Yeongdeungpo GentleMax Pro Plus Hair Removal Effectiveness

Explained by a doctor

'GentleMax Pro, GentleMax Pro Plus...

It feels like doing pronunciation practice like “ganjang gongjang gongjangjang,” and I still don’t really understand the difference.'

Not long ago, during a hair removal consultation, I received a funny, creative question saying they didn’t quite understand the difference between GentleMax Pro and GentleMax Pro Plus.

I think that’s because hair removal devices keep evolving, and since the device names are similar, it is hard to clearly tell the difference just from the name.

GentleMax Pro Plus can be seen as an upgraded version of the existing GentleMax Pro device.

Today, let’s look at the areas in which GentleMax Pro Plus has improved compared with previous devices in hair removal procedures.

The core of GentleMax Pro Plus

GentleMax Pro Plus is a laser hair removal device newly introduced by Candela in the U.S. after 11 years.

The key to hair removal performance is the principle of “selective photothermolysis,” a technology in which the laser selectively targets only the melanin pigment in the hair, applying heat and precisely targeting only the hair follicle.

It can remove hair intensively without affecting the surrounding skin.

Another major advantage is that it allows you to choose between two wavelengths depending on the situation.

For example, 755nm can be used for fine hair such as peach fuzz on the face, while 1064nm can be used for thick hair on the arms or legs, allowing for a customized approach.

Simply put, you can think of it as similar to opening different locks with different keys.

Safety and convenience - cooling system

Safety is important in laser hair removal procedures, and no matter how effective it is, its value is diminished if pain or side effects are significant.

GentleMax Pro Plus is equipped with a feature called the DCD cooling system.

Just before the laser is fired, a cooling agent is sprayed onto the skin surface to momentarily lower the temperature, reducing pain and skin damage while still delivering enough heat to the hair follicle.

A notable feature is that pain is significantly reduced, making the procedure much more comfortable than before.

However, sensitivity to pain varies greatly from person to person, so please make sure to have 충분한 상담 before the procedure and consider using a numbing cream if necessary.

Differences from the existing GentleMax Pro

Compared with the existing GentleMax Pro, GentleMax Pro Plus offers about 38% stronger energy output.

Higher output means stronger energy can be delivered to the hair follicle.

In addition, a larger area can be covered with each laser pulse, which shortens the procedure time.

And the shorter the laser exposure time, the more powerfully and precisely the energy can be delivered in an instant, even with the same amount of energy.

GentleMax Pro Plus has a shorter laser exposure time than before (3ms → 2ms), making it possible to perform more precise treatment even on fine, thin hair.

Thanks to these changes, faster and more effective hair removal has become possible.

Of course, to make good use of these performance improvements, the experience and skill of the practitioner handling the device are also very important.

Points to check when receiving the procedure

If you are considering a hair removal procedure, be sure to check a few things.

During the pre-procedure consultation, your skin type and hair condition should be accurately evaluated.

Also, please check whether safety management is properly carried out during the procedure.

For example, make sure to confirm whether eye protection goggles are worn, whether the cooling system is functioning, and whether post-procedure care is being carried out systematically.

Lastly, it is also important to check whether the clinic provides clear post-procedure care instructions.

This is because aftercare such as sun protection, moisturizing, and precautions has a major effect on the results.

Yeongdeungpo GentleMax Pro Plus offers improved performance over previous devices in terms of output, treatment speed, and safety, but a good device does not necessarily guarantee good results.

Customized treatment that matches an individual’s skin condition and hair characteristics, the hands of an experienced practitioner, and systematic aftercare must all come together to achieve satisfying results.

If you are considering a hair removal procedure, I hope you will pay attention not only to the device’s performance, but also to how it is used and whether consultation and a customized approach are carried out properly.

Thank you. This was U&I in Yeongdeungpo^^
