( Laser Hair Removal)

Candela gentlemax pro plus, gentlemax, and gentleYAG in Dubai

Smooth, hair-free skin is no longer a dream, it’s a reality made possible by next-generation laser systems. Among the global leaders in aesthetic laser technology, Candela stands out for its precision, safety, and proven results.

The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus, GentleMax, and GentleYAG are advanced medical-grade laser platforms designed to deliver permanent hair reduction for all skin types, including sensitive and darker tones.

At CosmeSurge, we use Candela laser systems for laser hair removal because of their superior performance, patient comfort, and long-term effectiveness. Whether you’re targeting facial, body, or bikini hair, these systems provide smooth, long-lasting results with minimal discomfort and downtime.

Understanding candela laser technology

The Candela Gentle series combines two of the most effective laser wavelengths in dermatology: The Alexandrite laser (755 nm) and the Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm). Together, they make the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus one of the most versatile and powerful devices for permanent hair reduction and skin rejuvenation.

Each system in the Candela line — GentleMax Pro Plus, GentleMax, and GentleYAG — is engineered for precision, targeting hair follicles without damaging the surrounding skin.

Let’s explore how each of these works and why they’re trusted by dermatologists and laser specialists worldwide.

1. Candela gentlemax pro plus

The Candela G-Max Pro Plus is the newest and most advanced model in the Gentle series. It combines dual-wavelength technology (Alexandrite + Nd:YAG) for exceptional versatility and performance.

How it works?
The Alexandrite laser (755 nm) effectively targets fine to medium hair on lighter skin tones, while the Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm) penetrates deeper, making it safe and effective for darker and tanned skin.

The system’s dynamic cooling device (DCD) releases a short burst of cooling spray milliseconds before each laser pulse, protecting the skin and enhancing comfort.

Key features
  • Dual-wavelength laser for all skin types (I–VI)
  • Enhanced fluence and repetition rate for faster treatments.
  • Integrated cooling system for pain-free experience.
  • FDA-approved for permanent hair reduction.
Benefits of candela gentlemax pro plus
  • Fast and efficient: Covers large areas quickly with uniform energy delivery.

     

  • Precise targeting: Focuses only on pigment in hair follicles.

     

  • Comfortable: Advanced cooling ensures minimal discomfort.

     

  • Safe for all skin tones: Ideal for both fair and dark complexions.

     

  • Versatile: Also treats pigmentation, vascular lesions, and skin rejuvenation.

     

The GentleMax Pro Plus represents the gold standard in medical-grade laser hair removal, ensuring smoother results with fewer sessions.

2. Candela gentlemax

Before the Pro Plus, the Candela GentleMax was one of the most trusted systems in the world for professional laser hair removal.

It also features the same dual-wavelength Alexandrite and Nd:YAG lasers, making it versatile for treating both light and dark skin types.

Why it’s effective?
The GentleMax system uses selective photothermolysis, a process in which the laser targets melanin (pigment) within the hair follicle. The heat from the laser destroys the follicle’s ability to regrow hair without damaging the surrounding tissue

Benefits
  • Proven results for long-term hair reduction.

     

  • Gentle and safe on sensitive skin.

     

  • Adjustable parameters for customized treatments.

     

  • Effective for both fine and coarse hair.

     

The Candela GentleMax remains a popular choice for clinics and dermatologists due to its combination of speed, safety, and superior results across different body areas.

3. Candela gentlemax

The Candela GentleYAG laser uses a single Nd:YAG 1064 nm wavelength. It’s specifically designed for darker skin tones, making it one of the safest and most effective lasers for hair removal in Fitzpatrick skin types IV–VI.

How GentleYAG works?
Unlike other lasers that can cause pigmentation in darker skin, the Nd:YAG wavelength penetrates deeper into the skin, bypassing the melanin in the surface layer and directly targeting the hair follicle.

Benefits of gentleYAG laser
  • Safe for all skin tones, including deep and tanned skin.

     

  • Ideal for thick, coarse hair

     

  • Reduces ingrown hairs and irritation.

     

  • Minimal discomfort due to advanced cooling technology.

     

At CosmeSurge, the GentleYAG laser is frequently used for patients with darker complexions or those with sensitive skin prone to pigmentation.

What to expect during laser hair removal

Your Candela G-Max pro laser hair removal experience at CosmeSurge is quick, comfortable, and results-driven.

Step 1: Consultation
Our dermatologists evaluate your skin type, hair color, and medical history to determine which Candela system (GentleMax Pro Plus, GentleMax, or GentleYAG) best suits your needs.

Step 2: Preparation
The treatment area is cleansed, and any surface hair is shaved to ensure the laser energy targets follicles beneath the skin. Protective eyewear is provided for safety.

Step 3: Laser treatment
The Candela device emits short, controlled pulses of light that penetrate the skin to target hair follicles. Simultaneously, the dynamic cooling device sprays a cooling burst to protect the skin and reduce discomfort.

Step 4: Post-treatment care
Mild redness may appear for a few hours post-treatment, similar to a light sunburn. Cooling gels or soothing creams may be applied. You can resume normal activities immediately.

Areas that can be treated
Candela laser systems can safely treat nearly all body areas, including:

 

  • Face (upper lip, chin, sideburns)

     

  • Underarms

     

  • Arms and legs

     

  • Bikini and Brazilian areas

     

  • Back and chest

     

  • Neck and shoulders

     

The versatility of the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus allows for precise treatment of both large and delicate areas.

Number of sessions and results

Laser hair removal requires multiple sessions because hair grows in cycles. Most patients need 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results.

After each session, hair regrowth becomes finer, lighter, and slower. With consistent treatment, patients achieve up to 90–95% permanent hair reduction. Results vary depending on hair type, skin tone, and hormonal factors, but Candela laser technology ensures lasting results with minimal maintenance.

Safety and side effects

The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus and GentleYAG systems are FDA-approved and clinically tested for safety. When performed by trained professionals, side effects are minimal and temporary. Possible mild effects may include:

 

  • Slight redness or sensitivity (resolves in hours)

     

  • Temporary swelling around hair follicles

     

  • Rare pigment changes (usually transient)

     

At CosmeSurge, every procedure is performed under strict medical supervision in sterile conditions for maximum safety and comfort.
