While many clients tolerate laser without requiring pain relief, it's overpromise to state that treatment will be painless for all consumers.

There are plenty of different kinds of anesthetics (pills, creams, injections) but they are not completely safe. They vary widely in toxicity, side effects, potency, duration of action, solubility and ability to penetrate cell membranes. Some people can have hypersensivity reactions.

Local anesthetics work by causing a reversible block on nerve fibers, so using topical anesthetics may have hidden effect - you may feel no pain while the laser intensity is high enough to burn the skin.

In our clinic we us the new technology of Synercool Cryotherapy system - the Zimmer Cryo Chiller is the answer for reduction of pain associated with Laser hair removal or spider vein and Intense Pulsed Light (Fotofacial) treatments.

The device allows to keep the skin chemical free and to make the procedure even more comfortable. It also has skin protective effects due to the cooling of the epidermis.

We are pleased to continue to make laser and IPL treatments as painless as possible.

This machine blows a steady stream of cool air onto the area of skin that is being treated at various flow rates. This cooling action helps to make the procedure more comfortable and is available to all our patients at no added cost. Be sure to ask the technician about the Zimmer Cooler at your consultation.
