Which laser is more effective for hair removal on pale skin; the Candela gentle max pro or the Soprano ICE platinum?

Question

So I'm looking into booking in for laser hair removal, however I'm torn between 2 clinics, both have outstanding reviews but use different lasers. One clinic uses the Candela gentle max pro and the other uses the Soprano ICE. I would like like to choose the one that has the most effective laser but I am unsure which one that is. I have very pale skin and my natural hair colour is a medium/mousy brown colour. I don't mind if any of them are painful, I would just like great results:) thank you!

Hi roseannaMay98

The Lumenis Duet is the newest innovation in hair removal.  Not only is it fast, but it is relatively painless! The effects from laser hair removal are permanent. Once the laser has destroyed the follicle it will not grow back. However, hormonal changes can cause new hairs to grow.  For more information about this procedure, please visit our website.

Both of these devices are excellent and should give you desired results if properly used. The issue isn't the machine but the person using it. The best machine can give sub-optimal results if not used properly.
I wish you the best
