Laser Hair Removal
Body Image Beauty & Laser Clinic have invested heavily in the latest 'state of the art' laser technology from Syneron-Candela - the world's leading laser manufacturer and supplier to over 10,000 doctors globally.
The 'GentleMax Pro Laser Hair Removal' device from Candela targets the hair follicle with laser energy, destroying it at its root while preserving the surrounding skin, with the following main benefits to patients:
- Smoother skin, free of unwanted hair
- Effective
- Ultra-fast
What are Gentle Hair Removal treatments like?
Laser energy is delivered through a small handpiece operated by your practitioner. The laser delivers an intense beam of light, which is absorbed by the hair follicle and converted to heat. The heat damages the hair follicle while the surrounding tissue remains unaffected. Your skin may be red immediately following the procedure. This typically lasts from a few minutes to several hours after the procedure.
Are the treatments painful?
Gentle Hair Removal treatments use a patented Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™), which prepares the skin for treatment by spraying the upper layer with a cooling burst of cryogen just milliseconds before the laser pulse. DCD helps ensure that Gentle Hair Removal treatments are as comfortable as they are effective.
What precautions should I take throughout this process?
Avoid sun exposure at least two weeks before treatment. Do not bleach, pluck or wax 4 to 6 weeks before and after treatment. Wait for tanned skin to fade before beginning treatment.
How long do Gentle Hair Removal treatments take, and how many treatments will I require?
Treatment times may vary depending on your specific needs. Hair growth is reduced after each treatment and the number of treatments required will be based on your hair color and type, body area and skin tone.
