VELAS Lipolysis Laser

VELAS lipolysis is a safe, effective, minimally invasive procedure that uses a laser to liquefy and remove unwanted fat in targeted body zones. In addition to removing unwanted fat, Lipotherme’s thermal effect causes the skin to contract, resulting in firmer, smoother skin that further enhances your body shaping goals.

Faster - Reduced procedure time means less time in the doctor’s office

Minimally invasive - Least invasive of all lipolysis procedures

Minimal Healing - Advanced technology means you’ll be back in action in less time

Minimal Discomfort - Patented technology allows you to remain awake during the procedure

Laser DCR Surgery

Laser DCR is a simple and extremely short procedure taking only a few minutes for completion- on an average 5 to 10 minutes. There is no visible scar as no skin incision is required for the procedure. Laser DCR is associated with virtually no pain or bleeding as it is a minimally invasive procedure with the least trauma to the tissues. It needs no anesthesia (injection) and can be performed with anaesthetic drops itself. Laser DCR is also a much safer treatment option especially for the aged as it can be performed as an outpatient surgery and generates minimal intra and post surgical morbidity. This procedure is also associated with a lower recurrence rate.

MEDICAL THERAPY AT HIGH-EMITTING POWER

MEDICAL THERAPY AT HIGH-EMITTING POWER

Class IV High Power Laser Therapy (HPLT) is able to treat all the same conditions that respond well to Cold Laser Therapy including a great many more. Because High Power Lasers are able to penetrate more deeply into body tissues the vast majority of muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints, and nerves and skin can be treated effectively. Treatment times are also dramatically reduced when treating with High Power Laser Therapy. Low Power Lasers (25-500mW) would often require 60-120 minutes in order to deliver a Therapeutic Dose to the affected body part. High Power Laser Therapy (500mW – 7,500mW) deliver an equivalent Therapeutic Dose in a fraction of the time. In fact, the Avicenna High Power Laser (the Avicenna Laser, the most powerful therapeutic laser ever developed, operates at 7,500mW) can deliver a Therapeutic Dose of laser energy to many injured parts of the body within 5-15 minutes!

In summary, High Power Laser Therapy can Treat Many More Conditions in Much Less Time with Far Better Results than Cold Laser.

Use of Diode Laser in ENT Surgery

ENT Surgeons use different types of lasers like Co2, KTP, Nd.YAG and Diode Laser in their practice.

Diode Laser

This a lightweight, portable, battery supported ,980-nm wavelength Diode laser with a fiber optic delivery system is being used widely the field of otolaryngology, as it is less expensive.

The laser transmits radiation via a flexible quartz fiber optic cable that can be used with a set of intra nasal, micro laryngeal hand pieces. These hand pieces allow for optimal laser focusing.

Light at its particular wavelength is absorbed by tissues relatively independent of tissue type. Tissue response at this wavelength is determined by the absorption of water as well as by absorption of endogenous components such as hemoglobin and melanin. As a result, the diode laser has a large (up to 10 mm) penetration depth in biologic tissue, which makes it ideal for photo coagulation. By contrast, the Co2 laser has a very shallow penetration depth and thus is best used for tissue vaporization.

This laser compares favorably with several of the other thermal lasers used in otolaryngology; its tissue-cutting and coagulation effect is comparable to that of other commonly used lasers.

The Diode laser’s flexible fiber delivery system is compatible with hollow instruments, allows for coaxial vision, and is ideally suited for intranasal, oral and micro laryngeal use.

The Diode laser is housed in a portable case and light weight so it can be easily transported between the OPD and the operating room. The length of set-up time is generally less than 5 minutes, and no warm-up period is necessary. It is battery supported in case of power failure.

Application techniques

1. It can be used in contact mode, in which the tip of the fiber is placed directly on the surface of the tissue. This mode is effective for both photocoagulation and vaporization of tissue, depending on the power density. At the low- or mid-power range, coagulation occurs; at a higher level, vaporization occurs.

2. The laser can be used in near-contact mode, in which the tip of the fiber remains several millimeters apart from the tissue. This mode is largely used for tissue photo coagulation.

3. The laser can be used for interstitial laser-induced thermotherapy, a minimally invasive method of treating both benign and malignant tumors. The laser is placed through puncture holes in the skin, and its energy is absorbed by local tissues. This hyperthermic state causes either immediate or delayed tissue necrosis via coagulation.

4. In the clinic most cases can be done after administering a topical anesthetic and a decongestant spray to the nasal cavity, but micro laryngeal surgery needs General anesthesia with special fleximetalic tube to prevent fire hazard.

Conclusion

• Its portability and functional diversity make it an attractive alternative to the other laser machines like Co2 and KTP.

• Most cases can be done under LA in the OPD set up

• Very cost effective if other departments like, Dental and Ophthalmology share the equipment

Group Of Lasers For Dental Low Level Laser Therapy

LASER DENTISTRY/LOW LEVEL LASER THERAPY: Therapeutic lasers expand the scope of dentistry

This group of lasers includes:

• The helium-neon (HeNe) laser was the first commercially offered dental laser in the 1980s. A gas laser with a main wavelength of 632.8 nm, it had the disadvantage of low output (1-2 mW) and brittle fiber optics with high power loss. HeNe lasers are now available with power of up to 60 mW, much more durable fiber, and improved transmittance. Although comparatively low-powered, HeNe light has the advantage of a long length of coherence.
• The HeNe laser has largely been replaced by technically less sophisticated and consequently less expensive InGaAlP lasers, which work at wavelengths of 633 - 690 nm and offer power of several hundred milliwatts. Being diode-based, the length of coherence is much shorter and the fluence used in successful HeNe studies has to be at least doubled with the red diodes to obtain similar results.
• GaAlAs lasers now dominate the market, probably because inexpensive diodes at these wavelengths have been available for a long time. The most common wavelength, 808 nm, has the best optical penetration into tissue. GaAlAs lasers can provide output in the watt range, though typical outputs are 100 - 500 mW.
• The GaAs laser is a pulsed laser, emitting at 904 nm, that requires lower dosages than other wavelengths. This laser has relatively complicated electronics–which may be the reason not many manufacturers offer them. Typical output is 10 - 100 mW.
