Fractional Technologies with Palomar Star Lux |
| |
|
Palomar developed and patented Fractional Photothermolysis to create a revolutionary treatment: soft tissue coagulation and non-ablative skin resurfacing with high efficacy and no downtime.
The Palomar Lux1540™ Fractional Laser Handpiece delivers light in an array of high precision microbeams. These microbeams create narrow, deep columns of tissue coagulation, while sparing the tissue surrounding the columns from damage |

|
The Healing Process... |
| |
|
|
The coagulated tissue within the columns initiates a natural healing process that accelerates the formation of new, healthy tissue. Coagulated cellular debris is expelled as the skin is resurfaced.
The Lux1540 process protects the outer tissue from infection as it heals. The result: faster dermal remodeling and skin resurfacing |
