A woman spends on average more than $10,000 and nearly two month of their lives managing unwanted hair. The woman who waxes once or twice a month will spend more than $23,000 dollars over the course of her lifetime.

Gentle laser hair removal treatment is faster and more comfortable than standard laser hair removal treatment. There’s 80% permanent hair reduction in just 3 treatments making GentleMax more convenient and cost-effective in the long run!

GentleMax lasers work by selectively targeting the hair follicle with intense pulses of light energy for thermal destruction, but without damaging the surrounding tissue.

The epidermis is protected by the Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™), which sprays the treatment area before each laser pulse with a liquid cryogen coolant to make the procedure as comfortable as possible!

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect during laser hair removal treatment?

Treatments take place in your practitioner’s office. Your practitioner will use a small handpiece to deliver an intense burst of energy onto targeted areas of the skin.

Can Gentle Hair Removal be done on darker skin tones?

Yes! Many laser hair removal treatments don’t cater to all skin types, but there’s a Gentle Hair Removal treatment that’s right for you, no matter your skin tone. Check with your local provider about which Gentle treatment is right for you.

How long does a Gentle laser hair removal treatment take?

A treatment can take as little as a few minutes to as long as an hour, depending on the treatment area and the condition being treated. Both legs can often be treated in as few as 15 minutes, as can an average-sized man’s back.

Is Gentle laser hair removal painful?

Some patients may feel slight discomfort, which has been compared to snapping a rubber band against the skin. This discomfort resolves quickly and is minimized by our patented Dynamic Cooling Device. Be sure and talk this over with your practitioner.

How many treatments will I need?

Multiple treatments are required to achieve the full hair removal effect. The hairs on your body are not always at the same stage, so you’ll need to undergo a few treatments, an average of six to eight weeks apart, to catch them all in the growth stage.

What can I expect after treatment?

A cool compress or gel pack may be applied for additional comfort after your treatment. Any redness or swelling should resolve in a few hours.

What precautions should I take after treatment?

After your treatment, your skin will be much more prone to sun damage, so be sure to use sunblock with SPF 30 or greater. In the first few days after treatment, don’t scrub or rinse the treated areas with abrasive skin cleansers. Your practitioner may advise additional precautions.

Are there side effects?

While side effects – such as redness, swelling, hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, blistering, or purpura (a bruise-like condition) in the treated area – can occur, it is rare for them to be permanent, and will usually go away in a few days. Your provider will have more information about potential side effects.

Before & After

Nail Fungus Infections

In addition to hair removal, The GentleMax Laser is also an effective treatment for nail fungus, also called onychomycosis. It brings welcome relief – and confidence – to thousands who suffer from this embarrassing, unhealthy condition.

Although nail fungus infections are common, they can be very difficult to treat. The GentleMax Pro Plus is powerful enough to penetrate the nail, reaching down to the infected nail beds. Then, the heat energy generated by the laser kills the persistent microbes that cause the various fungi.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is nail fungus?

Exactly as the name implies, it is a fungus that grows under your nails, most often your toenails. Nail Fungus infections are unsightly and embarrassing. The infected nails become yellow, thick and hard to cut. As the infection worsens, it can lead to discomfort, pain, or even bad odor. This is different from Athlete’s Foot in which the fungus infects the skin of the feet.

What causes Nail Fungus Infection?

Fungal organisms – as well as some yeasts and molds – cause the infection. But there are several factors that increase the risk and growth of the infection.

  1. Age: Older individuals are at higher risk of nail fungus due to diminished blood flow and compromised immune systems.
  2. Damp feet: Warm, moist conditions, like those in sweaty socks and shoes are conducive to fungal growth.
  3. Public Exposure: Walking barefoot in moist communal places like gyms, pools, and showers increase the likelihood of contracting a fungus.
  4. Circulatory Disorders & Diabetes: These conditions reduce blood flow to the feet and compromise the immune system, increasing the chance of infection.
  5. Sharing Items: Sharing contaminated personal items like nail clippers, footwear, socks, or towels can elevate the risk of acquiring nail fungus.

Is the Gentle Max Pro laser nail treatment painful?

Most people do not experience any pain. If you have some pain during the procedure, the laser power may be decreased to reduce any warmth or pain.

How many treatments are required?

The number of treatments varies on the degree of infection.
