Candela NdYag Laser Technology
Modern Technology for Long-Term Hair Removal
Many technologies cannot treat every skin tone safely. The Candela GentleYag Pro-U is designed to treat patients of all skin types, so we can offer laser hair removal to a far wider range of clients.
The system uses intense beams of light to safely heat the treatment area without harming the surrounding tissue. The targeted cells absorb the heat, making treatment safe and effective for everything from hair removal to skin rejuvenation.
It is ideal for individuals with darker skin tones, with proven results diminishing ingrown hairs, beard bumps, and hyperpigmentation.

Who Is Laser Good For?
A Personalized, Consultation-Led Plan
Every client starts with a thorough consultation so we can build a treatment plan around you, not a generic menu.
Laser hair removal is open to everyone: women, men, cis, transgender, gender non-conforming, and non-binary individuals, and people of all body shapes, sizes, and abilities. It can also help those who experience PCOS-related or hormone-influenced hair growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Laser Hair Removal Questions, Answered
How much does laser hair removal cost in Hamilton?
Pricing depends on the treatment area, treatment length, technology used, and whether a package is appropriate. Radiance confirms pricing during consultation so the quote matches your skin, goals, and treatment plan. Package options and Beautifi financing may be available for higher-ticket plans, and the clinic will explain the total before treatment begins.
How many laser hair removal sessions do I need?
Most clients need a series because hair grows in cycles and the laser is most effective during active growth. Six to eight sessions is common, but the exact number depends on the area, hair colour, skin type, hormones, and previous hair removal history. Some clients book maintenance sessions after the main series.
Is laser hair removal safe for darker skin tones?
Radiance consults before treatment to confirm skin type and settings. Modern NdYag technology can be appropriate for a broader range of skin tones when used by trained providers with conservative settings and clear aftercare. A patch test or adjusted plan may be recommended when safety needs extra confirmation.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Sensation varies by body area and individual sensitivity. Many clients describe laser pulses as a quick snap or heat sensation. Cooling, careful settings, and clear pacing help keep treatment manageable. More sensitive areas can be discussed during consultation so expectations and comfort options are clear.
Is laser hair removal available in a trans-affirming clinic?
Yes. Radiance is explicitly welcoming to transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming, and LGBTQ2S+ clients. Names, pronouns, privacy, comfort, and treatment goals are handled with care. The consultation focuses on the skin, hair, treatment area, medical context, and desired outcome rather than assumptions about gender.
