Laser Hair Removal in Maidenhead
Looking for laser hair removal in Maidenhead? At Stockley Clinic, we use the medical-grade Candela GentleMax Pro Plus to deliver safe, effective long-term hair reduction for all skin tones. Its dual-wavelength technology combines Alexandrite 755nm and Nd:YAG 1064nm, allowing us to tailor every treatment to your skin tone, hair type and treatment area.
How Candela GentleMax Pro Plus Laser Hair Removal Works
The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus combines dual-wavelength laser technology with fast pulse durations to target hair follicles and achieve long-term hair reduction.
By selecting the appropriate wavelength, spot size and treatment settings for your skin tone and hair type, each treatment can be individually tailored for safe and effective results.
Dual-wavelength targeting
755nm Alexandrite and 1064nm Nd:YAG laser selection targets hair follicle melanin across all skin types, delivering precise thermal energy directly to the hair root.
Dynamic Cooling Comfort
Integrated Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) sprays cryogen milliseconds before and after each pulse for continuous skin protection and maximum treatment comfort.
Targeted Hair Follicle Treatment Deactivation
Controlled laser energy targets the hair follicle during the active growth phase, helping to disrupt its ability to produce hair and achieve long-term hair reduction over a course of treatments.
Why technology and operator matter
Effective laser hair removal isn't just about the machine. Treatment settings need to be carefully selected for your skin tone, hair type and treatment area. At Stockley Clinic, we combine the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus with individually tailored treatment parameters to deliver safe, effective and comfortable laser hair removal.
Every new laser client begins with a consultation and patch test so we can assess your skin and hair before starting treatment.

Laser Hair Removal for All Skin Tones
Laser hair removal isn't one-size-fits-all. At Stockley Clinic, we treat a wide range of skin tones, including Asian, brown and darker skin, using the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus. Its dual-wavelength technology combines 755nm Alexandrite and 1064nm Nd:YAG, allowing us to select appropriate settings according to your individual skin tone, hair type and treatment area.
For darker, melanin-rich skin tones, the 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength allows the laser to target the hair follicle while reducing absorption by melanin in the surrounding skin. Every new laser client has a consultation and patch test before treatment so we can assess suitability and select appropriate settings for their skin.

Treatment Process Steps
Every laser hair removal journey at Stockley Clinic begins with a consultation and patch test. From there, your treatment plan and settings are tailored to your skin, hair and treatment goals.
We assess your skin tone, hair type, medical history and treatment goals before carrying out a patch test. This allows us to confirm suitability and select appropriate settings before your first treatment.
Your Candela GentleMax Pro Plus settings are selected according to your skin tone, hair type and treatment area, and adjusted throughout your course where appropriate.
Laser works by targeting hair during its active growth phase, which is why a course of treatments is usually recommended. Your therapist will advise on the appropriate treatment intervals for your area.
Results vary from person to person. Once your initial course is complete, occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended depending on your hair growth, treatment area and individual response.

Laser Hair Removal Results:
What to Expect
Laser hair removal is a gradual process. Because the laser targets hair during its active growth phase, results develop across a course of treatments rather than after a single session. Individual results vary depending on factors such as hair type, skin tone, treatment area, hormones and consistency with your treatment plan.
Typical progression
After your treatment
Initial Shedding Phase
You may notice mild redness or warmth around the treated follicles shortly after your session. This usually settles, and you'll be given appropriate aftercare advice before leaving the clinic.
Between sessions
Slower & Finer Regrowth
Treated hairs can begin to shed over the following days and weeks. Hair growth may gradually appear finer, slower and less dense as you progress through your course.
During your course
Progressive Reduction
Each session targets hairs in an active growth phase. Staying consistent with your recommended treatment schedule helps us target different growth cycles throughout your course.
After your course
Long-Term Smoothness
Many clients experience a significant long-term reduction in unwanted hair. Results vary, and occasional maintenance treatments may be recommended depending on your individual hair growth and hormonal factors.
