Candela
Gentle Max
Pro Plus ®

At Yety Laser, we use the latest-generation Candela Gentle Max Pro Plus laser. This laser combines an alexandrite crystal and an Nd:YAG crystal. We combine this laser with a pulsed-cold cryotherapy device (Mecotec Premium) to cool the treatment area to -32 degrees, thereby improving results and minimizing discomfort.

Laser hair removal works by targeting the melanin in the hair with a beam of light that is converted into heat and destroys the hair follicle at the root, without damaging the skin. The hair does not grow back because the bulb is no longer supplied with blood by the microvascular structures.

Laser treatment is particularly effective on thick, dark hairs that are rich in melanin, as this allows for better absorption of the laser energy. However, white, red, and blond hairs cannot be treated.

Selective photothermolysis is the scientific principle behind lasers: the light targets only the hair, is converted into heat, and destroys the follicle without damaging the surrounding tissue. The laser beam is not a UV beam and can be used on all parts of the body.

Several laser hair removal sessions are necessary because the laser only affects hairs in the growth phase (anagen), and not all hairs grow at the same time. It is estimated that 20% of the hairs are destroyed during each session.

Yes, the Candela laser is suitable for all skin types (phototypes), including medium to dark skin tones, thanks to the combined use of Alexandrite and ND:YAG wavelengths.

Laser hair removal feels similar to using an electric epilator. To be perfectly honest, it’s generally well tolerated. We use a cooling system set to -32 degrees to reduce discomfort. An anesthetic cream may also be prescribed before the session to numb the treatment area.

The difference between laser and pulsed light (IPL/diode) is that the laser emits a precise, more powerful, and targeted wavelength, delivering more effective and long-lasting results. The laser beam from the Candela Gentle Max Pro is generated mechanically by a crystal. In an IPL/diode machine, this beam is generated by an LED lamp.

No gel is applied during laser hair removal sessions with our Candela laser. This is because the laser machine does not come into contact with your skin. Gels are used only with pulsed light (IPL) and diode lasers.

The laser permanently destroys hair by disabling the hair follicle. After completing the full treatment course, regrowth is significantly reduced or even eliminated. As you age, new hair may grow (due to hormonal changes). That’s why we offer lifetime packages that include annual touch-up sessions.

Yes, the laser is safe for the skin and internal organs when used with certified technology, appropriate settings, and a standardized protocol, as is the case at Yety Laser.
