Medical alexandrite laser hair removal in Sofia

GENTLE LASE PRO is the fastest laser for hair removal. A treatment on a small area measuring 10×10 cm will take approximately 5–7 minutes. This includes entering the treatment room, preparing for and carrying out the hair removal treatment, and wrapping up.

Hair removal of A full leg treatment takes 40–45 minutes.

For pregnant and breastfeeding women It is not advisable for them to undergo laser hair removal. Not because it has been proven to be dangerous for them, but simply because there have not yet been any clinical trials involving pregnant women.

Safety first!

The GentleLase Pro is used to treat the widest range of hairstyles – from fine and light to thick and dark. It is the world’s most effective laser for removing fine and light hair, even on the face.

Please bear in mind, however, that we are talking about light-coloured hairs here, not white ones. Hair without pigment (white and grey hairs) cannot be removed by laser. The same applies to moss.

We always recommend 6 procedures, provided the client does not have any hormonal issues or other circumstances. The reason we do this is that hair does not grow at the same rate all over the body. At any given time, only around 20% of the hair follicles are supplied with blood.

Hairs grow to a certain length, after which they fall out and are replaced by a new „batch" of hairs. Hair removal is carried out when the hairs are in the anagen (active) phase of growth and are still attached to their root – because that is what we want to destroy.

Per-person procedures are carried out during 30–45 days; on the hands, underarms and intimate areas – on 45–60 days, and on foot through 60–90 days.

Don’t trust salons that always book you in every 30 days. Having hair removal every month isn’t harmful, but it isn’t effective and works out much more expensive.

Clinical trials conducted by Syneron Candela demonstrate that 89% permanent removal on the hairs for about 15 years following 6 treatments with GentleLase Pro.

The safety of the GentleLase Pro has been proven by numerous clinical trials, carried out by independent scientists over the last 20 years.

If anyone promises you a higher hair removal rate, they are trying to mislead you. The 100 per cent that we can and do offer you relates solely and exclusively to the truth. Our philosophy is to tell you the whole truth and to provide you with the best possible realistic results.

The laser technology used in our device is the most successful in the world and ensures 80-89% permanent removal on hair growth after 6 treatments. The remaining 11% consists of vellus hair – very fine, translucent, sparse and soft hairs that do not feel rough to the touch and are only visible at very close range.

The human body is designed to have body hair and resists getting rid of it, however much we may try to do so.

Please note that if, after just 6 treatments, a person loses 89% of their body hair for A WHOLE 15 years or more, that’s more than just a success. Most devices achieve results in 8–10–15 sessions; follow-up treatments are required every 3–6 months, and the effects never last for more than 1–2 years.

This way, we save you time and money. You don’t pay in advance for packages containing more treatments than you need; instead, you can book additional treatments as and when required at a much lower price.

In order to be able to treat hair removal with a laser, The hair must be shaved off cleanly. Waxing or other methods of removing hair from the root are not suitable, because the laser light must reach the root of the hair in order to destroy the follicle.

If you usually remove hair using wax or an epilator, you should wait before your first laser treatment at least 3 weeks. This is because this period is necessary for new hair, connected to the root, to grow back, so that the laser treatment is effective.

Afterwards, between treatments, the hair in the treated areas is removed only by shaving, trimming with clippers or cutting with scissors, if they are on the person. Under no circumstances should you pull it out!

Let’s reassure those who are worried about their hair becoming coarse after shaving or about an unpleasant prickling sensation when touched. Our laser produces results after just the first treatment, and such unpleasant side effects do not occur.

The effects of laser hair removal can be seen after the very first treatment. In this method, a laser is used to target hair follicles that were in the growth phase and are on the surface of the skin. For those that were in the anagen (i.e. active) phase of their growth cycle, the following stages will be observed:

I: The hairs will break through, and so-called ‘false growth’ will be observed in the first few days following the procedure.

II: The hairs will fall out – this happens no sooner than two weeks after the treatment, depending on the area we have treated.

III: This is followed by a period during which there will be no hair growth – a hair-free period lasting at least two weeks, although this also depends on the area being treated.

IV: Shortly before it is time for the next treatment, new hairs will start to grow back. However, these are not the hairs that have already been treated with the laser, but the next „batch" of hairs in that area.

Supporting procedures must be carried out whenever and IF growth is observed, which is noticeable or bothers you.

Sometimes, following hormonal changes (pregnancy, hormonal imbalance, illness, the menopause), it may be necessary to carry out a maintenance treatment. Or if, during the course of six treatments, the intervals were not adhered to, anagen phases were missed, or there was tanning, and we have adjusted the parameters accordingly.

In most cases, we manage to remove the hair after 6 sessions, and follow-up treatments are then required rarely – every 1–2 years or according to individual circumstances.

Laser hair removal with the GentleLase Pro alexandrite laser Candela remains the global leader in The gold standard worldwide. The only drawback of this type of hair removal is that it cannot be used on tanned skin or on people with a naturally darker skin type.

That is why Candela has created Gentle Max ProPlus – a laser for hair removal, skin rejuvenation and regeneration, which can be used on both tanned skin and darker skin types (phototypes IV, V and VI).

Nd:YAG lasers They have been around for many years. However, they have a reputation for being painful and slow. They are many times more effective than diode lasers, but due to preconceptions about them and the much higher cost of the equipment, they are rarely used.

The Gentle Max ProPlus has changed all that. Whilst standard Nd:YAG lasers have a laser spot size of 3 to 5 mm and a maximum pulse duration of 10 ms, the Gentle Max ProPlus has a spot size of 18–22 mm and a pulse duration of 2 ms. This makes it significantly faster.

Nd:YAG lasers have the longest wavelength, which means that penetrate deepest into the skin. They do not act directly on the hair follicle, but cut off its blood supply. In this way, the hair is literally destroyed for good.

Only this type of laser makes it possible to exposure to the sun 72 hours after the treatment for hair removal.

С Nd:YAG laser We work with a lot of dark leathers – Phototypes IV, V and VI or if you have fair skin but have built up and retained a tan.

In this case, we can begin the treatment with an alexandrite laser, and once you have developed a tan, we can continue with an Nd:YAG laser.
