Meet the Technology: Why We Use the GentleYAG Pro by Candela for Laser Hair Removal

Fast, Safe, and Effective for All Skin Tones

When it comes to laser hair removal, technology matters. Not all lasers are created equal, and choosing the right one makes a big difference in your comfort, safety, and results—especially if you have darker or more sensitive skin.

At our Temecula laser clinic, we use the GentleYAG® Pro by Candela—a leading medical-grade laser system trusted worldwide for its precision and versatility. Here’s why this choice matters for your skin, your time, and your long-term results.


What Is the GentleYAG Pro?

The GentleYAG Pro is part of Candela’s GentleMax Pro system, which has the wavelengths of laser energy to target hair follicles with precision and minimal discomfort. The YAG laser specifically uses a 1064 nm wavelength, making it safe and effective for all skin types, including deeper skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV–VI).


Why We Chose This Laser: Key Benefits

1. Safe for All Skin Tones

Many lasers struggle with darker skin tones due to the higher melanin content. The GentleYAG Pro uses a longer wavelength that bypasses surface pigmentation, making it:

  • Safer for medium to deep skin tones
  • Less risk of burns, hyperpigmentation, or scarring
  • FDA-cleared for use on all Fitzpatrick skin types

No matter your complexion, you can get smooth results without compromise.


2. Fast and Comfortable Treatments

The GentleYAG Pro features a Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD), which sprays a quick burst of cooling cryogen before each laser pulse. This minimizes discomfort and protects the skin’s surface.

  • Most clients describe it as a light snap or quick heat sensation.
  • Sessions are quick—even large areas like the back or legs are done in 30–45 minutes.

3. Proven Results for Coarse, Stubborn Hair

The GentleYAG Pro penetrates deeper than many other lasers, making it ideal for:

  • Thick or coarse hair (like beards, bikini lines, or chest)
  • Areas prone to ingrown hairs or razor bumps
  • Clients who’ve tried other hair removal methods without lasting results

4. Medical-Grade Precision

Candela’s GentleYAG Pro is clinically tested, FDA-approved, and used in top dermatology and medical spas around the world. Its consistency and reliability allow our team to deliver:

  • Personalized settings for each client
  • Fewer side effects
  • Better long-term hair reduction in fewer sessions

Paired With Expert Care

Laser safety doesn’t just depend on the equipment—it depends on who’s using it. Our licensed providers are trained specifically on the GentleYAG Pro and tailor each treatment to your skin type, hair texture, and goals.
