Facial spider vein removal device
Light in the 560–1064 nm range is absorbed by oxyhaemoglobin: the IPLASER 560 handpiece works on spider veins and redness on the face.
- 560–1064 nmworking range of the handpiece
- 3pulses per flash
- 1–3 cm²smallest local area
The target is the blood in the vessel. The skin around it cools in the pauses between pulses.
How it works
The target is the blood in the vessel
Oxyhaemoglobin in the vessel absorbs the light of the 560 handpiece more strongly than the surrounding skin. Three pulses with pauses let the vessel warm up and the skin cool down between them.
- Pulse 7 msLight is absorbed by the target pigment
- Pause 300 msThe skin releases heat and cools down
- Three pulsesHeat builds up in the target without a pain peak
The treatment
