Candela GentleMax Pro at ShushRx

At ShushRx, we use the advanced GentleMax Pro laser to safely and effectively treat a wide range of skin concerns. This state-of-the-art technology delivers precise, customizable treatments for long-lasting results with minimal downtime.

GentleMax Pro treatments at ShushRx include:

  • Laser hair removal for all skin tones
  • Cherry hemangioma removal
  • Reduction of visible veins
  • Pigmented lesion treatment (sun spots, age spots, freckles)
  • Collagen stimulation for smoother, firmer skin

Clear Away Visible Veins and Redness

Visible veins, rosacea, and redness can affect your confidence. Our Nd:YAG wavelength laser targets and gently closes unwanted blood vessels beneath the skin, improving clarity and tone.

Targets:
Facial spider veins & broken capillaries
Cherry Hemangioma and redness
Rosacea symptoms

Benefits:
Non-invasive and precise
Little to no downtime
Restores a smooth, even complexion

Collagen Stimulation & Rosacea Treatment

Over time, collagen — the structural protein that keeps your skin firm and youthful — naturally breaks down. The GentleMax Pro uses controlled laser energy to safely heat the dermal layers of the skin, activating fibroblasts and triggering new collagen and elastin production.
This process, known as neocollagenesis, helps restore structure, smooth fine lines, and improve skin tone and texture for a radiant, refreshed complexion.

  • Tighter, firmer, smoother skin
  • Improved elasticity and tone
  • Softer lines and texture refinement
  • Non-invasive with no recovery time
  • Safe and effective for all skin types

Cherry Hemangioma

Cherry Hemangioma Removal with Candela GentleMax Pro
Quick, Comfortable, and Effective Vascular Laser Treatment

At ShushRX Medical Spa & Laser Center in Waltham, Massachusetts, we use the Candela GentleMax Pro® to safely and effectively remove cherry hemangiomas — small, bright-red vascular growths often found on the face, chest, or body. These benign skin lesions are caused by clusters of tiny blood vessels near the surface of the skin, and while harmless, many patients choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons.

Laser Hair Removal Treatments

Say goodbye to constant shaving and waxing. The GentleMax Pro provides permanent reduction of unwanted hair using targeted laser energy that safely destroys hair follicles while protecting your skin.

  • Safe for all skin tones
  • Quick, precise treatments for any area of the body
  • Fewer ingrown hairs and smoother skin
  • Long-lasting results after a short series of sessions
  • Pigmented Lesion Removal (Sun Spots, Age Spots, Freckles)

Pigmented Lesion Removal (Sun Spots, Age Spots, Freckles)

Sun damage and pigmentation can make the skin appear uneven or aged. The GentleMax Pro targets excess melanin, gently breaking up pigment so it can be naturally eliminated by your body.

  • Fades sun spots, age spots, freckles, and hyperpigmentation
  • Reveals brighter, clearer skin
  • Minimal downtime and safe for most skin types
