Laser Hair Removal with excel HR in San Antonio, TX

excel® HR by Cutera is a high-performance laser hair removal system that safely and effectively reduces unwanted hair for all skin types. Using dual wavelengths and advanced cooling, excel® HR delivers long-lasting hair reduction with comfort, precision, and minimal downtime.

What is excel HR?

excel® HR is a dual-wavelength laser system from Cutera® combining:

  • a 755 nm Alexandrite laser, which is absorbed well by melanin and works deeply for lighter to medium skin tones
  • a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser, which penetrates deeper and is safer for darker skin tones and tanned skin

How excel HR Works

Laser energy is targeted at the melanin in hair follicles during the growth phase. The treatment delivers pulses of light that heat up the follicles, damaging their ability to regrow hair. The cooling system helps to protect the skin surface. Because hair does not grow all at once, multiple treatments are needed to catch hairs in the growth phase. excel® HR’s dual wavelengths allow treatment across different skin tones, hair colors, and body areas.

Who Is a Good Candidate for excel HR Laser Hair Removal?

excel® HR is ideal for adults who want a long term solution to unwanted hair and are ready to move beyond shaving or waxing. It is safe for all skin types, including tanned skin. The best candidates can commit to a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart. It is not recommended for those who are pregnant, have active skin infections, or are using products that increase photosensitivity.

What to Expect During Treatment

During your Excel® HR session, a cooling sapphire tip is placed against the skin while the laser targets unwanted hair at the follicle. You may feel a quick snapping or warming sensation with each pulse, but the integrated cooling keeps treatment comfortable. Sessions are typically quick, depending on the size of the area being treated, and you can return to normal activities right away. Mild redness or sensitivity may occur briefly, similar to a light sunburn, but this usually resolves within hours.

How Long Do excel HR Results Last?

Results build over time. After completing a full series (often 4-8 treatments depending on hair type, skin type, and area), many clients see long lasting reduction in regrowth. Some maintenance treatments may be needed over time to treat new or persistent hair.

What Makes excel HR Different From Other Hair Removal Lasers?

excel HR’s dual wavelengths give flexibility to treat different skin types and hair textures more safely and effectively. The sapphire cooled tip helps protect the skin surface while deeper energy works on hair follicle. The system’s adjustability in spot size and fluence makes treatments more efficient and comfortable.
