Laser Hair Removal
Laser Hair Removal
Tired of unending days of shaving, razor bumps and ingrown hairs? Ready to experience the stubble-free life of silky, smooth skin?
Laser Hair Removal treatments are the fastest, most effective means of permanent hair reduction. Licensed APRN Nurse Practitioners at Axxess Spa use the GentleMax Pro Laser Hair Removal system, the premier system for laser hair removal.
The GentleMax Pro is a state-of-the-art laser that uses a dual wavelength laser incorporating both the Alexandrite laser (best for lighter skin) and the YAG laser (best for darker skin) making it the most effective laser for all skin tones.
Axxess Spa Gentlemax Pro lasers are fully equipped with cooling cryogenic spray systems to cool your skin instantly so you can receive the fastest, most comfortable laser hair removal experience.
How It Works
Pulses of light are applied to the treatment area. The melanin in the hair follicle absorbs the light and causes the hair to fall out and your skin to become smooth.
What will it feel like?
Laser treatments typically feel like a small rubber band snapping against the skin. A cooling cryogen spray instantly cools your skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who performs the laser hair removal treatments?
Your care, satisfaction and safety is our top priority. All treatments are performed by Nurse Practitioners with extensive medical training and certified by Candela Medical to perform laser treatments.
