How does the GentleLASE® system remove hair?
This laser targets the pigment located in the hair follicle and shaft. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle and this energy is converted to heat which results in damage to the hair follicle. This damage causes delayed re-growth of the hair, and in most cases permanent destruction of many of the hair follicles. Unlike electrolysis, which kills one hair follicle at a time, the laser reaches and treats hundreds of follicles at a time. Safely removing unwanted body hair without damaging the delicate pores and surface of the skin. Facial and bikini areas are usually completed in under ten minutes; legs, backs, and larger areas can take longer.
