Laser Hair Removal
At Milani Medspa, we use the industry-leading Candela GentleMax Pro® laser system for safe, effective, and long-lasting laser hair removal on all skin types. This powerful dual-wavelength technology offers precision, comfort, and efficiency—so you can enjoy smooth skin without the hassle.
What Is Candela GentleMax Pro®?
The GentleMax Pro® is a state-of-the-art laser system that combines two gold-standard wavelengths—the Alexandrite (755 nm) for lighter skin tones and the YAG (1064 nm) for darker skin tones. This makes it one of the most versatile and effective hair removal technologies to safely treat all Fitzpatrick skin types available today. Works best on hairs that are dark brown to black hair and medium brown hair and less effective on light brown or dark blonde – not ideal for blonde, red, & grey hair.
The system uses pulsed laser energy to safely target and destroy hair follicles at the root, while its dynamic cooling device (DCD) protects the skin, ensuring a treatment that’s both safe and comfortable.

GentleMax Pro® is ideal for laser hair removal on virtually any area of the body, including:
- Face (upper lip, chin, cheeks)
- Underarms
- Arms and legs
- Bikini line and Brazilian
- Back and chest
- Neck and shoulders
- Upper, Lower, or Full Body
