Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses laser technology to target and reduce unwanted hair by targeting the hair follicles, resulting in long-lasting hair reduction.

The Candela GentleMax Pro combines two laser wavelengths: Alexandrite and Nd, which allows it to treat various skin types effectively and precisely. The laser emits pulses of light energy that are absorbed by the pigment in hair follicles, permanently reducing hair growth over time.
