Treatments at two week
Intervals Are Recommended For Best Results.
IPL
Laser Therapy for Pigmented Lesions
Sun spots or age spots, as they are commonly
called, are caused by chronic sun exposure. Our laser's unique
pulsed light hand piece has been optimized for treating areas
damaged by the sun, as well as for improving overall skin tone
and texture.
Session
Duration: Approx. 30 mins. Series of 3-5 Treatments at Monthly
Intervals Are Recommended For Best Results.
Laser
Hair Reduction
Our
laser is a non-invasive light therapy device specifically designed
to reduce undesired hair from all parts of the body. We can successfully
treat areas such as the back, shoulders, arms, legs and face.
Even sensitive areas such as the under arms, upper lip and bikini
line can be treated easily and with minimal discomfort. Our system's
unique design allows us to customize treatment, according to your
hair and skin color, hair texture, and location on the body. We
provide a safe, fast, gentle and effective method for hair reduction.
Session
Duration: May vary depending on the area treated. A Series of
5-8 Treatments at 4-6 week intervals Are Recommended For Best
Results.
Laser
Removal of Unwanted
Broken Capillaries & Spider Veins
This
laser treatment is a safe, fast, gentle and effective method for
removal of unwanted blood vessels on the face and body. In just
a few treatment sessions (in some cases only a single treatment
session), you can greatly improve the appearance of skin blemished
by unwanted spider veins and broken capillaries.
Session
Duration: Approx. 15 minutes. session duration varies according
to area being treated. 1-6 Treatments may be necessary for best
results.
Photodynamic
Therapy for Sun Damage,
Wrinkles, Pigmentation & Acne
Photodynamic
skin rejuvenation involves the application of Levulan, a photosensitizing
agent, which is then activated with a blue light. This results
in significant improvement in conditions such as Actinic Keratosis,
actinically damaged skin, and moderate to severe cystic acne.
Additionally, it improves wrinkles, pore size, skin texture, pigmentation,
rosacea, sebaceous hyperplasia, and potentially prevents the development
of skin cancer. This treatment also has the unique ability to
reduce oil glands, effectively treating stubborn acne vulgaris,
acne rosacea, and improve the appearance of some acne scars. This
combination therapy is revolutionizing how we approach skin rejuvenation
of damaged skin.
Duration:
Up to 1 Hour. To improve the appearance, a series of 2-3 treatments
2-4 weeks apart is most effective. Some patients are happy with
one treatment. More treatments can be done at periodic intervals
in the future to maintain the rejuvenated appearance of the skin.
TITAN™
"Skin Tightening" Laser Face-Lift
The
TITAN™ technology uses a unique light source and creates
tissue tightening of loose skin. Titan utilizes a safe, infrared
light to heat the dermis well below the skin's surface. This heating
can cause immediate collagen contraction. After the procedure,
there is instant tightening of existing collagen. In addition,
new collagen growth is stimulated, resulting in continued improvement
for up to 8 months after treatment. The combination of increased
collagen and increased tightness of the collagen matrix lasts
up to several years. TITAN™ has been shown in research trials
to work on various areas of laxity (sagging & drooping skin),
such as the face, neck, stomach, and upper arms. It is also effective
on loose skin from weight loss. This treatment provides skin and
tissue tightening without surgery, downtime, or pain.
Session
Duration: Approx. 25 minutes. Series Of Up to 3 Treatments Are
Recommended For Best Results.
Multi-Dimensional
Laser Rejuvenation Programs

more than one unwanted skin condition simultaneously providing
a fresher, clearer complexion with a youthful glow in no time!

This program is a combination of IPL and Genesis. Both treatments
can be done at the same session – this is an excellent option
for treating a combination of browns, reds and enlarged pores.
3D
Skin Rejuvenation
This program is a combination of IPL, Genesis and Titan –
again, everything can be done at the same appointment. This is
the “ultimate” in laser therapy – resulting
in increased collagen as well as smoothing out uneven skin tones,
decreasing pore size and decreasing surface wrinkles.

of treatments that will bring you the best possible results.
CUTERA
PEARL
This
new treatment addresses wrinkles and uneven texture while minimizing
the recovery time experienced from other more aggressive resurfacing
procedures. During treatment, the very top layer of your skin
is exfoliated. The stimulation caused by the laser results in
the remodeling of collagen, which creates a firm, toned look to
the skin. This is an excellent treatment that restores the skin's
structure, vitality and appearance.
Session
Duration: Approx. 40 minutes. Series of 2 Treatments Are Recommended
28 days apart. Results may last up to 2 years.
