Review of hair removal with GentleMax Pro Plus.

Why does hair removal differ from hospital to hospital?


Hello,

This is Director Wi Young-jin.

Although I receive many consultations throughout the year,

the most frequently asked procedure among them

is male facial hair laser hair removal.

In particular, the ratio of men among those who come for consultations in Hongdae

is increasing steadily.

I am also part of the medical staff, but

having personally experienced hair removal,


I understand well how stressful the

itchiness, shaving irritation, and jawline troubles that men experience can be.









If you look for reviews on the GentleMax Pro Plus,

you will understand,

as a medical professional with actual experience,

I can assure you of its effectiveness.

So during consultations, I often provide

realistic explanations based on my actual experience.

The two most frequently asked questions in the clinic are

as follows.





“Is male facial hair laser hair removal really permanent?”

“Different hospitals use different machines, does that affect the results significantly?”





The answer is clear.

Even the same hair removal procedure

yields different results depending on the hospital.

I will explain why this is the case and

what criteria you should consider one by one.










The Principle and Effect of Laser Hair Removal – Q&A





Q. How does laser hair removal eliminate hair?

A. The laser transmits heat to the melanin pigment in the hair roots,

destroying the hair follicles and preventing new hair from growing.

As a result, you can expect a permanent hair removal effect.

I also felt that when I received hair removal,

if the equipment output is sufficient,

I could feel the effects much more quickly.









Q. Is it over with just one treatment?

A. No.

All hair has a growth cycle, so

not all hair can be removed at once.

Typically, you need to have around 5 to 8 treatments with intervals of 4 to 6 weeks

to confirm that your hair gradually becomes thinner and its growth slows down.





Reasons Why Hair Removal Results Differ by Hospital






1) Differences in Equipment Performance

Ultimately, laser hair removal

depends significantly on the type of equipment used.

Especially for thick hair like men's facial hair,

sufficient output is necessary.









2) Skill Level of the Technician

Even good equipment

is rendered less effective if not set up correctly.

💎Skin tone

💎Hair thickness

💎Density

💎Thermal response

💎Sensitivity to stimulation

Considering these factors,

the output, wavelength, spot size, etc.

must be adjustable.

Since male facial hair is difficult to remove,

it is crucial to have experienced medical staff performing the procedure.









3) Stability of the Cooling System

High-output hair removal can cause

the skin to heat up, so

the cooling system must be stable

to avoid burns while using strong output.

If the cooling is inadequate,

💎Increased pain

💎Output restriction

💎Increased troubles

can occur.









4) Personalized Cycle and Intensity Adjustment

Male facial hair varies significantly from person to person.

💎Hair density

💎Hair thickness

💎Skin thickness

💎Sensitivity to stimulation

Since all these conditions are different,

it's not as simple as "come at intervals of a few weeks" but

it's important to set cycles and intensities tailored to individual changes.

I also felt that when I received hair removal treatments at the right intervals,

the noticeable effects came much faster.

I realized how important this step is.





Why did I choose the GentleMax Pro Plus? – Q&A






Q. What’s special about the GentleMax Pro Plus?

A. For male facial hair removal,

the difference in equipment directly impacts the results.

If you look for hair removal clinics in Hongdae,

you will find various types of equipment,

but among the ones I have directly experienced and used as a technician,

I trust the GentleMax Pro Plus the most.

This machine is a premium hair removal laser from the American company Cynosure

💎Uses two wavelengths simultaneously

💎Powerful effects on thick male hair

💎Safe for sensitive skin

💎Dual cooling system (minimizes pain)

With such advantages,

it is highly advantageous for deep and thick hairs like male facial hair.









Q. What is the satisfaction level like?

A. Based on my own experience and customer reactions,

A decrease in hair growth speed → thinning of hair → improvement in post-shaving troubles

follows this flow quickly.

If you look at reviews for the GentleMax Pro Plus,

especially those who were troubled by thick, dark beards,

they express high satisfaction.









Q. How is the pain level?

A. Despite being high-output hair removal,

thanks to the dual cooling system, the pain is greatly reduced.

From my personal experience with the GentleMax Pro Plus,

I can say "it’s not as bad as I thought"

and many customers have shown similar reactions.









Male laser hair removal is

not just a procedure to remove hair,

but requires professional management

that is tailored to my skin and lifestyle.

Summarizing the process I have personally experienced with facial hair removal and

the numerous cases I've observed in the clinic,

💎Good equipment

💎Skilled technicians

💎Stable cooling system

💎Personalized settings

Choosing a place that meets these four criteria

is the fastest and safest way

to achieve hair removal results.

If you are considering hair removal in Hongdae,

I recommend choosing carefully based on these criteria.

Thank you for reading.
