Permanent hair removal with the Alexandrite laser

Numerous medical-scientific studies have demonstrated that Certain alexandrite lasers are by far the most effective in permanently eliminating hair.
As an alexandrite hair removal device HUB uses GentleMax Pro by SyneronCandela which, in addition to being particularly effective and fast, is equipped with a skin cooling system that makes it exceptionally comfortable, minimizing the burning sensation that accompanies the use of other machines.
His laser beam, calibrated to a wavelength of 755 nanometers, it targets melanin only contained in the hairs and, catalyzing its energy exclusively on the bulbs, It is able to achieve selective destruction of unwanted hair and follicle.
The Candela alexandrite laser is intended exclusively for the medical sector.
Laser hair removal is not suitable for the following hair growth conditions:
For white, very blonde and red hair as there is not enough melanin to absorb the laser energy and reach the root to destroy it.
When there is a hormonal disorder, we notice increased hair growth, especially on the face, thighs, belly, etc.
In these cases, we cannot speak of progressive elimination but rather of limitation of hair growth.
When this happens, we recommend regular monitoring by an endocrinologist to address the endocrine problem.
