LASER HAIR REMOVAL -- FREEHOLD, NJ -- 732-866-4000
Thanks to the GentleYAG's advanced technology, we now have the ability to offer laser hair removal to everyone. Whether you are fair skinned, dark skinned or well tanned, our Candela GentleYAG laser can eliminate the need for shaving, plucking or waxing.
Traditional hair removal techniques, such as shaving, plucking, waxing and depilatory creams provide only temporary relief. Until now, the only recognized way to remove hair permanently has been by electrolysis - which can be tedious, time-consuming and uncomfortable.
Our Candela GentleYAG system can uniquely remove unwanted body hair on all skin types without damaging the delicate pores and structures of the skin.
The GentleYAG System, a revolutionary long-pulse high-energy ND:YAG laser, emits a gentle beam of light that passes through the skin to the hair follicle where it is absorbed. The laser energy is transformed into heat, which destroys the hair follicle leaving the surrounding skin unaffected.
The skin is further protected during treatment by a Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™) where cryogen is sprayed onto the skin cooling the upper layers and providing patients with increased comfort. GentleYAG selectivity helps to protect the skin, while effectively treating the unwanted hair.

HOW DOES LASER TREATMENT WORK?
The laser creates a beam of high-intensity light that penetrates deep into the skin tissue where it delivers a controlled amount of targeted therapeutic heat. Candela's Patented Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™) technology protects the upper layers of your skin with a cooling burst of cryogen. Together, the long-pulse laser and DCD cooling offer optimal treatment with minimal side effects.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING TREATMENT?
DOES IT HURT?
Some patients may feel a slight discomfort with the laser pulse, sometimes described as a snapping of a rubber band on the skin. Theis discomfort resolves in several seconds and is minimized by Candela's DCD cooling. For some patients, a topical anesthetic may be used prior to treatment.
HOW MANY TREATMENT SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
The number of sessions depends on the treatment you require and the condition of your skin. For hair removal, multiple treatments are required, as the process is only effective when the hair follicle is in its active growth phase. Other conditions may clear in as few as one treatment, but many factors impact the efficacy of the individual laser treatments, including the severity of the condition being treated.
HOW DO I PREPARE FOR THE TREATMENT?
Patients scheduled for hair removal should avoid plucking, electrolysis or hair waxing for 6 weeks prior to treatment. If you have had a history of perioral herpes and are scheduled for facial hair treatment, prophylactic antiviral therapy may be prescribed. Also, any hair should be completely removed by shaving, and your skin should be thoroughly cleaned and dried, removing any makeup, creams, oils, or topical anesthetics on its surface before laser treatment.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER TREATMENT?
A cool compress or gel pack may be applied for comfort following your treatment. Patients should avoid sun exposure before and after treatment, by applying sunblock (SPF 30 or above) prior to going outdoors.
ARE THERE SIDE EFFECTS?
Your risks are minimal. Side effects may include purpura (a laser bruise), redness, blistering, hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, and swelling in the treated area- these usually do not last for more than a few days. Permanent side effects, such as hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation or scarring, are rare.
WHAT PRECAUTIONS SHOULD I TAKE AFTER TREATMENT?
After laser treatment, prevent sun exposure by applying sunblock (SPF 30 or higher). In the first few days after treatment, don't scrub or rinse the treated areas with abrasive skin cleaners.
ARE THESE TREATMENTS COVERED BY INSURANCE?
Most insurance companies do not offer reimbursement for cosmetic procedures. Some carriers will, however, cover the treatment of disfiguring birthmarks such as hemangiomas. Consult your insurance carrier for conclusive information.
