Candela GentleMax Pro – the technology behind your treatment

At dermAesthetics, we work with the Candela GentleMax Pro, a laser technology established in dermatology worldwide. Two wavelengths, integrated cooling, and precise control – for a treatment tailored to your skin and hair.

Candela GentleMax Pro laser device

A medically established standard

The Candela GentleMax Pro is among the most widely recognized laser systems in dermatology worldwide. Instead of relying on broad-spectrum light, it works with clearly defined wavelengths that target the hair follicle directly.

That is what sets real Candela laser hair removal apart from simple flash-lamp technology – and creates the foundation for precise, even results.

At a glance

The system in three specs

Two wavelengths

Alexandrite 755 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm in one system

Integrated cooling

A cooling spray before each laser pulse

Many skin types

Suitable for darker skin tones too

Two wavelengths, one treatment

The strength of the Candela GentleMax Pro lies in combining two lasers in one device. This allows the treatment to be tailored to skin type and hair structure, rather than working with a one-size-fits-all solution.

755 nm

Alexandrite laser

Especially effective for lighter skin types and finer hair. The shorter wavelength is strongly absorbed by the melanin in the hair.

1064 nm

Nd:YAG laser

Penetrates deeper into the skin, making it safe and effective for darker skin tones too – an area where many standard devices reach their limits.

DCD cooling

Extremely low-pain thanks to integrated cooling

The Candela GentleMax Pro features integrated dynamic cooling (DCD). Milliseconds before each laser pulse, a cooling spray is released onto the skin. This protects the skin's surface and makes the treatment noticeably more comfortable – especially in sensitive areas, a clear difference from methods without integrated cooling.

Candela laser hair removal compared to IPL

IPL devices work with broad-spectrum light, spreading their energy across a wide range. A real laser like the Candela GentleMax Pro uses a clearly defined wavelength – more precise, more targeted, and individually adjustable.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Alexandrite laser (755 nm) is especially suited to lighter skin types and finer hair, the Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm) also to darker skin tones. The Candela GentleMax Pro combines both in one system.
