Unwanted and difficult to manage facial and body hair is a problem faced by many men and women.

A large number of these individuals have made the decision to forego shaving and waxing in favor of laser hair removal for longer-lasting results.

However, many devices for laser hair removal have been limited in their ability to safely and effectively treat darker and recently tanned skin.

Cutera has recognized these issues and created Excel HR to reduce and eliminate hair on the face on body for all skin types.

What is Excel HR?

Excel HR is a dual-wavelength laser that reduces the amount and thickness of hair growth on the face and body.

Treatment areas can include: legs, underarms, bikini, arms, chest, back, neck, and face.

How Does Excel HR Work?

This device is a combination of an Alexandrite laser that operates at a 755 nm wavelength and an nd:YAG laser that operates at a 1064 nm wavelength.

By targeting pigment in hair follicles, the laser’s energy can destroy and weaken hair without the risk of harming or burning skin.

In addition to hair removal, Excel HR has the ability to diminish vascular and benign pigmented lesions.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Hair Removal with Excel HR?

Unlike other hair removal lasers that work best on patients with fairer skin and dark hair, Excel HR can treat all skin types and tanned skin.

This achievement is especially significant considering laser hair removal is the most in-demand and high-volume aesthetic treatment being performed today.

Excel HR Benefits

Compared to other devices, Excel HR offers dual-wavelength precision that can destroy hair follicles without a significant contrast between the patient’s hair and skin color.

Additionally, this laser has a sapphire cooling system that is applied before, during, and after each pulse of energy. As a result, patients report that Excel HR is virtually painless and that they prefer it to other hair removal lasers.

Results

Patients can begin to note a reduction and thinning of hair in the treated area within two weeks. Most individuals require a series of four-to-six sessions spaced six-to-eight weeks apart.
