Fotona’s SP line of laser systems are designed to perform all major aesthetic treatments. By combining two complementary laser wavelengths Fotona SP lasers function as highly versatile, multi-purpose systems that can perform an exceptionally wide range of applications in aesthetics, surgery and gynecology. Fotona's Nd:YAG wavelength is effective for reaching the deepest layers of the skin, while the Er:YAG wavelength is ideal for brushing away surface imperfections to reveal visually attractive, long-lasting results
The SP line’s high-performance Er:YAG laser inherently ablates the skin surface more precisely than other laser technologies. Er:YAG energy is highly absorbed in water – the main target chromophore for skin resurfacing – and can thus vaporize skin with micron-level precision and very little thermal conduction. This keeps undesired effects such as hypopigmentation and persistent erythema, as well as recovery time, to a minimum. Fotona’s proprietary VSP (Variable Square Pulse) technology in the SP line can be accurately tuned from varying “cold” ablation to “hot” and non-ablative thermal ratios. Full customizability allows you to precisely attain the clinical outcomes your patients desire.
Fotona’s Nd:YAG laser perfectly complements the Er:YAG laser’s ablative action with its ability to penetrate deeply into skin to create thermal effects without damaging the skin surface. Its homogeneous absorption in skin and low absorption in melanin allow it to be safely used with all skin types. Compared to conventional technologies, Fotona’s proprietary Nd:YAG VSP pulses create virtually instantaneous temperature increases that are limited to the targeted structures only.
