Hair removal for even the most sensitive skin
Laser hair removal treatment offers a quick and permanent solution to patients who would like to remove unwanted body hair. Clinique K uses the GentleMax Pro Series laser by Candela to remove hair on any part of the body, including sensitive areas such as the face, neck, bikini area, back, and more.
Clinique K uses the GentleMax Pro®, which is the gold standard in Laser Hair Removal. Lasers have been used for decades, but this combined technology has superior clinical results for hair removal.
The right candidate for laser hair removal
Any individual who desires permanent hair removal is the ideal candidate for laser hair removal. In the past, laser hair removal machines required a patient to have a lighter skin tone and darker hair follicles, but this is no longer the case. Laser hair removal with Dr. Karl Schwarz is suitable for everyone because it combines two types of lasers into one, targeting both light and dark skin, with low risk of discoloration or scarring. All skin types I-VI can be treated.
Laser hair removal is a fantastic alternative to shaving, waxing, electrolysis, and plucking. It is ideal for men and women of all skin colours. However, it is ineffective on clients with blonde, white and grey hair because it lacks the melanin needed for the laser to target the follicle.
What to expect during the treatment:
Made by leaders in laser technology, the GentleMaxPro offers both Alexandrite and Nd:Yag laser technologies to treat various hair textures and tones. It works by delivering controlled, intense energy to the hair follicle without harming the nearby skin. Once the hair follicle is destroyed, no further hair growth can occur.
It also features a patented Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™) technology to ensure the treatment is as comfortable and pain-free as possible. You will feel a tingling or warm pinch sensation.
The results can be delivered in fewer visits than lasers of the past, but generally, 4-6 treatments lead to permanent hair loss, depending on the area treated.
What to expect after the treatment:
You may experience redness or irritation in the hours following a laser treatment, but it will not interfere with an immediate return to normal activities. However, to protect sensitive skin, it is vital to stay out of the sun for one to two weeks following treatment.
In the weeks that follow, patients will notice that hair from the treated area easily falls out. This is part of the normal process.
Lasers can work miracles
beyond hair removal
