What exactly is Vascular Laser Treatment with Clarity II?
Clarity II uses the ND:YAG (Neodymium-Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) laser, which is a solid-state laser that operates at a wavelength of 1064 nm. This specific wavelength is deeply penetrative, allowing it to target and treat deeper layers of the skin without affecting the surface. Its properties make it particularly effective in targeting hemoglobin within blood vessels, making it ideal for treating vascular concerns like broken capillaries and visible veins. Additionally, its selective absorption ensures minimal damage to surrounding tissues, which promotes quicker recovery and lessens potential side effects.
How does the Clarity II laser work for vascular concerns?
The laser emits a precise wavelength that is absorbed by the hemoglobin in blood vessels. This causes the blood to coagulate and the vessel to break down, which is then naturally absorbed by the body.
