Tired of shaving, waxing, and dealing with stubble, irritation, or last minute appointments. Laser hair removal offers a longer term approach to reducing unwanted hair by targeting the follicle. At Bello Corpo Med Spa in Woburn, MA, we use the Candela GentleMax Pro to personalize treatment based on your skin type, hair type, and goals.

Free Yourself From Constant Shaving and Waxing

Shaving can cause irritation and fast regrowth, and waxing can be uncomfortable and requires grow out time. Laser hair removal reduces hair growth gradually over a series of sessions. Many clients notice the hair grows back finer and less noticeable over time.

Whether you are treating legs, underarms, bikini line, back, or face, we will build a plan that fits your skin, comfort level, and schedule. Results vary by person.

How GentleMax Pro Laser Hair Removal Works

GentleMax Pro delivers laser energy to the hair follicle. Melanin in the hair absorbs the energy, which converts to heat. This heat damages the follicle to reduce its ability to produce hair, while protecting the surrounding skin when used with appropriate settings and cooling.

GentleMax Pro uses two wavelengths so your provider can customize treatment for many skin tones and hair types.

Alexandrite 755 nm is often used for lighter skin tones and darker hair.

Nd YAG 1064 nm is often used for darker skin tones because it targets the follicle more deeply while minimizing impact on surface pigment.

Because hair grows in cycles, a series of treatments is usually needed to target follicles during active growth. Your provider will recommend the right schedule for you.

Areas That Can Be Treated

The precision and adaptability of the GentleMax Pro make it suitable for effectively removing hair from virtually anywhere on the body. Your provider will create a plan based on your goals, hair pattern, and skin type. Common treatment areas where patients seek smoother skin include:

Face: Upper lip, chin, sideburns, jawline, and even a full face treatment.
Body: Underarms, chest, abdomen, back, and shoulders.
Limbs: Full or partial arms and hands, as well as legs and feet.
Sensitive Areas: Bikini line and Brazilian area.

What to Expect During Your Visit

Your journey to smoother skin is a clear and comfortable process. Here is what a typical visit entails:

Consultation: Your visit begins with a thorough conversation about your concerns and aesthetic goals. Your provider will review your medical history, examine the treatment areas, and design a personalized plan. This includes determining the estimated number of sessions you may need and the ideal schedule for your treatment session series.
Preparation: Before the laser treatment begins, the skin is cleansed to remove any makeup, lotion, or deodorant. You will be provided with protective eyewear. If necessary, the area will be shaved to ensure the laser energy is directed straight to the hair follicle.
Treatment: As the laser device is guided over your skin, you will feel quick pulses of warmth accompanied by a cooling sensation. The system’s integrated Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™) is a key feature, spraying a fine mist of cryogen onto the skin moments before each laser pulse. This cooling feature makes the process highly tolerable, with many guests comparing the sensation to a light snap from a rubber band. A small area like the upper lip may take only a few minutes, while larger areas can take longer.
Aftercare: Immediately following the treatment session, the skin may appear slightly pink and feel warm, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically subsides within a few hours. Your provider will give you simple post-treatment care instructions to ensure optimal results.

Laser Hair Removal FAQ

What precautions should I take before and after treatment?

You should avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners on the treatment area for at least two weeks before and after each visit. This is crucial for safety and effectiveness. Also, avoid waxing, plucking, and electrolysis for several weeks beforehand to ensure the hair follicle remains intact for the laser to target. Shaving is permitted and often recommended. After each session, keep the area clean, use gentle moisturizers, and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.

Are laser hair removal treatments painful?
