Hello there,
Could you please help me with the Laser session settings for the machine
Make: Candella, model GentleMaxPro, 755nm
I had my first session(Alexandrite laser) for full legs, full thighs, feet, hands and full arms.
Coming next week I would have my first session for back and brazilian area.
For the hands, full arms, the “front legs” and “front thighs”, the LASER settings were as follows:
Fluence : 10 J/cm2
Duration: 3ms
Rate : 2Hz
Cooling part-
Pre : 40
Delay : 20
Post : OFF
For the “back legs” and “back thighs” the LASER settings were as follows:
Fluence : 12 J/cm2
Duration: 3ms
Rate : 2Hz
Cooling part-
Pre : 40
Delay : 20

Can someone please answer my queries:
-
Could you please let me know if these settings were correct.
I am a male of 35years. My ethnicity is Indian(South Asian country). I have fair complexion but had medium thick black long hair on Arms, legs. I am not sure about my skin: could be between Type 2 and Type 3. I rquest you to see the album link above.
On the chest, abdomen, armpit and brazilian area, I had thick long hair and I often shaved my brazilian area and armpits.
I also have this noticeable light tan on my Arms and hands.
2) Could you please let me know if I have to go for YAG laser for the next session and if so what should be
the ideal settings. YAG seems to be more painful but I am willing to take it.
-
For the back and the brazilian area what would be the ideal setting for the first session.
I have attached the pre-op photos for my back. Unfortunately I didn’t take the photos of pre-op for rest of my body. -
For the neck area what would be the ideal settings for first session.
5) Rest of the 5 sessions should be with YAG laser and if so please let me know the ideal settings for the remaining sessions.
- How can I maximize hair removal in the next 5 sessions and make the best use of the remaining 5 sessions.
I would like to know the best laser(ND/YAG) and the best settings, plus any tips from experienced people.
I am sorry for such a long post but I want to make sure the money I am spending is worth it.
Thank you.
