Why Gentle Max Pro is the Gold Standard for Laser Hair Removal

13 February, 2023

We pride ourselves on offering the most effective and innovative treatments to our patients. One of our most popular treatments is laser hair removal using the Gentle Max Pro laser machine. In this blog post, we will explain why this machine is the best on the market and the science behind the treatments, which is easy enough for patients to understand.

Firstly, what is the Gentle Max Pro laser machine? This state-of-the-art machine is a dual-wavelength laser that emits two different wavelengths of light - 755nm and 1064nm. The 755nm wavelength is most effective for treating lighter skin tones, while the 1064nm wavelength is better suited for darker skin tones. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of patients.

So, why is the Gentle Max Pro laser machine the best on the market? Firstly, it is incredibly effective at removing hair. The laser targets the pigment in the hair follicle, heating it up and destroying the follicle so that it can no longer produce hair. This process is called photothermolysis, and it is the gold standard for laser hair removal. The Gentle Max Pro laser machine is able to deliver energy to the hair follicle in a way that is both gentle and effective, resulting in smooth, hair-free skin.

Another reason why the Gentle Max Pro laser machine is the best on the market is that it is safe for all skin types. Some older laser machines were only effective on certain skin tones, but the Gentle Max Pro can be used on anyone, regardless of their skin color. This is because of its dual-wavelength technology, which allows it to adjust to the patient's skin tone and deliver the right amount of energy to the hair follicle.

The Gentle Max Pro laser machine is also incredibly fast. It has a large spot size, which means that it can cover a larger area of skin in a shorter amount of time. This makes it ideal for treating larger areas of the body, such as the legs or back, as well as smaller areas like the upper lip or chin.

Now, let's talk about the science behind laser hair removal. As we mentioned earlier, the laser targets the pigment in the hair follicle. This pigment, called melanin, absorbs the light energy from the laser, which heats up the follicle and destroys it. The hair that is currently in the follicle will fall out within a week or two, and the follicle will be unable to produce new hair.

It's important to note that laser hair removal is not a one-and-done treatment. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser is only effective on hair that is in the active growth phase. This means that multiple treatments are required to achieve the desired results. Most patients need between 6-8 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. After this, they may need occasional maintenance treatments to keep the hair from regrowing.

So, what are the benefits of laser hair removal using the Gentle Max Pro laser machine? Firstly, it is a long-lasting solution to unwanted hair. Unlike shaving or waxing, which only remove hair temporarily, laser hair removal destroys the hair follicle so that it can no longer produce hair. This means that patients can enjoy smooth, hair-free skin for months or even years after their treatments.

Laser hair removal is also much less painful than other hair removal methods. While there may be some mild discomfort during the treatment, it is much less painful than waxing or epilating. Plus, there is no risk of nicks or cuts, as there is with shaving.

Finally, laser hair removal is a convenient solution for busy patients. Each treatment session only takes a few minutes, and there is no downtime afterward. Patients can return to their normal activities immediately after their treatment, making it the go to hair removal modality.

In conclusion, if you're looking for a long-lasting, effective, and convenient solution to unwanted hair, laser hair removal using the Gentle Max Pro laser machine is the perfect option for you. With its dual-wavelength technology, the Gentle Max Pro is able to deliver energy to the hair follicle in a way that is both gentle and effective, resulting in smooth, hair-free skin.
