Resurfacing can be ablative, which vaporizes tissue and creates wounds, or non-ablative which keeps the skin intact. Laser resurfacing is usually done with a 2940 nm Er:YAG laser or a 10,600 nm CO 2 laser. Complete resurfacing was first done with a CO 2 laser. Both erbium and CO 2 are used to treat deep rhytides, sun damage and age spots.
The Halo Laser is a resurfacing treatment that uses both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to smooth skin texture and wrinkles, treat scars, minimize pores, and remove pigmentation.
Laser ablation or photoablation (also called laser blasting [1] [2] [3]) is the process of removing material from a solid (or occasionally liquid) surface by irradiating it with a laser beam. At low laser flux, the material is heated by the absorbed laser energy and evaporates or sublimates .
Laser surgery is a type of surgery that cuts tissue using a laser in contrast to using a scalpel. [ 1 ] Soft-tissue laser surgery is used in a variety of applications in humans ( general surgery , neurosurgery , ENT , dentistry , orthodontics , [ 2 ] and oral and maxillofacial surgery ) as well as veterinary [ 3 ] surgical fields.
A prime example is a patient at this hospital who now no longer undergoes frequent seizures because of the success of this treatment. [24] MRI-guided laser ablation is also used for ablating brain, prostate and liver tumors. Heating or freezing are also alternative methods to ablative brain surgery. [25]
