Candela GentleMax Pro · skin types I–VI
Laser hair removal in Dubai at Laser & More Clinic uses the Candela GentleMax Pro, a dual-wavelength laser (755nm Alexandrite and 1064nm Nd:YAG) that treats skin types I–VI. Most clients see long-term hair reduction after 6–8 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart. Our DHA-licensed clinic is in Al Rashidiya, close to Mirdif and Deira.
Laser hair removal works by sending a pulse of light into the hair follicle. Pigment in the hair absorbs the light and turns it into heat, which damages the follicle so it grows back slower, finer and sparser. Only hairs in the active growth (anagen) phase respond, which is why a course of sessions is needed.
Laser & More Clinic is a DHA-licensed aesthetic clinic in Al Rashidiya, Dubai, using the Candela GentleMax Pro laser. Settings are matched to your skin and hair after a consultation and skin assessment.
Melanin in the hair absorbs 755nm or 1064nm light.
Its ability to regrow thick hair is reduced.
Hairs fall out over one to three weeks.
Tailored plans
Laser hair removal works for both women and men, but hair growth patterns differ, so plans do too. Your specialist adjusts the wavelength, energy and session spacing to your hair type, skin tone, hormones and the areas you want treated.
Treatments take place in a private room with female specialists. Hormone-related hair, including PCOS-linked growth, may need extra sessions and occasional top-ups.
Coarse, deep-rooted hair responds well to the 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength, and fewer razor bumps is a common benefit. Male clients are treated by Abdullah, our male laser specialist, and female specialists are also available for the beard and neck.
Almost any area with unwanted dark hair can be treated with laser, from the upper lip down to the toes. You can combine several areas in one visit, or choose a full-body plan that covers everything in a single course of sessions.

For long-term results, yes. Shaving and waxing only remove hair above or at the root, so it returns within days or weeks. Laser treats the follicle itself, giving up to 90% hair reduction after a full course (results vary), with fewer ingrown hairs along the way.
| Factor | Laser hair removal | Waxing | Shaving |
|---|---|---|---|
| How long results last | Long-term reduction; occasional top-ups | 3–6 weeks | 1–3 days |
| Ingrown hairs | Greatly reduced | Common | Common |
| Skin irritation | Mild redness for a few hours | Redness, bumps, possible pigmentation | Razor burn and stubble rash |
| Comfort | Quick snap, eased by cryogen cooling | Painful on sensitive areas | No pain, but needed often |
| Long-term cost | Higher upfront, little ongoing cost | Repeat salon visits for life | Ongoing razors and creams |
Yes, when the right wavelength is used. The GentleMax Pro's 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength passes by the pigment in the skin's surface and targets the follicle deeper down, so it is suitable for olive, brown and dark skin (Fitzpatrick IV–VI) when set by a trained specialist.
We assess every new client's skin and hair at a consultation, then adjust energy and cooling from session to session to lower the risk of burns or pigment change.
How the GentleMax Pro worksMost clients need 6–8 laser hair removal sessions, spaced 3–4 weeks apart. Hair grows in cycles and the laser only affects follicles in the active growth phase, so each session treats a new batch. Your specialist confirms your number at consultation.
Coarse hair on the legs and underarms often clears fastest; facial and hormone-driven hair can take longer. Many clients book one or two top-ups a year.
Hairs shed; regrowth is slower and patchier.
Noticeably fewer, finer hairs.
Long-term reduction; top-ups as needed. Results vary.
Before & after
Good preparation makes laser safer and more effective. Shave the area the day before, avoid waxing and tanning for four weeks, and arrive with clean skin. Afterwards, keep treated skin cool, skip heat, exercise and sun for 48 hours, and apply SPF 50 every day.
