One of the most advanced laser hair removal technology that the board certified dermatologists at FineTouch Dermatology clinic recommend using is the GentleYAG laser. This is a laser procedure in which a beam of light at a specific wavelength is applied to the skin and is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle. Its revolutionary long-pulse high energy laser emits a gentle beam of light that harmlessly passes through the skin where it is absorbed by the target. The laser energy is transformed into heat, leaving the surrounding skin unaffected. The skin is further protected during treatment by a Dynamic Cooling Device where cryogen is sprayed onto the skin, cooling the upper layers and providing patients with increased comfort. The long wavelength of the Gentle Yag laser reaches deeper into the skin, making it ideal for treating leg veins. The laser contracts the leg veins, with lesser chance of bruising usually associated with other leg vein treatments. GentleYAG can also be used for laser hair removal to remove unwanted hair on any area of the skin, including the face, neck, chest, back, bikini area, underarms, arms and legs. GentleYAG is also a leading hair removal laser because it uses the latest technology in laser hair removal to rapidly treat large areas without the limitations of older technologies. The GentleYag system's longer wavelength allows it to be used safely and effectively on patients with light or dark skin as well as tanned skin. Because the GentleYAG laser treats several hair follicles at a time, the procedure can be used to treat large surface areas fairly quickly and thus can be compared to the speed of shaving, with the additional benefit of the lasting result of electrolysis.
Laser hair removal is with GentleYAG is effective on almost any area of the body with unwanted hair, and the lasting results prove to be advantageous. In addition, the GentleYAG gentle beam of light helps to protect the skin, while effectively treating the unwanted hair, vascular lesions or wrinkles. It is the only laser of its kind patented and FDA cleared for leg vein removal and laser hair removal.
