I have been using the Gentle Max and Gentle Pro by Candela for years and I am thrilled with the results for my patients. It is entirely painless, safe, and highly effective. Please consult an expert in laser hair removal to complete the process and have the best hair removal results. I prefer these lasers to the IPL for laser hair removal. Best, Dr. Green
Finding and targeting the best laser machine is a goal for all of us. As technological innovation brings out new machines quarterly, the target is always moving. Right now, the GentleMax laser is one of the best machines available, as it has two lasers, each best-suited for a specific skin type. There are many machines out there, each of which produces fine results when operated with sensitivity and touch. Find a professional you trust, and build a relationship that leads to your goals.
The GentleMax is a great laser for laser hair removal and in the right hands – the right laser technician – may be the best that you can use. But remember, there are a lot of very good systems for the treatment of unwanted hair, and this system is just one of them. It will also depend on your hair, your skin color – and the skill of the technician to determine how well you will do with these procedures.
The GentleMax is actually two lasers in one. It is Candela's GentleYag (an ND:Yag laser) combined with their GentleLase (an Alexandrite laser). I have experience using several lasers for hair removal over the last nine years (from IPL to the LightSheer Diode and many in between) and I think that the best laser for hair removal on light skin is the GentleLase and the best laser for hair removal on dark skin is the GentleYag. Therefore, the GentleMax (which is really just both of these lasers combined into one box) would be an excellent choice.
Laser hair removal may be helpful, but unfortunately it is unlikely that you can get insurance to pay for it. I would discuss this with your treating dermatologist and see whether they can work with you on getting insurance pre-authorization. Every insurance company will have different...
Yes. You can only shave, bleach or use Nair between sessions. No waxing and tweezing between sessions as this removes the hair follicle the laser targets.
The first issue is that electrolysis is different than laser hair removal. One uses heat developed by light to remove hair (lasers) and the other uses heat developed by electricity (electrolysis) to remove hair. Because we perform only laser hair removal we will avoid commenting on electrolysis....
