17,666 watts of peak power enables the GentleLASE to treat a variety of conditions unlike any other laser on
the market today. The GentleLASE is capable of delivering 755 nm fluences up to 100 J/cm2 in pulse durations
of 3 ms for unparalleled treatment efficacies in hair removal—especially thinner, finer hairs other hair removal
lasers simply cannot touch—and the treatment of pigmented and vascular lesions and wrinkles.
Patient Comfort
Subject your patients to fewer laser pulses and provide them faster treatment times using the GentleLASE’s
18 mm spot size, the largest spot found on any hair removal laser.
Profitable
Generate multiple revenue streams using the GentleLASE to remove unwanted hair, freckles, age spots, sun spots,
thick vascular malformations and fine lines and wrinkles.
Patented Epidermal Cooling
Candela's Dynamic Cooling Device represents an adjustable epidermal protection technology to maximize patient
safety and comfort. Integrated computer controls assure consistent, reproducible protection, regardless of who
is operating the laser for true treatment independence and ultimate patient safety.
