Laser Hair Removal with GentleMax Pro®

We know unwanted hair can be frustrating and tough to manage. Shaving, waxing, and other methods are painful and only give short-term results. At Totality Medispa, we use GentleMax Pro® for safe, effective, and long-lasting laser hair removal.

At our award-winning spa clinic, this advanced system combines Alexandrite and NDYag lasers. It’s the best technology available for removing stubborn hair on multiple areas of your body.

At Totality MediSpa, We believe that everyone deserves smooth, hair-free skin, no matter their skin tone. That’s why we use the GentleMax Pro, a state-of-the-art laser hair removal system designed to safely and effectively treat all skin types. Unlike older lasers that could only treat lighter skin tones, the GentleMax Pro combines two powerful technologies to deliver customized treatment for every patient.

For lighter skin tones, typically Fitzpatrick skin types I through III, the GentleMax Pro uses the Alexandrite laser. This is widely regarded as the gold standard for hair removal in fair to light-medium skin tones, providing faster, more effective results with fewer treatments needed.

For deeper skin tones, including Fitzpatrick skin types IV through VI, the GentleMax Pro uses the Nd:YAG laser. This wavelength is specifically designed to bypass pigment in the skin and target only the hair follicle. This makes it the safest and most effective option for individuals with darker skin tones, including Hispanic, African American, Middle Eastern, and Asian skin types.

With this dual-laser technology, Totality Medispa can confidently and safely treat all skin types with precision, comfort, and exceptional results.

Fast, Safe, Non-Invasive Procedure

Laser hair removal with GentleMax Pro® is a quick, safe, and non-surgical procedure. This advanced system features a dual-mode laser and a Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) that releases cool bursts of air, making the treatment comfortable and virtually pain-free. There’s no need for anesthesia or numbing creams.

With the largest spot size in the industry (2.4 cm), GentleMax Pro® covers large areas like the back and legs efficiently. We recommend shaving the treatment area before your session for the best results.

During the procedure, the laser targets and destroys hair follicles at the root, reducing hair growth while leaving your skin unharmed. Safe for all skin types, it delivers smooth, lasting results in multiple areas.

Lasting Results

After just one session, you’ll notice less hair, finer texture, and smoother skin. Laser hair removal not only enhances your appearance but also boosts your confidence by eliminating unwanted hair for the long term.

For optimal results, most people need at least six sessions, as hair grows in cycles. Depending on the treatment area and hair type, occasional touch-ups may be needed to maintain silky-smooth skin.

Zero Downtime

Laser hair removal is non-invasive, so you can get back to your routine immediately after treatment. Some mild redness or irritation may occur, but it typically fades within a few days.

To protect your skin, avoid direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen daily. Follow post-care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and the best results.

Who Can Get It

Laser hair removal is great for both men and women looking to permanently reduce unwanted hair. The ideal candidate must be in good health, have no cuts or damaged skin in the treatment area, and have realistic expectations. It's also an effective solution for stubborn ingrown hairs.

Common treatment areas include:

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Chest
  • Arms & Underarms
  • Legs
  • Back
  • Bikini Area

Some people may need extra sessions due to hormonal changes, darker skin tones, thicker hair, or inconsistent treatment schedules. For best results, avoid waxing or plucking before your session.

Maureen was great! Explained everything in detail and very patient!

Came to see my most favorite person, Dr. Nadel, and staff today! I started coming to see Dr. Nadel in 2022. She helped me immensely with my lips, which had been filled incorrectly for a long, long time! I come to her, only, because she is a wealth of knowledge and her bedside manner is spectacular! One of the nicest and most honest people I have ever met! Her staff is also incredible - so friendly and professional. Always go above and beyond to help. You won’t go wrong coming to see them. You will be thrilled! ❤️

I had an amazing experience at Totality Med Spa! I received Botox and filler from Sarah, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. She made me feel so comfortable, and the results look incredibly natural—exactly what I was hoping for. The entire team was so sweet and professional, and the atmosphere of the spa was warm and welcoming. Highly recommend Totality Med Spa for anyone looking for top-notch care and beautiful results!

Staff is so friendly, informative and efficient!
