  • Publication number: 20070185552
    Abstract: A method for laser anti-inflammatory treatment of painful symptomatologies and for tissue regeneration includes generating a pulsed laser beam with laser at a wavelength between 0.75 and 2.5 micrometers. The laser energy is conveyed to a hand unit where the laser beam is preferably defocused. The operator then applies the defocused laser beam the skin of a patient in need of treatment. The average power density per pulse of the defocused laser beam on the skin being 8 W/cm2 per pulse or more.

  • Publication number: 20060189967
    Abstract: Described herein are a device and a method for the treatment of varicose veins via laser radiation, and in particular using a holmium laser. The radiation of a laser source (5) is injected in a fiber (3) that can be inserted in the vessel to be treated. The laser source emits a radiation such as to cause a hyalinizing sclerosis with structural modifications both to the fibers of the collagen (shrinkage) and to the extracellular matrix of the median coat of the vein by the photothermal effect, substantially without thermal stress of the morphological component of the tunica media and of the tunica intima.

  • Patent number: 6206873
    Abstract: A device and method for the removal of subcutaneous adipose layers with a laser source, optical fiber for conveying the laser ben emitted by the first source and a hollow needle f or guiding the fiber. The fiber ends in the vicinity of the end of the needle. The laser beam is generated with an intensity and a wavelength for liquefying, and maintaining liquid, the adipose cells. The laser beam from the optical fiber irradiates adipose cells in the adipose layer to transform the adipose cells into, and maintain the adipose cells as, a liquid substance.
