Most patients describe the sensation as a brief snapping or warming feeling as each laser pulse is delivered. GentleMax Pro features an integrated cooling system that helps cool the skin before and after each pulse, improving comfort during treatment. The sensation can vary depending on the treatment area, hair density, skin type, and settings used.

The number of sessions depends on the condition being treated and your individual response. For laser hair removal, multiple treatments are typically needed because the laser is most effective when hair follicles are in the appropriate growth phase. The number and spacing of treatments will vary by treatment area, hair characteristics, skin type, and treatment goals. Dr. Rose will recommend a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.

GentleMax Pro is a non-surgical treatment with minimal downtime. After treatment, you may experience temporary redness, swelling, or small bumps around the treated hair follicles. These effects typically settle as the skin recovers. Depending on the treatment being performed, temporary changes to pigmentation or the appearance of treated vessels may also occur.

Yes. GentleMax Pro can be used on multiple areas of the face and body. It is commonly used for unwanted hair on areas such as the face, legs, arms, underarms, and bikini area. The appropriate treatment settings are selected according to the treatment area, skin type, hair characteristics, and your individual goals.

Results depend on the concern being treated. With laser hair removal, treated hairs gradually shed after the laser targets the hair follicles, with progressive reduction achieved over a series of treatments. For vascular or pigmented concerns, improvement develops as the treated areas heal and respond to the laser. Dr. Rose will discuss the expected timeline and number of treatments during your consultation.

GentleMax Pro may be appropriate for adults seeking long-term reduction of unwanted hair or treatment of selected vascular and pigmented skin concerns. Because the device uses both Alexandrite and Nd wavelengths, treatment can be customized for different skin types and individual needs. A consultation with Dr. Rose is the best way to determine whether GentleMax Pro is appropriate for you.

Preparation depends on the area and condition being treated. For laser hair removal, avoid waxing, plucking, or other methods that remove the hair from the follicle before treatment, as the follicle needs to be present for the laser to target it. Avoid excessive sun exposure and tanning before treatment, and follow any personalized skincare or medication instructions provided by Dr. Rose.

Pricing depends on the treatment area, condition being treated, number of sessions, and treatment protocol recommended for your individual needs. Dr. Rose will discuss your personalized treatment plan and pricing during your consultation.
