CoolGlide

CoolGlide laser treatment at Verve Cosmetic Clinic. Speak with our team about laser hair removal and vein treatment suitable for a range of skin types.

CoolGlide Laser Sydney

CoolGlide is a laser system used for laser hair removal and the treatment of leg and facial veins. Its longer wavelength reaches deeper into the skin, which makes it suitable for a wider range of skin types, including darker skin, than some other lasers.

The system includes built-in cooling to help keep the skin comfortable during treatment. As with all laser treatments at Verve, a consultation and skin assessment come first.

CoolGlide is often used for:

Laser hair removal
Leg and facial veins
A range of skin types, including darker skin

How Does CoolGlide Work?

CoolGlide delivers laser energy at a wavelength that is absorbed by the target — the pigment in a hair follicle, or the blood in a small vein. The energy heats and disables the target while a cooling system protects the surface of the skin. Its longer wavelength allows it to be used across more skin types than many lasers.

What Can CoolGlide Treat?

CoolGlide is commonly used for laser hair reduction and for treating small leg and facial veins. The right settings and number of sessions depend on the area, your hair or vessels, and your skin type, all of which are assessed at your consultation.

What to Expect and Downtime

You may feel a warm snapping sensation during treatment, eased by the cooling, and some redness afterwards that settles. Hair removal and vein treatment usually need a course of sessions. We’ll give you a clear plan and aftercare advice.

Who Is CoolGlide Suitable For?

CoolGlide suits a broad range of skin types, but suitability still depends on your skin and the concern. We assess this at your consultation and confirm whether it’s the right treatment for you.
