What is the illumia Glass Skin Laser?
The German-designed illumia Glass Skin Laser is a non-surgical medical treatment that harnesses the power of improved laser technology to rejuvenate and revitalise the skin.
This treatment uses a unique 577-nanometer yellow laser wavelength to even out and brighten your skin, effectively addressing concerns like melasma, rosacea, redness, and visible facial veins (spider veins). Compared to the earlier 532nm green laser, our current laser provides 40% higher blood absorption, enabling lower power use during treatment while enhancing effectiveness.
illumia Glass Skin Laser’s unique wavelength targets both melanin and underlying blood vessels, breaking down pigments while reducing the blood supply to pigment-producing cells for prolonged results.
How Does the illumia Glass Skin Laser Work?
The illumia Glass Skin Laser employs a process known as selective photothermolysis to target specific skin concerns with accuracy. Here’s a simplified breakdown of how the illumia Glass Skin Laser works:
Selective Targeting
The 577-nanometer wavelength of the illumia Glass Skin Laser is ideal for targeting pigmented lesions, such as acne, vascular lesions, red or brown spots, and certain birthmarks.
Photothermolysis
The laser emits focused light energy into the skin. This energy is absorbed by the targeted pigmented or vascular lesion, causing it to heat up. The heat generated during treatment breaks down the inflammatory proteins and pigmentation into smaller particles without harming the surrounding skin.
Natural Healing
The body’s natural healing processes can gradually remove the inflammatory proteins and pigmented particles, leading to improved skin texture and a more even complexion.
