MEDLITE C6 LASER

THE MEDLITE C6 LASER




This is a Nd-Yag, Quality Switched laser which has a wavelength of 1064 nanometer. The Medlite C6 laser is made by Hoya ConBio of Fremont, California and is an exceptionally stable and powerful laser system.

The wavelength makes this laser an ideal one for the treatment of dark and pigmented lesions like Melasma, Freckles, Lentigines. It is also very good for skin rejuvenation and tattoo removal.

TATTOO REMOVAL
Although a tattoo looks like a simple painting on the skin, it’s actually a series of ink deposits placed deep into the skin – designed to last forever. The reality is that thousands of people decide to remove their tattoos each year because the designs are no longer relevant to their lifestyle. Lasers are the answer.

Lasers are the safest and most effect way to remove tattoos. The MedLite C6 and RevLite are the gold standard tools for this sophisticated procedure, using up to four different wavelengths to remove multiple colors of tattoo ink.

The MedLite C6 and use PhotoAcoustic energy to safely penetrate the skin and target the tattoo at its core. Each pass of the laser vibrates and gently shatters the tattoo ink into micro-particles that are eventually eliminated through the body’s natural processes. Because the laser delivers the energy in a very precise ‘beam,’ physicians can trace the design without damaging the surrounding skin.



SUN SPOTS/ PHOTODAMAGE
Sun spots, age spots, “liver” spots – these are names for the small brown spots that sometimes appear on your face and hands, caused by photodamage, or sun exposure. These solar lentigenes can emerge at any age and on any skin type, although people with light skin are most susceptible. Over time, the spots can darken or even grow to become unsightly ‘splotches.’
The best prevention, of course, is daily sunscreen. For those who haven’t been careful in the sun, lasers can help restore even skin tone.
The PhotoAcoustic energy of the MedLite C6 safely targets the individual spots, gently breaking the pigment into tiny particles. You’ll notice the spot turning gray or white for a few minutes, a natural response of the skin as it absorbs the energy. The spot will then turn darker and sloughs off completely within one to two weeks. At this point, lighter skin starts to blend in as it heals, promoting an even toned appearance.



SUN SPOTS (LENTIGINES) /FRECKLES

When the wavelength of the Medlite C6 is doubled, we can use it effectively to treat lentigines, freckles and other brown spots.

WRINKLES
Wrinkles are a natural part of aging. Over time, our facial skin loses collagen, creating small depressions in the structure of our skin that result in lines, wrinkles or folds.
Topical creams and lotions work to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by temporarily plumping the skin, usually by using a water-attracting formula.
Lasers work from the inside out, actually reducing the wrinkles by stimulating collagen underneath the skin’s surface. The MedLite C6 use PhotoAcoustic energy to gently and safely target the collagen scaffolding, causing new collagen to grow over time, replacing the lost collagen and smoothing the lines and wrinkles.
For deep wrinkles and folds, many physicians will recommend using dermal fillers to replenish larger amounts of lost collagen quickly. Injectable fillers can be used in combination with laser treatment for optimum overall results.



                                                       
SKIN REJUVENATION

Chances are your skincare regimen already includes basic essentials: sunscreen, high-quality cleanser and moisturizer, plus specific treatment products for problems. If you want to take your skincare to the next level, lasers might be the answer.
PhotoAcoustic lasers are an excellent way to create a smoother, healthier-looking complexion while stimulating ongoing collagen growth. Because lasers penetrate deeper than any cream or lotion, they can provide a dramatic boost to your beauty routine.
After the first treatment with a MedLite C6 or RevLite, you’ll notice an immediate improvement in the texture and appearance of your skin, with best results after four to six monthly treatments. Changes you can expect include:
  • smaller pore size
  • improvement in skin’s firmness and elasticity
  • more even skin tone, eliminating brown spots, age/sun spots and blotchy areas
  • smoother texture
  • sun spots, brown spots and uneven skin tone
  • removal of fine dark hair above lips, around sides of face
  • a more refreshed appearance
