Laser Hair Removal

The future is here with Laser Hair Removal on the GentleMax Pro, the gold standard for hair removal! Many of us have unwanted body hair and/or facial hair that is frustrating to deal with. Sometimes the hair is in hard-to-shave areas like the back, or results in unsightly razor burn. Other alternatives to dealing with body hair such as waxing, are too painful and time-consuming while you wait for hair to grow out before getting it removed again. Tweezing or threading definitely doesn’t work for large areas of unwanted hair, and electrolysis just takes too long.

Did you know that a woman spends on average more than $10,000 and nearly two month of their lives managing unwanted hair. The woman who waxes once or twice a month will spend more than $23,000 dollars over the course of her lifetime. Laser hair removal truly saves you time, money and the hassle.

GentleMax Pro

The Gentle Hair Removal laser targets the hair follicle with intense laser light energy for thermal destruction to provide permanent hair reduction over the course of a few treatments. With fast treatment times, Gentle Hair Removal delivers a more comfortable patient experience through its distinctive Dynamic Cooling Device™. This cooling system sprays the skin before each laser pulse with a cooling burst of cryogen over the treatment area, providing a Cooling Protection Factor over 50% greater than contact or air cooling for optimal comfort!

How Does It Work?

During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.

On average, most people will need 6-8 treatments, however, a select few might need 8-10 sessions.

Unwanted Hair

Since the 90’s, laser removal of hair has been at the forefront of removing unwanted hair. And since that time the technology and procedure has improved dramatically. There are now many different lasers on the market, which are differentiated by factors such as the laser energy’s wavelength, the ‘pulse duration’ (which disables the hair follicle), the width of the laser beam and the overall quality of hair removal (‘efficacy’). It’s also important to understand that our GentleMax Pro laser can only safely treat skin types 1-5 on the Fitzpatrick scale.
