Laser
stands for light amplification
by stimulated emissions
of radiation. Lasers work by producing an
intense beam of bright light that travels in one direction.
Lasers can vaporize and diminish wrinkles, scars, and blemishes,
seal blood vessels, or penetrate deeper into the skin.
Lasers have a unique ability to produce one color (wavelength)
of light, which can be varied in intensity and pulse duration.
There are many lasers, each producing a specific color (wavelength)
of light for a specific
purpose, thus allowing your practitioner to use different
laser technologies to treat specific skin conditions. |
