What is gentlepro max and gentlelase?

Question

Sonia Badreshia-Bansal, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. These are lasers by Syneron/Candela.  The Gentlelase is a 755nm laser, the Gentle Yag is a 1064 yag, and the Gentle Max Pro is both lasers in one box.  They are able to treat all skin types for laser hair removal, and are at the top of the hair laser field in my opinion.  They safely and effectively remove more hair than any other laser system I have ever used.  A diode laser or IPL is just not up this level of effectiveness.  A diode laser is very reliable, and good for most clients, but not as much as the combination of these lasers. I hope this helps!

The GentleMax Pro is a single consolidated system that delivers a range of treatments - all skin type hair removal, as well as pigmented and vascular lesions. It is a dual wavelength laser platform that combines the fastest and most powerful 755 nm Alexandrite laser with the 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser for high performance treatment capabilities in terms of speed, efficacy, ease-of-use, outstanding performance, safety and patient satisfaction. Similarly the Syneron GentleLase laser uses the 755nm Alexandrite is great at treating lighter skinned patients (i.e., skin types I & II) and the 1064nm YAG is the choice for darker skinned patients (skin types V & VI). But often those patients in the middle can present unique challenges. The 1064 allows for treatment of more pigmented skin whereas the Gentle Lase is an Alexandrite and best only for light skin colors.
