Serenity Machine Makes Laser Hair Removal Virtually Painless

Astoria Medical Spa is committed to providing its patients with safe, high quality treatment. In our efforts to provide clients with the latest technology, we are very pleased to announce the incorporation of the Serenity Pneumatic Skin Flattening Device for virtually pain-free Laser Hair Removal. 

The Serenity Pro, a device produced by Candela Lasers, relies on Pneumatic Skin Flattening Technology (PSF™). PSF works by creating a vacuum through a chamber that pushes blood away from the treatment site to block pain signals to the brain. This process relies on afferent inhibition of pain transmission to the vertebral column (also known as the “Gate Theory”). When skin receptors sense a suctioning effect, they transmit a fast neural signal to the vertebral column which blocks the pain nerve synaptic gap, therefore pain signals never reach the brain.
