What Is Laser Hair Removal with GentleYAG?

Laser Hair Removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses laser energy to permanently reduce hair growth by damaging hair follicles beneath the surface of the skin. GentleYAG is a type of Nd:YAG laser, known for its deep penetration and ability to safely treat a wider range of skin tones compared to traditional lasers.

During treatment, laser energy heats the pigment in hair follicles, destroying them while leaving surrounding tissue unharmed. Over time—and with multiple sessions—hair becomes finer, lighter, and significantly reduced. Because hair grows in cycles, several treatments are needed for optimal results.

At Vigour Aesthetics + Wellness, each session is customized to your skin type, hair type, and goals, ensuring safe treatments and beautifully smooth skin.

What Sets GentleYAG Apart?

While many laser devices exist, GentleYAG is widely recognized as one of the safest and most effective lasers available—especially for darker skin tones.

Here’s why it stands out:

  • Safe for All Skin Types: Nd:YAG technology penetrates more deeply than traditional lasers, reducing risk for pigmentation issues.
  • Dynamic Cooling System: The built-in cooling spray soothes and protects the skin instantly, making treatments significantly more comfortable.
  • Fast & Efficient: GentleYAG delivers quick pulses, allowing for faster treatments—even on larger areas.
  • Deep Penetration: Effectively targets deeper follicles, making it ideal for coarse, thick, or stubborn hair.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Achieves permanent hair reduction with fewer complications and greater comfort than many devices.

If you’ve previously been told you’re “not a candidate” for laser hair removal due to your skin tone or hair type, GentleYAG may be the perfect solution.
