What is Medical Hair Removal?
Medical hair removal is a method of hair removal that can only be performed by a doctor or nurse at a medical facility. Unlike the hair removal treatments done at beauty salons, which weaken the hair root, medical laser treatment uses lasers to destroy the hair root, resulting in a much more effective hair removal process. Since the effects of a single session are high, hair removal can be completed in a short amount of time.

Treatment Features
At our clinic, we perform hair removal using the GentleMax Pro with thermal destruction. It features two types of laser wavelengths that can effectively address various hair types and skin types, from coarse, thick hair to fine vellus hair. The system also includes a skin cooling gas mechanism that sprays cooling gas simultaneously with the laser treatment, protecting the skin's surface while alleviating pain.
- Downtime & Precautions
- There is almost no downtime. Redness may appear immediately after the treatment, but it will disappear the following day. In rare cases, redness, swelling, or itching in the hair follicles may occur.

QIs there pain during the treatment?
he GentleMax Pro treatment comes with a cooling system, so you will feel minimal pain. The skin is cooled simultaneously with the laser to reduce discomfort during the procedure. If you're sensitive to pain or feel uneasy, topical anesthesia is available for your comfort.

QHow many treatments are needed?
The number of treatments varies depending on individual factors and the area being treated, but an average of 4 sessions is recommended.
-
QHow long does the effect last?
Our clinic's hair removal treatment stops the function of the hair papilla, allowing some hair to be permanently removed after just a few sessions. However, the duration of the effects may vary depending on the hair growth cycle and the area being treated. In most cases, results can last for several years.
