Whether you're looking to remove unwanted hair on your whole body, the Candela GentleMax Pro is a safe and reliable choice."
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The GentleMax Pro laser device operates using a combination of two wavelengths, Alexandrite (755nm) and Nd:YAG (1064nm), allowing for safe and effective treatment of a wide range of skin types. The device works by emitting high-energy light beams, which are absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle or skin lesion, damaging the target area while leaving surrounding tissue unharmed. This process ultimately results in hair removal or the removal of unwanted pigmented lesions. The GentleMax
Pro also features a patented Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD), which sprays cryogen onto the skin just before each laser pulse to help minimize discomfort and protect the skin.
