How Does ND YAG Laser Work?

A laser light is passed over the pigmented skin, microscopically shattering the pigment into tiny particles which are more easily processed and eliminated by the body. Most patients undergo a ten minute treatment. A mild to moderate irritation of the overlying skin is to be expected for a few days to a week, depending on the depth and amount of pigment to be removed.

Facial Vascular Lesions and Leg Veins with ND YAG Laser

If you have red or purple vessels on your face or veins affecting the appearance of your legs, ND YAG laser system can safely treat them. The treatment is precise, and comfortable. The Multiple-Sequential Pulsing technology available on this laser is a technological leap forward. Older systems would send energy through the skin, but were limited on the amount of energy that could be delivered as the outer layer of the skin, the epidermis, was susceptible to damage. Multiple-Sequential Pulsing delivers a pulse of energy, pauses to cool the epidermis and protect it from thermal damage, and then deliver another pulse or two. This allows further protection of your skin and delivers more total energy to treat the underlying vascular lesion or vessel. The ND YAG laser feature is a next-generation vascular lesion treatment system, outperforming all others in its class. It is appropriate for all skin colors and types.

Treatment of Leg Veins With the ND YAG Laser

The ND YAG laser system has become the “gold standard” for advanced leg vein treatment. The system can treat deeper spider veins, often appearing as a tangle of blue lines beneath the skin's surface.

How Does the ND YAG Laser Treat Vascular Lesions and Leg Veins?

The light energy emitted by the ND YAG laser penetrates the skin, penetrating the blood vessel or spider vein. The energy generates heat, coagulating the blood within the vein, causing it to collapse, sealing it closed. The blood is rerouted to deeper blood vessels, and the damaged vein slowly disappears as the body sheds the cells naturally. The beauty of the ND YAG laser is the surrounding skin and vessels are protected by the custom cooling feature between each pulse of the laser.

How Long Does It Take To Vascular Lesions Or Leg Veins With The ND YAG Laser?

Our skin naturally produces melanin when exposed to ultraviolet light to protect it but overactive pigment cells cause pigmentation spots, known as age spots. On skin that has had years of sun exposure, age spots appear when melanin becomes clumped or is produced in high concentrations. From the age of about 40 the skin is less able to regenerate from sun exposure and as the skin gets thinner exposing deeper pigmentation from historical sun damage, this becomes more visible on your skin. Generally age spots pose no health risk, however they can be unsightly and create a patchy, less youthful appearance.

Pigmentation Removal with Q-switched ND YAG Laser

ND YAG Laser, uses laser beam energy in nanosecond pulses to break down excess pigmentation. The body's immune system will slowly remove the shattered melanin. ND YAG laser has a specific wavelength of 532nm and 1064nm applied to the skin and absorbed by coloured pigments such as melasma, pigmentation, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, freckles age spots. Depending upon individual patient skin conditions and the treatment objectives, the power settings can be calibrated for laser wavelength precision.
