Q: Describe the data collection, storage and retrieval aspect of the equipment.
A: Lumenis recognizes the importance of accurate patient histories and procedure data, particularly in certain cases. The Lumenis One platform is designed with state-of-the art computer software for the greatest possible ease of data entry and retrieval. In addition, many products have pre-set parameters which will be displayed based on the patient information you enter. On some Lumenis systems, thousands of patient records can be stored for accurate histories and convenient treatment protocols.
Q: Are IPL and the laser beams of Nd:YAG and LightSheer safe?
A.The wavelengths of all three modalities are within parts of the visible and the near infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. They are longer than dangerous X-ray wavelengths, yet shorter than microwaves which can overheat the tissue. The technologies are designed to cause selective heating of lesions, but are safe for the surrounding tissues. To prevent injury to the eyes, all laser and light systems are shipped with wavelength specific safety eyewear. To prevent injury it is always recommended that physicians read and understand the information in the user manual that accompanies their system.
Q: What are IPL Skin Treatments using Photorejuvenation?
A: Lumenis IPL Technology improves the appearance of photoaged skin, removes age spots (sun-induced freckles), most benign brown pigments, redness caused by broken capillaries and gives the skin a smoother, more even tone through a process called Photorejuvenation for face and body. IPL Skin Treatments using Photorejuvenation help restore a more youthful appearance without the patient downtime.
Q: Are patients satisfied with the results of this gentler, more delicate approach?
A: IPL Skin Treatments using Photorejuvenation are recognized for a very high measure of patient satisfaction. Patients are very pleased with treatment results because the process treats the full face, neck, chest or hands, rather than addressing a single isolated area or imperfection. With a series of treatments, IPL technology can help restore a more youthful appearance without patient downtime or a prolonged recovery necessary after other types of treatments.
