Yes. With the right technology, laser hair removal is safe and effective on both light and darker skin tones.
🔬 How the laser finds the hair
The laser energy is absorbed by melanin, the pigment in the hair. This weakens the follicle and gradually reduces its ability to grow new hair. That is why laser works best on dark, thick hair.
🌗 Why the machine matters
The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus combines two laser technologies, Alexandrite and Nd:YAG. This lets it treat a wide range of hair types, from fine to coarse, on both light and darker skin tones, with a high safety profile across all skin types.
❄️ Comfort and protection
Its built-in cooling system soothes the skin before each pulse, which reduces discomfort and protects the skin at the same time.
💡 Good to know
Fine or light hair responds more slowly and may need more sessions. The most suitable technique is chosen at your first visit, based on your skin type, hair color, hair density and the treatment area.
