About This Treatment

Minimally Invasive Precision Laser Procedures

The Er:YAG wavelength enables clean, haemostatic cutting and ablation of superficial tissue, while the Nd:YAG wavelength can assist with deeper vascular targets. These capabilities may be used for a range of minor surgical and dermatological procedures including lesion excision, soft tissue revision, and other clinically indicated interventions — all performed by qualified medical professionals. Procedures are individually planned following thorough clinical assessment.

01

Laser Energy Delivery

Controlled laser energy is delivered to the target tissue via a precision handpiece, allowing the practitioner to direct energy accurately to the intended site.

02

Tissue Interaction

Depending on the wavelength and mode selected, the laser energy can cut, ablate, coagulate, or vaporise tissue to achieve the desired surgical effect.
