The ND-YAG laser
The Candela ND-YAG laser works by emitting a high-energy beam of light at a specific wavelength, typically in the range of 1064 nanometers. This wavelength penetrates deeper into the skin, selectively targeting dark pigments such as melanin found in unwanted hair or pigmented lesions. When the laser light is absorbed by these pigments, it converts into heat, selectively destroying the target cells without damaging the surrounding tissues. The Candela ND-YAG laser is often used for treatments such as hair removal, vascular lesion treatment, pigmented lesion treatment, tattoo removal, and other medical and aesthetic applications. It’s important to note that the use of the Candela ND-YAG laser should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure safe and effective results.

Caution and Information
Before undergoing laser treatment, make sure to educate yourself about the type of laser being used. There are many different lasers, and they are not all the same. Some may not be suitable for all hair and/or skin colors. Others may be ineffective in the long term or even pose risks to your health.
Caution and obtaining appropriate information are paramount!

How Does the Nd-YAG Laser Work?
This laser is extremely powerful and highly selective. Its light beam targets and absorbs melanin, the pigment in the hair. It converts into heat and destroys the hair follicle at its source.
This beam is extremely precise and does not penetrate beyond the dermis, thereby preserving the skin and surrounding tissues. Its wavelength is non-carcinogenic, ensuring treatment under maximum safety conditions.
Here’s a short explanatory video to better understand its operation.
- Recommended for women and men who want to enhance their daily comfort.
