Laser Hair Removal
What is Laser Hair Removal?
The GentleYAG Pro Laser Hair Removal system is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that targets and removes unwanted hair quickly and effectively. Designed to treat large areas in seconds, laser hair removal is not only fast and efficient but also helps reduce ingrown hairs, improves skin texture, and offers smoother, hair-free results for both face and body.
Why choose GentleYAG Pro Laser Hair Removal over other systems?
The GentleYAG Pro stands out for its advanced laser technology, featuring a longer wavelength that penetrates deeply into the hair follicle. This makes it highly effective for both fine hair, like a woman’s upper lip, and coarse hair on larger areas, such as a man’s back.
Unlike many other laser systems, the GentleYAG Pro is suitable for a broad range of skin types, including light, dark, and even tanned skin. Its Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD) enhances comfort by cooling the skin before each laser pulse, significantly reducing discomfort and minimizing skin irritation. This technology allows for safer, more comfortable treatments with fewer side effects.
With the GentleYAG Pro, you benefit from faster sessions, optimal results, and long-lasting, permanent hair reduction.
What areas can be treated by with Laser Hair Removal?
Laser Hair Removal effectively removes unwanted hair from the face and body. Its advanced technology treats various skin types and tones, making it ideal for large areas like the back and legs, as well as delicate regions such as the underarms and face, ensuring your comfort even in sensitive and hard-to-reach areas.
What can I expect during my visit?
During the treatment, the hand piece cools and soothes as it moves along the skin. There might be a mild pinching or stinging sensation. Although no pain medication is necessary, some prefer to use a topical anaesthetic for more sensitive areas.
How many Laser Hair Removal treatments are required for best results?
Most areas typically require 3 to 6 treatments. However, factors such as hair thickness, growth cycle, and the area being treated can affect the number of sessions needed. Laser Hair Removal targets hair during the active growth stage (anagen phase), so multiple sessions are necessary to effectively treat hair that enters different growth stages over time.
You may shave between treatments, but avoid plucking or waxing, as these methods can disrupt the hair’s growth cycle and affect the results.
What is the downtime?
The treated area will be a bit red or swollen after the treatment but this should resolve itself within a few hours. You can go back to your normal activities right away but it is necessary to use sunscreen when exposed to the sun.
