HIGH POWER LASER THERAPY--General Introduction

HIGH POWER LASER THERAPY--General Introduction

HIGH POWER LASERS
10 watt – 15 watt
30 watt – 60 watt

POWER. 
High Power Laser Therapy (HPLT) delivers  up to 1,500 times more therapeutic energy than other therapy lasers.
WAVELENGTH.
The optimal single wavelength of 980nm is used for maximum penetration, with choice of odes from continuous wave (CW); single pulse and pulsed modes. Penetration is paramount in order to stimulate deep musculoskeletal, vascular, lymphatic, and neurological structures.

DOSAGE. 
More power combined with the correct wavelength equates to deeper penetration, faster treatment times and delivery of the proper therapeutic dosage, an enhanced ability 
to treat difficult conditions, and ultimately better clinical outcomes.

Acne Laser treatment

1. Active acne

Developments in laser technology now offer a breakthrough in the treatment of active acne. Aesthetic laser systems use a high power laser, such as Nd:YAG (1064 nm), to penetrate the skin and target the bacteria that produces the inflammation associated with acne. This bacteria releases molecules called porphyrins which when exposed to a certain wavelength of light (the laser beam) increase in number until they destroy the bacteria.

2. Acne scars

Lasers have been used to treat acne scars for several years. In such treatments the Er:YAG (2940 nm) laser is used to remove skin so that new skin can form in its place. Unlike chemical peels and dermabrasion with laser resurfacing the penetration depth into the skin is more easily controlled. The laser gently vaporises the acne-scarred surface of the skin so that undamaged skin below is revealed. Unlike many other techniques laser resurfacing is bloodless, gentle and complete recovery is achieved within days.

Some of the laser systems include both an erbium laser that allows the minimal penetration required for the gentle resurfacing of acne-scarred skin, and a neodymium laser to penetrate deeper in order to destroy the active bacteria in acne (propionobacterium). As a result, present laser systems offer a comprehensive solution to the misery of acne.

Skin Superficial lesion Laser treatment

Laser ablation of keratoses allows for the removal of the epidermis and superficial dermis in a controlled and relatively bloodless manner. Clinical studies have shown that the Er:YAG laser is a very effective treatment for keratoses with a clinical and histological improvement of up to 93% after one treatment, and without significant side effects.

Laser treatment of moles works by targeting the melanin pigment found within the mlanocytes of the moles. Laser treatment of moles is usually progressive often requiring multiple treatments. About 70% of patients who have laser treatments to remove their moles notice a marked improvement. Newer and shallower moles and scars respond better than older and deeper scars and moles.

Additional studies show that the appearance of moles continues to improve after the treatment, usually between 3 to 6 months after the treatment was given

Scar Laser removal

Skin resurfacing Er:YAG (2940 nm) lasers work by removing ultra fine layers of the scarred skin. This has two effects, firstly it softens the transition between the scarred tissue and the normal skin surrounding it. Secondly it stimulates the production of new collagen in the scarred area thereby enhancing the skin's capacity to regenerate new cells. Overall the skin is flattened, remodelled and tightened.

While laser treatment of all scars is an effective and superior alternative to traditional treatments, laser treatment of atrophic scars caused by acne or surgery is particularly effective. One study showed that in the treatment of a group of 78 patients 70-90% showed a significant improvement in acne scarring when treated with a Er:YAG laser. In addition the use of Er:YAG lasers has also been shown to be particularly effective in the treatment of scars caused by burns.

Laser Treatment of Spider Veins

 Laser Treatment of Spider Veins

Superficial veins, like spider veins, can be treated extremely effectively with laser therapy. The energy from Diode 980nm laser is absorbed by the blood in the vein, changed into heat and the vein walls destroyed. This process is perfectly safe as other healthy veins will supply blood to the treated area and the body will clear the dead tissue as it clears a bruise. Some patients may only need one treatment but usually up to 3 treatments are required to clear the skin of the spider vein completely.
