What is Laser Hair Removal?
Two highly effective and proven wavelengths work together to remove unwanted hair during this unique laser treatment. Regardless of the patient’s skin pigmentation, whether lighter or darker skin, the laser beam can penetrate into the pigment of the targeted hair follicles and disintegrate the hair shaft without causing any harm to the surrounding healthy skin tissue.
Laser hair removal is a highly effective and convenient treatment for eliminating or reducing hair on all areas of the face and body. The GentleMax Pro is one of the top non-invasive, energy based esthetic treatments. It is equipped with a Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) that delivers controlled, cooling bursts of cryogen that makes each treatment more comfortable. The different wavelengths create the optimal treatment for all skin types.
PRE-TREATMENT PREP
shave your treatment area 24-48 hours before your laser hair removal appointment
treatment area is clean and free of makeup, lotions, deodorant, and any other ointments or topical products.
avoid all kinds of tanning for at least 2 to 4 weeks before and after your treatment
aside from shaving, avoid all other hair removal methods for at least four weeks before your appointment including waxing, bleaching, tweezing, threading, or epilating
AVOID THESE MEDICATIONS & TREATMENTS
for 3 days before and after your treatment, please avoid iron pills over 65 mg
for two weeks prior to your treatment, avoid antibiotics, tretinoin/Retin-A, Aspirin, and any blood-thinning medications
you cannot do laser hair removal if you’ve taken oral isotretinoin (Accutane) or immunosuppressants in the last 6 months
POST-TREATMENT CARE
if your skin is slightly irritated, apply a cool compress, aloe vera, or skin-soothing lotions after the treatment
avoid any intense skin-renewing or exfoliating facial treatments, including microdermabrasion and chemical peels for at least 2 weeks before and after your laser treatment
avoid all unprotected sun exposure. Wear sun-protective clothing or sunscreen when going outdoors in the daytime
avoid sweating, intense exercise, or deodorant use for 24 hours after your treatment
for 24-72 hours after your treatment, avoid jacuzzis, saunas, steam rooms, or hot showers
we normally recommend you wait ten days after your laser hair removal treatment before shaving again, to avoid irritation
Vascular Lesions
Even though vascular lesions are relatively common skin abnormalities, they can have an impact on our self-confidence. The GentleMax Pro™ targets redness and broken blood vessels to reduce the appearance of unwanted vascular lesions. Most clients see improvement after a single 10 to 20 minutes session, and there is no downtime involved.
Port Wine Stains
A port-wine stain is a type of birthmark. It got its name because it looks like maroon wine was spilled or splashed on the skin. Though they often start out looking pink at birth, port-wine stains tend to become darker (usually reddish-purple or dark red) as kids grow. The GentleMax Pro™ works by using laser technology to deliver a controlled amount of intense energy to the targeted area, safely and effectively destroying follicles without harming the skin around them.
Hemangioma
Hemangioma is a bright red birthmark that shows up at birth or in the first or second week of life. It looks like a rubbery bump and is made up of extra blood vessels in the skin. A hemangioma can occur anywhere on the body, but most commonly appears on the face, scalp, chest or back. The GentleMax Pro™ works by using laser technology to deliver a controlled amount of intense energy to the targeted area, safely and effectively destroying follicles without harming the skin around them.
Telangiectasia
Telangiectasia forms when dilated tiny blood vessels cause threadlike red lines or patterns on the skin. These patterns form gradually, often appearing in clusters and can develop anywhere on the body. They are commonly known as “spider veins” because of their fine and web-like appearance. The GentleMax Pro™ system uses laser technology, directing powerful yet gentle light-based energy into the skin. The laser targets the treatment area, causing the blood inside it to coagulate. Over time, the vein collapses and eventually disappears.
Diffuse Redness
Diffuse redness refers to a condition caused by dilated capillaries, most commonly affecting the nose, forehead, and cheeks. These enlarged blood vessels do not present themselves as defined vasculature, but rather as a general facial redness, (for example, the often-used description of “rosy cheeks”). Diffuse facial redness can occur as a result of aging, prolonged sun exposure, pregnancy, childbirth, oral contraceptives, and estrogen replacement therapy; heredity can also play a part. The GentleMax Pro™ works by using laser technology to deliver a controlled amount of intense energy to the targeted area, safely and effectively destroying follicles without harming the skin around them.
Venous Lake
This is generally a soft, compressible dark blue to violet-colored lesion commonly found on sun-exposed surfaces of the border of the lip, face, and ears. The GentleMax Pro™ works by using laser technology to deliver a controlled amount of intense energy to the targeted area, safely and effectively destroying follicles without harming the skin around them.
Leg Veins
Varicose and spider veins are damaged veins. We develop them when tiny, one-way valves inside the veins weaken. In healthy veins, these valves push blood in one direction — back to our heart. When these valves weaken, some blood flows backward and accumulates in the vein. Extra blood in the vein puts pressure on the walls of the vein.
The GentleMax Pro™ system uses laser technology, directing powerful yet gentle light-based energy into the skin. The laser targets the treatment area, causing the blood inside it to coagulate. Over time, the vein collapses and eventually disappears.
Pigmented Lesions
Pigmented lesions are skin spots and growths caused by melanocyte cells. These cells produce melanin, which gives color (pigment) to the skin. Examples include freckles, moles, birthmarks, and “age spots.” Some people are born with pigmented lesions. Others develop skin lesions over time from aging, changing hormones, and sun exposure.
The GentleMax Pro™ works by using laser technology to deliver a controlled amount of intense energy to the targeted area, safely and effectively destroying follicles without harming the skin around them.
WRINKLES
As we age, we often start noticing more skin imperfections, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmented lesions. The GentleMax Pro™ effectively tightens skin while minimizing fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful appearance. This solution also targets benign keratosis and photodamage, providing our clients a more even skin tone.
Onychomycosis (Nail Fungus)
It is no mystery that nail fungus can be challenging to treat. For that reason, it is essential to use the right tools. The GentleMax Pro™ effectively reduces yellowing and improves skin texture around the affected nail(s). This technology destroys fungus using targeted heat during a short treatment session, about 30 minutes or less, depending on your individual needs.
Nail fungus can affect both toenails and fingernails. The GentleMax Pro™ is FDA-approved and requires no downtime, meaning clients can resume normal day-to-day activities following their treatment. This solution stimulates a natural healing process, and you can expect steady improvement.
Pseudofolliculitis Barbae
Pseudofolliculitis barbae is irritation of the skin due to hairs that penetrate the skin before leaving the hair follicle or that leave the follicle and curve back into the skin, causing a foreign-body reaction.
The GentleMax Pro™ works by using laser technology to deliver a controlled amount of intense energy to the targeted area, safely and effectively destroying follicles without harming the skin around them.
