Alexandrite Laser Therapy
The alexandrite laser is a state-of-the-art system utilizing dual wavelengths (755nm + 1064nm) to target specific pigments in the skin. It is highly effective for hair removal and treating pigmentation issues like brown spots and birthmarks. The laser delivers focused light energy absorbed by the targeted pigment, heating and breaking it down while protecting the surrounding tissue.
Selective Photothermolysis
Using Cr3+:BeAl2O4 crystals, the long-pulse laser creates selective photothermolysis. Target tissues absorb more laser light than normal tissue, allowing for precise destruction of follicles or lesions with minimal downtime. It is FDA-approved and widely recognized for safety and effectiveness in aesthetic dermatology.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What skin concerns can this laser treat?
A: It is highly effective for permanent hair removal, pigmented lesions (sun spots, freckles), and vascular issues like spider veins.
Q: Does the treatment hurt?
A: Most patients feel a mild heat sensation, similar to a light sunburn. The integrated DCD Cryogen and Air cooling systems significantly improve comfort.
Q: How long does a typical session take?
A: Sessions are quick, usually around 15 minutes depending on the size of the treatment area.
Q: Is there any downtime after treatment?
A: Downtime is minimal. Treated spots may darken before flaking off naturally. It is important to avoid sun exposure and use SPF.
Q: Why are there two wavelengths (755nm and 1064nm)?
A: The 755nm wavelength is ideal for lighter skin types and melanin absorption, while the 1064nm (Nd:YAG) is safer for darker skin and deeper vascular treatments.
Q: Can the machine work continuously?
A: Yes, thanks to the integrated TEC cooling part and high-capacity capacitor bank, the machine is designed for 24-hour continuous work in a professional setting.
