Laser hair removal works by using specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and reach the hair follicles. The light energy is absorbed by the melanin in the follicles, converting it into heat that destroys the follicle tissue and inhibits future hair growth. In essence, laser hair removal selectively targets and damages hair follicles without harming the surrounding skin. Because hair growth cycles vary among individuals, 4-6 sessions are typically needed to achieve optimal results.
The Candela GentleMax Pro, developed by Candela and FDA-approved, is a cutting-edge laser hair removal system. It features advanced Syneron-Candela DCD dynamic cooling technology, which adjusts cooling and timing to enhance comfort during treatment. The device operates without direct skin contact, reducing the risk of cross-infection. Its large spot size decreases the number of sessions needed compared to traditional methods, improving efficiency. Additionally, the GentleMax Pro not only removes hair but also addresses issues like enlarged pores and dull skin tone, further enhancing overall skin texture.
