Diode Laser

This laser has a longer wavelength of 800nm or 810nm and is recommended for Fitzpatrick skin type’s I-III although it could possibly be used to treat Fitzpatrick skin type IV and V with caution.

Advantages of the Diode

  • Has a longer wavelength so could be used to treat a darker skin
  • Because of the longer wavelength penetration is deeper and safer
