I’m a girl who’s thirst for beauty knowledge is almost unquenchable. So as soon as someone tells me a particular treatment is the best at what it’s supposed to do, I have to know if it’s true. So when Skin House Beauty and Laser Clinic, an expert in the field with 13 years of experience, said that they have the best, most advanced, top of the line laser hair removal machine used in hospitals and medical clinics here and abroad in the form of Gentlemax, ready to go at their clinic, I just knew I had to try it.

As much as I hate to say it, the only real solution to unwanted hair is laser. And the reason I hate saying it is that it’s not something you just get casually. Truth be told, it is an expensive treatment that you have to do several sessions of before you achieve your desired result. For most people, it’s really considered an investment more than a necessity. And while there’s nothing wrong with body hair, if it is your preference to rid yourself of it, a powerful treatment is what you need!

I have personally dabbled in some hair removing laser treatments but I stopped because of one its biggest downsides: it takes time. The interval is usually one month and the effects were really not that significant. But Skin House claims that after only one session with the Gentlemax laser, I’ll see the difference.

How does it work?
According to Skin House Beauty and Laser Clinic, the Gentlemax Laser provides more long-term or nearly permanent results compared to other laser hair removal treatments, “Gentlemax Laser utilizes both Alexandrite and ND: YAG lasers, making it suitable for all skin types. It also helps remove ingrown hairs and improves chicken skin since you’ll no longer need to wax, pluck, or shave, which are common causes of skin discoloration.”

How it works is it delivers a pulse of laser light energy (a shot technique, hence the “flicking” pain) and releases a cooling spray before the laser pulse for the quick relief. This helps balance the heat, increasing patient comfort. So if you’ve tried Diode, this procedure eliminates the hot-cold extremities you might’ve felt on that one.

They recommend 6-8 sessions for first-timers but the number of sessions still depends on the hair growth so the consultation part of the visit is really essential.

How much is it?
The regular rate for Brazilian laser hair removal, it’s Php4,500/session. You can add EMLA (their numbing cream) for an additional Php1,000 if you have a lower tolerance for pain. Skin House Beauty and Laser Clinic does offer discounted rates for first time patients. One of which is their six-session bundle at only Php19,200, which makes it Php3,200/session. They also have a Beauty Bundle, a combination of either LHR for underarms or Laser Whitening for underarms for Php21,000.

The Process
The procedure is pretty straightforward. You change into a robe then you get groomed by one of their expert staff. For my first session, I opted to get EMLA because I hadn’t yet gauged what level of pain it was going to be so just to be sure, I went with the numbing cream. After the application, you have to wait at least 30 minutes for it to set in so I suggest bringing a book or preparing your playlist of YouTube or Netflix videos to watch. Your assigned staff will then remove the topical cream and zap away. It was more of a flicking pain than it was heat. But the pain only really lasts for a second then it goes away. It’ll take about 15-20 minutes to do everything and you’re done!

When you’ve completed all your sessions, you can get their booster once or twice a year or if you notice any hair growth.

Final Thoughts
After getting two sessions done, the difference is really apparent! The Gentlemax Hair Removal Laser might be a little up there in price but the results are better and quicker than your regular laser hair removal treatments. It’s almost as if you smooshed three sessions into one powerful one. So if you have the means available and nothing seems to be working for you, chances are, this will!
