Laser hair removal has become a popular method for long-term hair reduction, and Candela GentleLase Pro-U plays a leading role in this technology. At Crystal Medical, we distribute Candela lasers around Cyprus, helping beauty centers and clinics provide safe, efficient treatments. But what makes the GentleLase Pro-U so effective? Let’s explore the science behind this advanced technology and how it targets hair follicles for optimal results.

What Makes Laser Hair Removal Work?

Laser hair removal targets and damages hair follicles to prevent future hair growth. The laser uses light energy, which the pigment in the hair absorbs. This light converts into heat, damaging the follicle and stopping it from growing new hair.

However, the laser must penetrate the skin without harming the surrounding tissue. That’s where the Candela GentleLase Pro-U’s technology excels.

The Role of the Alexandrite Laser in the GentleLase Pro-U

The GentleLase Pro-U uses an Alexandrite laser that emits light at a wavelength of 755 nm. This wavelength is highly effective for targeting melanin in hair follicles. Studies have shown that this wavelength delivers excellent results, especially for individuals with lighter skin and darker hair.

The laser passes through the skin and reaches the hair follicle. The energy from the laser heats up the follicle, damaging it without harming the surrounding skin.

Why the GentleLase Pro-U Is So Effective

1. Precision: The 755 nm wavelength is ideal for targeting melanin in the hair. It ensures the laser delivers energy directly to the follicle with minimal scattering, so the surrounding skin remains unaffected.
2. Faster Treatments: The GentleLase Pro-U has a large spot size, which means it can treat more hair follicles per pulse. This reduces the time needed for each session.
3. Cooling Technology for Comfort: The device includes a cooling system that helps protect the skin during treatment. It reduces the risk of side effects like redness, providing a more comfortable experience.
4. Customizable Settings for Different Skin Types: While the 755 nm wavelength works well for lighter skin tones, the GentleLase Pro-U allows practitioners to adjust settings based on the client’s skin type and hair color. This flexibility ensures optimal results for each client.

How the GentleLase Pro-U Targets Hair Follicles

The treatment begins when the laser is applied to the skin. The light energy from the laser penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicle. This energy is converted into heat, raising the temperature of the follicle. As a result, the follicle is damaged and can no longer produce new hair.

Hair follicles are in different growth stages at any given time. The GentleLase Pro-U targets actively growing hair (in the anagen phase) most effectively. However, the treatment also impacts follicles in other stages, leading to long-term hair reduction over several sessions.
