How many sessions are needed to see results?

Because hair moves through anagen, catagen, and telogen phases, not all hair is removed in a single session. Repeated sessions are needed, and the number required may vary from person to person depending on the area and hair condition.

Is the treatment very painful?

The GentleMax Pro Plus protects the epidermis with DCD cryogen cooling, reducing the heat sensation and irritation felt during treatment. A numbing cream may be applied for those sensitive to pain, and the degree of sensation may vary from person to person.

Can darker or tanned skin be treated?

The 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength is relatively less affected by epidermal melanin and can be applied to a range of skin tones. However, since recent tanning or skin condition can affect how it is applied, a consultation with our medical team is needed before treatment.

Can I return to normal activities right after treatment?

Most people can resume daily activities the same day. Temporary redness or slight warmth around the follicles may appear right after treatment but usually subsides over time, and recovery may vary from person to person.

What are the intervals between sessions?

Taking the hair growth cycle into account, sessions are usually repeated about every 4-8 weeks. The interval may be adjusted depending on the area and hair condition.

Is there anything to be careful about before and after treatment?

It is best to avoid strong sun exposure and tanning before and after treatment, and to prepare the area by shaving. Waxing or plucking the hair out by the root should be avoided before treatment. Please consult our medical team for details.

What is GentleMax Pro Plus Women's Lower Body Hair Removal?

GentleMax Pro Plus women's lower body hair removal is a treatment that uses Candela's GentleMax Pro Plus laser to manage unwanted hair across the entire female lower body, including the thighs, calves, bikini line, and V-line. The device is a dual-wavelength laser combining a 755nm Alexandrite wavelength and a 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength, so the most suitable wavelength can be selected according to skin tone, hair thickness, and the sensitivity of each area.

How It Works

Laser energy is selectively absorbed by the melanin in the hair, delivering heat to the hair follicle and thereby suppressing hair regrowth. The 755nm Alexandrite wavelength is used for lighter skin and finer hair, while the more deeply penetrating 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength is used for areas where pigmentation is a concern or that are relatively sensitive. To protect the epidermis, the GentleMax Pro Plus uses a DCD (Dynamic Cooling Device) cooling method: a burst of cryogen is sprayed onto the skin an instant before each laser pulse, lowering the surface temperature to reduce the risk of burns and irritation and to ease the heat sensation felt during treatment.

GentleMax Pro Plus Women's Lower Body Hair Removal at Seye Clinic

Before treatment, our medical team assesses your hair condition, skin tone, and the sensitivity of each area, then selects the appropriate wavelength and intensity between the Alexandrite and Nd:YAG options. Treatment proceeds with the DCD cooling system protecting the epidermis, and a numbing cream may be used when needed for a more comfortable experience. Taking the hair cycle into account, we guide you through repeated sessions at regular intervals and explain aftercare in detail.

After the treatment, stinging, redness, burns, a hot sensation, blisters, itching, hives, oozing, inflammation, infection, acne, bleeding, pigmentation, and allergies due to individual constitution may occur.

After the treatment, avoid intense exercise that causes heavy sweating, jjimjilbang (Korean sauna), saunas, and alcohol for one week, as these can trigger inflammation.
