GentleLASE Laser System

Lasers have been used for many years for a variety of medical cosmetic procedures including treatment of facial and leg veins, age spots and skin rejuvenation.  The GentleLase System, a revolutionary long-pulse, high-energy alexandrite laser emits a gentle beam of light that passes through the skin to the hair follicle where it is absorbed.  The laser energy is transformed into heat, which destroys the hair follicle leaving the surrounding skin unaffected.  The skin is further protected during treatment by a cooling device, which provides patients with increased comfort.  The GentleLase selectivity helps to protect the skin, while effectively treating the unwanted hair. *
 

GentleYAG Laser System

Traditional hair removal techniques, such as shaving, plucking, waxing and depilatory creams can provide temporary relief.  Until now, the only recognized way to remove hair permanently has been by electrolysis.  The GentleYag Laser System is an advanced long-pulse, high-energy ND:YAG laser for hair removal. This system can uniquely remove unwanted body hair on all skin types without damaging the delicate pores and structure of the skin. *

Facial and bikini areas are usually completed in less than ten minutes; legs, backs and larger areas can take longer.  Topical anesthesia can be used prior to treatment.  The number of treatments required depends upon your skin color, hair color and coarseness of the hair.  Approximately 2-3 treatments are necessary for most people.
