Personalized Laser Hair Removal

Ggeuthan Clinic's Recommended Laser Hair Removal

A hair removal plan that considers skin and hair characteristics helps achieve more satisfying results.

Sometimes, some individuals find it difficult to notice significant changes even after multiple laser hair removal sessions.

Since each individual's skin characteristics and hair conditions are unique, the treatment method must also be adjusted accordingly.

Laser hair removal works by selectively reacting to the melanin pigment in hair, generating heat, and thereby damaging the hair follicle.

However, skin types, hair types, and characteristics of different body areas vary. Therefore, if the same energy is used for treatment, the hair removal effect may be insufficient, and there is a possibility of unnecessary skin irritation.

*Ggeuthan Clinic's Meticulous Analysis

We meticulously examine the amount, thickness, color, and density of hair, as well as the patient's skin tone. Based on this, we apply the most appropriate energy settings for each body area and skin condition to perform the treatment.

-Pulse Duration

Generally, longer pulse durations tend to be applied to thicker hair.

Thick hairs contain a lot of melanin pigment, so irradiating energy with short pulses can increase the risk of epidermal damage due to rapid heat absorption. Using long pulses helps to deliver energy gently, protecting the skin surface while effectively concentrating heat on the hair follicle.

-Energy Density (j/cm²)

Thick and dark hairs have more melanin and a thicker structure, so a higher energy density may be necessary for effective hair removal. This is to ensure sufficient thermal energy is delivered to the hair follicle.

1. Thick and Dark Hair

These hairs are rich in melanin pigment and tend to absorb laser energy relatively well.

2. Fine, Light-Colored Hair

For fine and light-colored hair with less melanin, we consider appropriately adjusting the energy or using repeated treatments to ensure sufficient heat is delivered to the hair root.

3. Areas with Dense Hair

To prevent skin overheating, a method of dispersing energy during treatment can be applied.

4. Darker Skin Tones

Since melanin pigment is also present in the skin itself, laser output is carefully adjusted to prevent unnecessary side effects.

*Ggeuthan Clinic's Detailed Process

As hair removal sessions progress, hair condition, skin reaction, remaining hair density, and other factors change. Ggeuthan Clinic meticulously analyzes these changes and precisely adjusts laser output, wavelength selection, cooling time, and other parameters for each session.

For example, in the first session, we effectively target thick hair, and in the third session, we gently focus on remaining fine hair. If necessary, we adjust the treatment plan, such as changing the laser wavelength, to match the evolving situation in each session. This is not simply a repetitive hair removal procedure.

Since skin conditions change with each treatment, the treatment method must also be flexibly adjusted accordingly.

Some people wonder if there is a difference in treatment effectiveness between GentleMax and other devices.

When using hair removal devices with insufficient cooling function,

high energy and short pulse width settings can increase the risk of skin burns.

This is due to the following principle:

When the pulse width is short, the same energy is delivered intensely in a shorter time, which can significantly and instantaneously increase the skin's surface temperature.

If the device's cooling function is insufficient, it becomes difficult to effectively control such rapid heat increases.

Therefore, when applying high output, it is helpful to set the pulse width appropriately long,

to allow heat to be delivered gradually to the skin surface, which helps protect the skin.

For devices that ensure sufficient cooling function,

even thick and deep hairs can be effectively treated by considering high output and short pulse width.

The gas spray cooling system used in GentleMax devices, when compared to conventional air cooling methods,

is known to have superior cooling effects.

However, for output levels required for routine hair removal treatments, non-contact Apogee Cryo Cooling alone

can provide sufficient cooling effects.

Treatment Advantages

• 01. Hygienic as it irradiates in the air without direct contact.
• 02. Excellent cooling function helps reduce pain during treatment.
• 03. Output can be finely adjusted according to hair thickness and density.
• 04. You can expect your skin texture to feel smoother after hair removal.

Recommended Candidates

• 01. Those who feel discomfort due to relatively abundant hair.
• 02. Those who are greatly concerned about pain during hair removal.
• 03. Those who feel they spend a lot of time on repetitive hair management.
• 04. Those who wish to slow down hair growth through consistent treatments.

Treatment Process (Other Areas)

• 1. We provide personalized consultations as needed.
• 2. Hair removal treatment begins on the target area.
• 3. After the treatment is completed, we jointly check the condition of the treated area.

Precautions Before Treatment

ㆍIt is recommended to shave the planned treatment area in advance.

To maximize the effectiveness of laser treatment, it is recommended to trim the hair short before your visit.

For male treatments, it is recommended to shave the area immediately before your visit.

To ensure the treatment proceeds smoothly, we recommend comfortable clothing that allows easy exposure of the treatment area.

For example, sleeveless attire may be convenient for arm or underarm treatments.
