Cairns Nd:YAG Laser
The Nd:YAG is a vascular laser that delivers a single wavelength of light in a focused synchronised pulse during treatment.
When choosing different fluency (energy), and pulse duration along with the skin cooling control they can be used to treat specific skin changes or conditions.
The laser will destroy the lesion being treated leaving the surrounding tissue unharmed.
What is the process during the Nd:YAG laser treatment?
Safety eyewear will be worn during the treatment. A sensation like an elastic band slapping on your skin will be felt including a heat sensation. Post-treatment: A sunburn-like reaction is common after the treatment and can last a few hours or 1-2 days.
Redness and swelling are also common and bruising can occur along with scabbing or crusting. Post-care involves strict sun protection and ample moisturization.
