I went to a medspa that told me I have type IV skin and they are going to use the YAG for the first 3 treatments(until my hair is thinner) at increasing intensities and then the Candela laser for the rest. They said the reason is to minimize the risk of burning my skin and because you cannot increase the intensity as much on the Candela? I don't know if this is effective and if I should continue treatment at the facility. What do you think?
