Candela Announces GentleMax Pro Integration into Laser Hair Removal System

Ideal Image has integrated Candela’s latest laser technology—the GentleMax Pro Plus system with the new GLX Delivery System—into select centers across the U.S., according to a Candela news release.

The GentleMax Pro Plus system is equipped with 755 nm and 1064 nm dual-wavelength technology, enabling treatment of all Fitzpatrick Skin Types and a range of hair textures. The system’s 2 ms pulse duration and large spot sizes are designed to improve clearance of residual fine hairs and allow for deeper follicle targeting, supporting broader clinical indications like pigmented lesions, vascular conditions, and skin rejuvenation.

The newly introduced GLX Delivery System aims to increase treatment speed and workflow efficiency, the manufacturer said. Candela reported up to an 81% reduction in time between pulses and a 21% overall decrease in treatment duration.

The Candela release noted that the update reflects broader industry trends toward scalable, data-driven laser systems that prioritize speed, safety, and efficacy across diverse patient populations.
