About The Treatment
What Is Candela GentleMax Pro® Laser Hair Removal?
Candela GentleMax Pro uses focused light energy to target pigment in hair follicles. This energy produces heat that damages the structures responsible for hair growth, helping reduce unwanted hair over a series of treatments.
The system combines two types of laser hair removal technology: Alexandrite at 755 nm and Nd at 1064 nm. These provide different treatment options for suitable lighter and darker skin tones.
Hair grows in cycles, so one appointment cannot treat every hair at its most responsive stage. Your course is planned around the area being treated and how your hair responds. The aim is lasting reduction, with maintenance appointments where needed.

How It Works
Targeted Professional Hair-Reduction Treatment
The laser targets pigment within suitable hairs, while the wavelength and treatment settings are selected with your skin in mind. Cooling helps improve comfort during treatment, although the sensation varies between people and treatment areas.
For dark skin laser hair removal, wavelength selection is especially important. Nd is generally preferred for darker skin because it is less readily absorbed by pigment in the skin’s surface. A careful assessment is still essential: no device or patch test removes every risk.
Professional Assessment
Discuss your skin tone, hair colour, previous hair-removal treatments and any history of sensitivity or pigmentation changes. Tell your practitioner about recent tanning, medicines and relevant skin conditions so these can be considered before treatment.
Personalised Treatment Settings
Your practitioner selects the wavelength and settings appropriate to the assessed area. GentleMax Pro offers Alexandrite and Nd options; it is a laser system, unlike IPL, which uses broad-spectrum light.
Course and Review
Appointments are spaced to account for hair growth cycles and your response. Progress reviews help guide the remaining course and any maintenance treatment. Hair colour, thickness and hormonal influences can affect results.
Your Laser Journey
From Consultation to Hair-Reduction
Consultation
Talk through the areas you want treated, your goals and your medical and skin history. Ask about expected improvement, the estimated course and current pricing before deciding to proceed.
Patch Test
A small area is tested to assess your skin’s response. Follow the preparation instructions and allow the advised assessment interval before your treatment appointment.
Application
Attend your Candela GentleMax Pro session with the area prepared as instructed. Protective eyewear is used during treatment. You may feel brief warmth or a snapping sensation; tell your practitioner if you feel uncomfortable.
Review
Follow your aftercare guidance and protect treated skin from sunlight. Temporary redness or swelling can occur. Report unexpected reactions promptly, and review your progress before continuing the course.

BrowsLaser Hair Removal Leeds FAQs
Find answers to common questions about laser hair removal, Candela GentleMax Pro®, treatment areas, patch testing, sessions and professional laser treatments in Leeds.
How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal uses controlled light energy to target pigment within suitable hair follicles. The energy is converted into heat, helping reduce the follicle’s ability to produce new hair. Because hair grows in different cycles, a course of treatments is usually needed.
What laser technology is used at Revival Skin & Beauty?
Revival Skin & Beauty uses the Candela GentleMax Pro® system, which combines Alexandrite and Nd laser technologies. Treatment settings are selected according to factors such as your skin tone, hair type, treatment area and patch-test response.
Is laser hair removal suitable for different skin tones?
Laser treatment can be suitable for a range of skin tones when the appropriate technology and settings are used. A professional consultation and patch test are carried out first so your practitioner can assess your skin, hair characteristics and suitability.
Which areas can be treated with laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal can be used on many areas of the face and body, including the upper lip, chin, side of the face, underarms, arms, bikini area, legs, back and chest. Treatment plans can be tailored according to the areas you would like to target.
How many laser hair removal sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies from person to person because hair growth, density, skin type and treatment area are different for everyone. Since only hairs in certain stages of the growth cycle respond effectively at each appointment, multiple sessions may be recommended.
Do I need a patch test before laser hair removal?
Yes. A consultation and patch test are important before starting your treatment course. The patch test allows your practitioner to assess how your skin responds to the laser and helps determine suitable treatment settings.
Does laser hair removal permanently remove all hair?
Laser treatment is designed for long-term hair reduction rather than guaranteeing complete permanent removal of every hair. Results vary between individuals, and maintenance treatments may sometimes be recommended depending on future hair growth.
What should I expect after a laser hair removal treatment?
Temporary redness, warmth or mild swelling can occur around the treated area after laser treatment. These reactions are usually part of the skin’s normal response, although individual experiences vary. Your practitioner will provide appropriate aftercare instructions.
How do I know if laser hair removal in Leeds is right for me?
A professional consultation at Revival Skin & Beauty in Leeds is the best starting point. Your practitioner can assess your skin tone, hair colour and thickness, treatment area, medical information and goals before recommending a personalised laser hair removal plan.
