Ruby laser in the "long pulse mode"

indications:

• tattoos

• age spots

• sunspots

• "cafe-au-lait" spots

• chloasma / melasma

• freckles

• postinflammatory hyperpigmentation

• permanent hair removal

Treatment parameter:

Light pulses of wavelength 694nm (visible spectral, red).

Mode of action:

The laser energy is absorbed by the dark pigment (melanin, constituents of skin and hair), or by the dye of the tattoo. The dyes are being absorbed through the momentary heating and are then absorbed by the body, and respectively the hair root is permanently damaged.

Duration of treatment:

In case of the permanent hair removal and tattoo removal multiple sessions are always required. Caused by other conditions, a session can be sufficient.

Soreness:

Comparable with pinpricks. Depending on pain sensitivity and localization a surface- effective anesthetic cream can be applied.

After- therapy: Sun protection
