Aesthetic LASER SAFETY

Don't blame the laser/ energy devices- its the provider that controls the parameters and selects suitable (unsuitable) patients. Read more. Lasers and energy devices used in cosmetic surgery come in many different wavelengths, energy sources and power. Some devices are extraordinarily powerful, and despite company denials, have the potential to ‘melt’ fat. For example, SculpSure a body contouring device made by Cynosure was designed to do exactly that. This laser is a diode driven 1064 Nm device, applied to unwanted fat areas for a time of 20 minutes. This causes thermogenic lipolysis, or heat induced fat reduction. In the context of facial rejuvenation, the majority of lasers can not cause destruction of fat deposits, especially with ‘on label application.’ Examples of energy controlled lasers include Fraxel Dual 1927-1550, Pico lasers (Picosure, Picoway, Enlighten etc.), Revlite lasers, nano laser, non-ablative lasers including erbium glass, NA wavelengths 1440-1550, vascular lasers, 532, 585, 595, 755, long pulse 1064, and many other devices used in the context of onlabel skin rejuvenation. Powerful devices such as Ultherapy, Ultraformer, old versions of Thermage, RF insulated microneedling and medical grade CO2 laser (Ultrapulse comes into mind), all have the ability to penetrate de
