The GentleYAG laser system uses a high-energy wavelength that emits a gentle beam of light to target problem hair without affecting the healthy surrounding skin. The skin is first sprayed with a cooling device to increase comfort during the procedure. The GentleYAG has a long pulse duration to effectively remove hair no matter how fair or dark the patient’s skin type. It eliminates the endless hair removal headaches of waxing, plucking, and shaving. The procedure is less painful than electrolysis, less tedious, and can be completed quickly. Delicate pores and skin are safe during this procedure. The laser energy is transformed into heat permanently destroying the hair at the follicle without damaging the surrounding skin. The whole process can typically be completed in under 30 minutes to an hour.
