Laser Hair Removal for Men
Laser hair removal is a highly effective and long-term solution for men who want smooth, low-maintenance skin.
Most Commonly Treated Areas for Men:
- Beard Sculpting: Define the cheek and neck lines with precision. Laser beard shaping eliminates the need for constant shaving or threading while helping prevent razor bumps and irritation.
- Beard Folliculitis Treatment: Beard folliculitis is a common condition where hair follicles become inflamed, often due to shaving. It causes red, painful bumps that resemble acne. Laser hair removal targets the hair at the root, significantly reducing hair growth and preventing future flare-ups.
- Chest,Back, & Shoulders: Ideal for men looking for a smoother look or athletes who prefer hair-free skin.
- Men’s Bikini Area: Yes, we offer laser for the male bikini zone — whether for comfort, hygiene, or aesthetics, we customize the treatment to your needs.

Because you deserve the best!
At Viva Laser Aesthetics, we use the most advanced, and safest technology to give you the best laser hair removal and skin treatments available
Candela Gentle Max Pro Plus® has both Alexandrite (755 nm) and Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm) These wavelengths target melanin, the pigment responsible for hair color in the hair follicles.
The Nd:YAG laser (1064nm) on the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus® is designed to safely and effectively treat all skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI), including darker skin tones. It is particularly effective for:
Skin Types IV-VI (Medium to Dark Skin Tones):
The Nd:YAG (1064 nm) wavelength penetrates deeper into the skin while bypassing the melanin in the epidermis, reducing the risk of hyperpigmentation or burns.
Coarse and Deep Hair Removal:
Works well on thick, dark hair, even in deeper follicles.
Vascular Lesions & Skin Rejuvenation:
Effective for treating spider veins, redness, and collagen stimulation.
The Alexandrite (755nm) wavelength, also available on the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus®, is better suited for lighter skin tones (I-III) and finer hair.
Alexandrite laser (755nm) vs Nd:YAG laser (1064nm)
The number of laser hair removal sessions needed with the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus® varies depending on factors like skin type, hair color, hair thickness, and treatment area. However, on average, most patients require:
- 8 to 12 sessions for optimal results for full treatment.
- 4 to 6 sessions if you are looking touch ups if you have been treated previously.
- Treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart.
- Maintenance sessions 1–2 times per year, depending on hair regrowth.
For individuals with hormonal imbalances or conditions like PCOS, additional sessions may be required. Since this machine is highly effective with dual-wavelength technology ( Alexandrite (755nm) + Nd:YAG (1064nm), it provides excellent results for all skin types (Fitzpatrick I–VI).
At Viva Laser Aesthetics , we customize your treatment plan to ensure the best and longest-lasting results!

How Cryogen Dynamic Cooling™ (CDC) Works:
The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus® uses a Cryogen Dynamic Cooling™ (CDC) system, which is an advanced cooling technology designed to enhance patient comfort and safety during laser hair removal and other treatments.
Pre-Cools the Skin
Before each laser pulse, a precise burst of cryogen spray is released onto the skin. This cools the outer layers, reducing heat sensation and minimizing discomfort.
Protects the Skin
The cooling spray helps protect the epidermis (top layer of skin) from excessive heat, preventing burns and irritation.
Enhances Comfort
By reducing the heat sensation, CDC makes laser treatments much more tolerable, even for sensitive areas.
Optimizes Treatment Results
Since the skin stays cool, higher laser energy levels can be used safely, leading to more effective and efficient treatments with fewer sessions needed.
This built-in cooling system eliminates the need for external cooling gels or devices, making the GentleMax Pro Plus® one of the most comfortable and advanced laser systems available!
