Ditch The Razor
At Vita Beauty Bar, we offer advanced laser hair removal treatments using the GentleMax Pro, a state-of-the-art system suitable for all skin and hair types. This cutting-edge technology provides quick, effective treatments that target hair follicles, reducing unwanted hair with minimal discomfort.
The GentleMax Pro works by emitting a precise light wavelength that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, effectively disabling the hair follicle’s ability to regrow. With a series of 8 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, most clients experience a reduction of 80-90% in hair growth, leading to smoother, hair-free skin.
This non-invasive procedure is safe, fast, and comfortable, with many clients noticing reduced shaving frequency and smoother skin after just one session. Additionally, the GentleMax Pro helps to eliminate ingrown hairs and irritation, leaving the skin feeling soft and refreshed.
Say goodbye to shaving and waxing, and enjoy long-lasting, silky-smooth results with GentleMax Pro laser hair removal.
Compared to other companies, we offer a Gold Standard TRUE laser machine, flexible pricing options, loyalty rewards, and a lifetime loyalty price after completing a treatment package.

Comparing Laser Devices
Our GentleMax Pro uses focused laser technology (Alexandrite and YAG lasers) for precise and faster results, making it suitable for all skin and hair types. It’s more effective in fewer sessions, offering deeper penetration and more consistent hair reduction with minimal discomfort.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), on the other hand, uses broad-spectrum light and requires a gel during treatments to target hair pigment, making it effective for lighter skin and hair types but less precise and generally requires more treatments for optimal results. It may also be less effective on darker skin tones.
How Many Treatments Will You Need?
At our clinic, we believe in transparency, which is why we recommend a sequence of 8 treatments for optimal results. This approach ensures we target hair in all growth phases, providing the best possible outcome for lasting hair reduction. After completing the full series, annual maintenance may be required to address any minor hair growth due to natural regeneration and hormonal fluctuations. Some clients may need maintenance sooner, while others can go longer between sessions.
Your first treatment will be rebooked in 4-6 weeks and subsequent treatments will become 1-2 weeks longer between, depending on your unique response.
What Hair Types Laser Can Treat
Laser hair removal works best when there is contrast between the hair and skin, which allows the laser to effectively target the hair follicle. Unfortunately, lasers cannot effectively treat red, very blonde, or white/grey hair as they lack sufficient pigment for the laser to target. If you're unsure about your hair type, we offer complimentary test patches to assess the treatment's effectiveness on your hair.
It's important to note that light brown and even dark blonde hair can typically be treated successfully. Sometimes, hair may appear lighter due to light reflection, but this doesn't mean it can't be treated. Additionally, there's a common misunderstanding between light-colored hair and fine-textured hair. Fine hair, even if light in color, may still respond well to laser treatment. An in-person consultation is the best way to assess your hair and skin type and determine the most effective treatment plan for you.
Is Laser Hair Removal Painful?
Most people describe the sensation of laser hair removal as feeling like a quick elastic band snap against the skin. However, the GentleMax Pro system features a built-in cooling mechanism that uses cryogen gas, making the treatment not only safe and effective, but also comfortable. This cooling technology helps to minimize any discomfort, ensuring a smoother and more pleasant experience throughout the session.
Preparing For Your Laser Treatment
- For 4 weeks: no tweezing, waxing/epilating/ using nair-like products.
- For 2 weeks: No Citrus essential oils, st. johns wort, Avoid sun/use intentionally mineral based sunscreen to avoid a sun tan, no self tanner.
- 5 days prior: no retinols/exfoliants.
- Day of: no lotion/make up. Clean shave the area.
After Your Treatment
There is no downtime with laser hair removal, and most clients are able to return to work the same day. You may feel a mild sunburn-like sensation, and it's normal to experience temporary reddening or edema (slight swelling), which can look like hives or welts around the hair follicles. This typically resolves within a few hours post-treatment.
To ensure optimal results and skin health, we recommend avoiding heat, friction, exfoliation, or hot showers for 24 hours after your session. Additionally, it's important to use sunscreen daily for at least 2 weeks post-treatment to protect your skin from UV damage. You can apply makeup immediately after the treatment, as there is no restriction on that.
Health Conditions & Laser Treatments
Laser hair removal is generally safe for most people, but certain conditions and medications may require caution. Pregnancy is a contraindication, though breastfeeding is fine. If you're taking photosensitizing medications like Accutane, you must wait at least 6 months before undergoing laser treatment. Similarly, if you've been on tetracyclines (antibiotics), it's recommended to wait 10 days before your session.
Clients with uncontrolled diabetes should refrain from laser treatments, and anyone with diabetes should consult their physician prior to booking. We also cannot treat individuals with uncontrolled seizures.
For any other health concerns or conditions, we strongly advise consulting with your healthcare professional before proceeding with laser hair removal to ensure the treatment is safe and suitable for you. Your health and safety are our top priority!
If you're taking antibiotics, we recommend waiting 10 days after completing your course before scheduling laser hair removal. If you've used Accutane in the past, it's advised to wait at least 1 year before undergoing laser treatment. Additionally, any medications that are photosensitizing (increasing sensitivity to light) are not suitable for laser treatments. For your safety, always check with your pharmacist or healthcare provider to ensure you're following the safest practices before booking your session.
How to optimize your laser results
To get the best results from your laser hair removal treatments, it's important to follow the schedule recommended by your technician. Consistent appointments are key—delaying treatments for extended periods may require more sessions in the long run to achieve your desired outcome.
A good rule of thumb: If you're finding that you need to shave every 1-2 weeks, it's likely time for your next treatment. Staying on track with your sessions ensures quicker, more effective results!

Planning Your Laser Around Sun Exposure
When planning your laser hair removal around sun exposure and self-tanner, it's important to consider the timing for optimal results.
Post-treatment sun exposure is safe after about 3-5 days, but to ensure the best outcome, it's recommended to laser 7-10 days before a beach vacation or significant sun exposure. This allows the dead hair in the follicle to slough out properly and reduces the risk of irritation.
To protect your skin, avoid sun exposure and use intentionally mineral-based sunscreen to prevent tanning for 2-3 weeks before your appointment. Additionally, avoid using self-tanner before your treatment, as it can create safety risks.
We can treat tanned skin, just not recently tanned skin. If the sun incident resulting in a tan is more than 2 weeks ago, we can safely laser. If the area being treated has been covered by clothing or a mineral based sunsblock prevented a tan, we can safely laser.
